About Us

Managed service solutions dedicated to transforming the caller experience.

Healthtech Purpose-Built to Reduce Friction Between Callers and the Resources They Need

Scott D Website Headshot

Call center operations and patient experience improves when HIPAA compliant IVRs and AI agents assist human agents to better support a great patient experience. The majority of healthcare consumers still call on the phone to access care.

We’re dedicated to helping you deliver better customer experiences at scale. When it comes to service, organizations please customers primarily by helping them solve their problems quickly and easily. Callers should be able to speak naturally and connect quickly with the resources they need. We get callers to the right place without the effort of old fashioned IVRs and the frustration of long hold times. Designing, implementing, managing, and continuously optimizing the most caller-friendly experience is our primary focus. It’s all we do, and no one does it better.

Why Parlance

Parlance delivers HIPAA-compliant AI voice assistants that transform healthcare switchboard and call center operations by automating workflows at the digital front door. Leading health systems, enterprises, and higher education institutions rely on Parlance as a trusted provider of speech-driven IVR and IVA solutions.

 

The Challenge Healthcare Organizations Face

Healthcare switchboards and call centers process tens of millions of calls annually. When highly skilled agents dedicate time to navigating calls, answering repetitive questions about parking and clinic hours, and manually scheduling routine appointments, operations cannot function efficiently. The voice channel remains the dominant method of healthcare communication, with the overwhelming majority of consumers calling on the phone.

 
Parlance unmatched healthcare expertise

 

Unmatched Healthcare Experience

Parlance HIPAA-compliant AI voice assistants for healthcare are deployed and maintained by customer solutions experts averaging 10+ years tenure. Our team is unmatched in experience. We have completed thousands of implementations for health systems across the country, with revenues ranging from over $750 billion to under $1 billion.

 

Many vendors offer an AI solution to optimize switchboard call routing and call center operations. Many of those solutions have great capabilities. But you must have accurate data to enable AI to function efficiently. Without clean data there is no connection to trusted intelligence, and the solution will never work as it should. Partnering with a team who has the know-how to guide you through each step of the process, from preparation to deployment, ensures that you will reap the benefits of voice AI, streamline your workforce, generate ROI, and keep the patient’s needs at the heart of every interaction. AI technology should be implemented thoughtfully to support and improve care delivery, considering patient satisfaction and outcomes, without creating new barriers to care. A partnership with the Parlance team is the answer. 

Parlance organizational stability and legacy

 

Organizational Stability and a Legacy of Innovation

For 30+ years, organizations nationwide have depended on Parlance to modernize the caller’s journey. As a wholly owned subsidiary of Constellation Software, a $60 billion organization, we offer long-term partnership stability. Parlance is trusted by HCA Healthcare, Providence Health, UC San Diego Health, Keck Medicine of USC, Mercy Health, Arkansas Children’s, NYU Langone Health, Banner Health, Baptist Health, Hendrick Health, Virtua Health, Tufts Medical Center, and thousands of other health systems, hospitals, and clinics. 

Parlance has a prestigious history of solving real world problems through the science of sound and the power of voice. Parlance speech recognition solutions evolved from BBN Technologies, now Raytheon BBN Technologies, and provided expert acoustical analysis to the U.S. government during the JFK assassination investigation. When the United Nations headquarters needed a design to ensure optimal acoustics, so that every word in every meeting could not only be heard, but be flawlessly recorded, we were there, too. Parlance has a legacy of innovation and accomplishment that has driven us forward for decades.

Today, our commercial applications have one clear objective: Help people simplify their lives through speech automation. It’s a goal that has continuously guided our pioneering work to modernize caller experiences.

With Parlance relieving the burden of routine transfers and poor self-service, business operations are optimized – live agent effort is saved for more complex calls, massive hold queues are eliminated, there are fewer interactions from frustrated callers waiting on hold, staff morale improves, and revenue leakage due to call abandonment is significantly reduced.

Some of the Parlance Team

Don’t ignore the phone in healthcare — because your patients, from the youngest to oldest generations, certainly haven’t. They’re using it, they need it, and they’re judging your entire organization by how well you answer it.

Patients experiencing frictionless customer service in retail and hospitality won’t accept outdated phone systems from healthcare providers. Consumer-focused companies like Amazon, CVS, and Chick-fil-A drive sky-high service expectations. Parlance delivers better self-service rates by enabling callers to speak naturally to get what they need, rather than navigate IVRs by pressing numbers or shouting, “OPERATOR!” Parlance uses NLP and NLU processing, along with a set of other proprietary tools and technologies to better understand caller requests and manage calls appropriately. If a request is not understood quickly or is too complicated to be completed with automation, Parlance delivers the call to a human agent. Parlance delivers measurable impact and near-immediate ROI.
