Organizations that rely on pagers can’t achieve patient satisfaction. They’re left with a less collaborative, more disruptive hardware that hinders care team communication and prolongs care delivery leading to dissatisfaction, frustration and ultimately, patient churn.
According to a study, 29 percent of healthcare respondents said that pagers were a poor form of communication. Facilities require advanced technology and effective processes to reduce patient churn.
Inefficient communications during critical clinical workflows costs the average U.S. hospital approximately $1.75 million annually.
Poor communication will cost health organizations much more than hefty costs. According to 7,000 facilities, 48 percent of communication failures occurred within ambulatory care, as well as the inpatient setting at 44 percent. Consequently, this tarnishes patient-to-specialist relationships and likely leads to patient churn.
