HOW IT HELPS

Delightful interactions, for patients and staff

Vector

FOR PATIENTS

Navigate with ease

 

Navigator assists patients with common needs with the personal touch of a staff member (who
speaks many languages) and deeper awareness than self-service or a chatbot. 

Navigate with a natural, intuitive experience 

No yelling “speak to a person” into a rigid phone tree. Navigator feels genuinely helpful: patients might ask “can I also follow up on my daughter’s appointment?” or “I also had a prescription I needed to refill.” If the patient wants to speak to a staff member, Navigator can connect them.

    Navigate between voice and SMS

    Navigator can intelligently offer to switch to SMS when a call is dropped, if connection is spotty, or at the patient’s request.

  • Many languages

    Navigate no matter your language

    Navigator automatically responds in the language the patient uses, from Arabic to Zulu (wide variety of languages available).

    Navigate appointments and next steps

FOR STAFF

Save time on inbound calls

Navigator serves patient needs like appointment details, directions, or prescription refills. Staff can spend more time helping patients face-to-face, while maintaining visibility into all
Navigator interactions.

Group 26631

Navigator supports staff with:

  • Fewer calls and portal messages for simple requests.
  • Visibility into every patient interaction in real time, including switches of mode (e.g., voice to SMS) or language.
  • The option to pick up the conversation themselves or at the patient’s request.

Understand each journey with Navigator reporting
Any journey needs a logbook. As patients use Navigator, staff see every interaction – both as part of an individual patient’s communication history and in a logbook-style view. They can even open an interaction
to see more detail.

Frequently asked questions

Why implement Navigator?

Navigator is like having a smart, AI-powered assistant that handles routine tasks for patients and staff. For patients, it helps them book appointments, manage their prescriptions, or reschedule visits without needing to wait on hold. For staff, it means fewer inbound calls and more time spent face-to-face with patients who need help the most. It’s built to make things easier, not more complicated.

 

Is Navigator easy for patients to use?

Absolutely! Navigator interacts with patients in a way that feels natural. Whether they prefer phone or text, it guides them through common tasks like scheduling, confirming appointments, or getting directions, all without needing to log into a portal. It’s simple enough that even tech-shy patients can navigate it comfortably.

 

How secure is patient data with Navigator?

We take security seriously. Navigator is HIPAA-compliant, ISO 27001 certified, and HITRUST CSF certified, meaning it meets the highest standards in healthcare security. Your patients’ data is always handled securely and with care, so you can trust that Navigator keeps everything protected.

 

How does Navigator handle multiple languages?

Navigator can speak the language your patients prefer. Whether it’s English, Spanish, Mandarin, or one of many others, Navigator uses natural language processing to communicate effectively. And if a conversation starts in one language and needs to switch, it handles that too, without skipping a beat.

 

What if a patient wants to speak with a real person?

If a patient needs more help, Navigator doesn’t block them from getting through to a staff member. It’s designed to recognize when a patient might need human assistance and can transfer the conversation to a staff member when needed. It’s about giving patients options, not forcing them into only one way of interacting.

 

Does Navigator integrate with my existing systems?

Yes, Navigator works with the systems you already have in place. It integrates seamlessly with leading EHRs, so everything stays connected without adding complexity. From scheduling to prescription refills, it’s all synced up with your records in real time.

 

Will Navigator reduce my team’s workload?

Navigator takes on routine tasks, like answering common questions, booking appointments, or handling prescription refills, which typically tie up your staff’s time. With fewer calls and portal messages to manage, your team can focus on what they do best: providing excellent care for your patients.
