Call Center Software Built for Your Industry

Just like you wouldn’t want to buy a car part that’s designed for an entirely different make and model than your car, you don’t want to be using a call center software that’s not designed for your call center’s industry specialization.

The best way to serve your customers and get the results you want is by using a call center software that is tailored to serving your industry and understands your needs. While some solutions are universal and used by all, the way solutions are utilized can differ depending on what vertical you specialize in.

Luckily, TCN’s call center software is built for your industry — complete with solutions that specifically help meet your needs. Feel free to find your industry below and take a look at how TCN’s solutions can help you improve performance and efficiency.

Accounts Receivable Management/Collections Call Centers

Improving your collections begins with improving your connections. Your collection agency must be equipped with the tools that allow you to connect and communicate with consumers. In the fast-paced world of technology, customer expectations are changing and it’s important to connect with them through their preferred channels, i.e. text, email or chat. 

With omnichannel solutions, your collection agents can communicate with consumers seamlessly on multiple channels — all on one dashboard. Additional tools such as dialers, Business Intelligence reporting and omnichannel, help your collection agency reach its full potential. 

Call center compliance is a big focus for the collections industry especially. Compliance regulations are continuously changing and being modified to target more specific consumer concerns. The TCPA, Regulation F, STIR/SHAKEN and other compliance rulings are a lot for collection call centers to keep up to date on; but the penalties for non-compliance are enough to give call center managers nightmares. 

Thankfully, TCN’s middle name is compliance — not really, but maybe it should be, because TCN’s platform offers an entire Compliance Solutions Suite. TCN’s Natural Language Compliance tool allows you to create automation rules to help stay compliant using simple verbiage. 

TCN’s additional compliance solutions such as Manually Approved Calling, allow you to double-check your compliance and minimize risk — helping you sleep easier at night. Take a look at a quick compliance walkthrough of how TCN’s tools can be utilized to automate your compliance here.

BPO Call Centers

A Bussiness Process Outsourcing (BPO) needs a call center platform that can be deployed across multiple centers, without needing updates and hardware maintenance. BPOs can offer numerous services to companies of different industries, which is why it’s essential to have a software solution that offers solutions that can roll with the punches and meet your changing needs.

A world-renowned top ten BPO wanted to increase account penetration and Right Party Contacts (RPC’s) on an underperforming program. The BPO then switched to TCN, whose Business Intelligence tool was key to tracking performance while maintaining the desired ownership balance. As a result, the client saw an increase of over 65% on their key performance indicator.

Healthcare Call Centers

As a call center in the healthcare industry, there are two sides of operations that must be focused on. 

One side: The patients and your customer service. Just like you, healthcare patients are busy and want convenience. One of the essential tools for providing the best customer service to patients is an IVR system that helps patients find the information they’re looking for quickly — such as looking up their account balance or getting connected to the right agent who can answer their questions. 

Notifying patients of upcoming payments or appointments via call or text is also a great way to keep them informed and satisfied. Pre-registration phone calls also help patients save time once they arrive for their appointments and help waiting rooms turnover smoothly. Post-call surveys have also proven to be extremely effective in gathering feedback from patients about their experience with the call center agent. Utilizing post-call surveys is a perfect way to make your patients feel heard while gathering useful insights into how your employees are performing.

In addition, one feature that goes a long way in the healthcare industry is the ability to have patients make payments securely through a link sent via text message. When a patient calls to make a payment, agents can simply send a text message with a secure link that directs them to the payment portal while staying on the phone with the patient. This eliminates the need for passing sensitive information along to an agent and streamlines the process for collecting payments. All of these tools and more are available in TCN’s cloud-based platform.

The other side of a healthcare call center operations: The behind the scenes with data and reporting. On the backend of your healthcare call center operations, you need to make sure things are running smoothly and efficiently. TCN’s data and reporting solutions help you keep track of what’s going on when your agents are communicating with patients, how many calls you get and ways to improve training practices. Tracking your call center operations will ensure you are reaching your goals and providing the best possible customer experience.

Newspaper Call Centers

An IVR system is vital for a newspaper call center to ensure consumers can update billing information, make changes to their subscriptions or resolve an issue.
