What Health System Leaders Say

Vendor evaluation questions

The questions health systems ask when comparing AI agent options: integration, implementation, safety, and what sets a purpose-built platform apart.

How does AI compare to traditional IVR systems?

Traditional IVR makes patients navigate menu trees, which drives frustration and hang-ups. ActiumHealth AI agents understand natural language: patients simply say what they need, and the agent resolves the request end-to-end rather than just routing the call. MemorialCare deployed ActiumHealth to answer 100% of 150,000 monthly inbound calls with a multilingual voice agent, fully EHR-integrated in 12 weeks.

What is the typical ROI of implementing AI in healthcare call centers?

Houston Methodist created $18 million in staffing capacity, the equivalent of 239 full-time employees, and an academic medical center generated $39 million in additional appointment revenue through automated referral outreach. Most organizations reach ROI within 3 to 6 months through recovered staffing capacity, increased patient capture, and reduced call abandonment.

What types of healthcare calls are best suited for automation?

High-volume routine calls: appointment scheduling, prescription refills, department transfers, basic information requests, insurance verification, and reminders. These represent 50 to 70% of typical hospital call volume and require no clinical judgment. Outbound works the same way: reminders, care gap outreach, post-discharge check-ins, and preventive care campaigns.

What does a typical implementation process look like?

Four phases: system integration and workflow mapping, customization and testing, staff training and soft launch, then full deployment and optimization. Launch takes roughly 8 weeks without an EHR integration and 12 weeks with one, depending on organizational readiness. A dedicated implementation team with deep healthcare experience manages change alongside staff.

How does the platform integrate with existing EHR systems?

Through APIs supporting Epic, Cerner, Meditech, and other leading platforms. Patients self-serve for appointments, prescription refills, and routine tasks, with the agent reading from and writing back to the record without staff intervention.

How do AI agents avoid saying something wrong?

The AI is trained specifically for healthcare with built-in guardrails: it never provides medical advice, maintains HIPAA compliance, and transfers complex cases to staff with full context. Every interaction is transcribed, scored, and monitored through the Insights platform, so quality assurance covers 100% of conversations rather than a sample.

A CCaaS provider already offers an AI agent. What does ActiumHealth do differently?

Generic agents lack healthcare-specific training and EHR integration. ActiumHealth understands medical terminology, carries HIPAA and regulatory compliance built in, and completes EHR tasks like scheduling and refills end-to-end. The platform is purpose-built for healthcare and vetted across more than 70 million automated patient calls.

What is the pricing model?

Pricing is based on call volume and the features selected. Factors include the number of locations, EHR integrations, and customization needs. The healthcare ROI calculator gives a volume-based estimate of the opportunity before any sales conversation.
