Our New Name!

Introducing Healthcare Call Center Times

Physician Referral & Telephone Triage Times is changing its name to Healthcare Call Center Times. We are doing this as the new name better describes the scope of our editorial coverage. In addition to articles on physician referral and telephone nurse advice and triage, we now regularly carry stories about the many other activities that healthcare call centers are doing today: Scheduling, post discharge calls, switchboard, patient transfers, disease management, physician and clinic appointments, health coaching, appointment reminder calls, handling web interactions, and more. We’re just keeping up with the times.
