Patient Communication and Scheduling Patterns During COVID-19

To dive into what patterns healthcare organizations are seeing with patients as we work through COVID-19 and to share some lessons learned, we sat down with Sarah Bennight, Director, Marketing at Stericycle Communication Solutions.  Stericycle is on the front lines of this as they provide a mix of live voice, automated patient communication, and patient self scheduling solutions to healthcare institutions.   Along with discussing the impacts of COVID-19 on healthcare organizations, Bennight also shares what she thinks some of the costs of delayed care are going to be.  Plus, she provides a great insight on the need to overcommunicate during challenging times even though many organizations often react by under communicating.  Then, we ask Sarah to share what she thinks the new virtual waiting room will look like.   Learn more about Stericycle Communication Solutions: https://stericyclecommunications.com/
