“Patients were complaining relentlessly about not being able to reach anyone. We weren’t available for patient needs."

“With the consumerization of healthcare, our patients now have more power than ever before. Artera allows us to focus on retaining them, making them happy, and most importantly focusing on our core competency.”

“Managing the portal was quite cumbersome because it didn’t work directly with [our EHR] NextGen. Basically, it was just spitting out a report [of patient responses] that our staff would still have to review, then update in the IT system accordingly.”

“The staff would love for everyone to utilize the texting feature. It’s less burdensome, and it allows them to handle multiple patients almost simultaneously.”

“We would have to try to contact every single patient at the very last minute. It’s incredibly disruptive to try to get ahold of that many patients."

"Health iPass is committed to simplifying the check-in process and payment workflow for patients. Integrating our communications via Artera Harmony accelerates this mission by delivering patients their relevant checkin and payment information via one trusted provider phone number, improving the overall patient experience."
