Case Study: Seattle Dental Clinic
A dental clinic in Seattle was struggling with:
- Lack of bilingual (English–Chinese) front-desk staff, making it difficult to schedule appointments for Chinese-speaking patients efficiently
- High front-desk labor costs and no coverage during weekends or after business hours
- Staff overwhelmed by insurance paperwork and appointment management
Solution:
The clinic hired a bilingual (English–Chinese) Callnovo virtual assistant (40 hours/week) to handle:
- Communication with Chinese-speaking patients
- Insurance verification and documentation
- Appointment scheduling during non-business hours and weekends
Results:
| KPI | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| Weekly Chinese-speaking patient appointments | 10 | 35 |
| Administrative error rate | 12% | 3% |
| After-hours coverage | 0 | 24/7 |
| Patient satisfaction | 82% | 96% |
This not only increased revenue but also enhanced patient experience and reduced the workload on in-house staff.
