“It really helped to have the same shared vision. Partnerships are built by continuous effort. Organizationally, you have to eliminate the walls between IT and the business – we’re all in this together.”

“It’s more so about reducing cumbersome tasks to focus more attention on the patients who truly need to talk to someone.”

“I think our relationship with them had gotten stale — we just didn’t feel like they were keeping up with the industry. Billing was a challenge, we could never get anyone to pick up the phone or get help, and the system was always changing.”

“For me, choosing the right vendor partner relies on looking well beyond the immediate business need at hand, or the transactional perspective, and instead, look to the full realm of possibilities and beyond.”

“Our partnership with [Artera] revolutionized the way we care for our patients – both inside our four walls and outside.”

“Patients were asking for it. You can get text messages from your hairstylist or veterinarian — the technology is clearly available — why not receive them from your doctor’s office?”

“What we found is that seniors text more than people believe, especially those who are moving here to retire from other areas.”

“It’s just a better way to communicate overall. Sometimes our patients are busy at work and can’t get to the phone, so texting enables them to respond when they can.”

"Health iPass is committed to simplifying the check-in process and payment workflow for patients.

“Implementing Artera was the best decision Mountain View Medical Center made all year.”

“We’ve discovered that people can’t ignore text messages; it’s just ingrained in us. Often they are surprised that they have a balance at all, even though we had mailed statements and called multiple times.”

“Just walk into any waiting room. Everyone is on their phones, texting. With Artera, we are meeting them where they already are.”

“It has become abundantly clear that our population is not interested in remembering another login. Conversational messaging invites patients to respond via text to reschedule versus having to go into a completely different platform, which can act as an added barrier to care.”
