Secure, After-Hours Answering Service for Health Care
Patient care doesn’t end when the office closes. From unexpected symptoms to late-night medication concerns, patients need access to safe, professional guidance around the clock. That’s why TriageLogic provides a secure, after-hours answering service for health care providers that connects patients with licensed RNs. These nurses assess symptoms, recommend the types of providers that patients should see, and escalate urgent cases to your on-call providers when available. Every call is documented thoroughly using HIPAA-compliant triage software, with patient summaries delivered to your team through EHR-compatible files.
Why Security Matters in After-Hours Care
Generic medical answering services may lack the secure infrastructure and clinical expertise required to manage patient data appropriately. Our service, Nurse Triage On Call, prioritizes both care and compliance.
We use encrypted communication over a private cloud, along with role-based access to protect patient privacy. Combined with the clinical knowledge from our triage nurses, you’ll have a service that helps patients find the right levels of care in the right windows of time.
How Nurse Triage On Call Works
Our after-hours triage service acts as an extension of your practice. If needed, we can even provide 24/7 support.
When patients go through normal intake after hours, here’s what they can expect.
- Licensed RNs return their calls. Nurses prioritize patient messages based on urgency, then contact them using your practice’s name.
- All symptoms are evaluated. Nurses follow the latest Schmitt-Thompson protocols to identify and evaluate all relevant symptoms that patients are experiencing to determine the severity of their conditions.
- Cases are escalated when urgent. Urgent cases are forwarded to your on-call providers with complete, clinically accurate notes. If providers are not available, patients are referred to urgent care or the ER.
- Patient documents are submitted to your team. All patient interactions are documented and shared with your staff through EHR-compatible files for continuity of care.
This secure, patient-focused process helps healthcare providers deliver after-hours support without compromising privacy or safety.
