Everyday problems

Six situations that cost clinics patients

01

A busy front desk

Problem The phone rings while the receptionist is dealing with the patient in front of them. The caller doesn’t wait.

With Merhallo The assistant picks up, and your receptionist can focus on the patient in front of them.

02

Out-of-hours calls

Problem Most patients call after work or at the weekend, when the clinic is closed.

With Merhallo It takes appointment requests at night and at weekends. Your list is ready in the morning.

03

No-shows

Problem A forgotten appointment means an empty chair, and it’s too late to fill it.

With Merhallo It calls the patient before the appointment to confirm, so you hear about cancellations early.

04

International patients

Problem A patient travelling for treatment can’t find anyone who speaks their language.

With Merhallo It speaks more than 20 languages, including German, English, Arabic and Russian.

05

Repeated questions

Problem Prices, the address, accepted insurers: the same questions are answered dozens of times a day.

With Merhallo It answers from the information you add. If you don’t want it to quote prices, it won’t.

06

Callbacks that never happen

Problem The “to call back” list on a scrap of paper is lost by the end of the day.

With Merhallo Every request is logged with a name, phone number and subject. Nobody is forgotten.

Clinic

Frequently asked questions

No. The assistant doesn’t diagnose and doesn’t recommend medication or treatment. If it senses an emergency, it directs the caller to emergency services or to the line your clinic has specified.

That’s up to you. If you add your price list, it answers. If you’d rather it didn’t, it says the cost becomes clear after an examination and steers the caller towards an appointment.

Calls are visible only in your account and travel over an encrypted connection. A privacy notice and a data processing agreement are available on every plan.

The assistant takes the request with the date, time and preferred practitioner and puts it in your dashboard; your team confirms. On the Pro and Enterprise plans, a custom connection to your appointment software can be set up.
