In healthcare, the person who answers the phone or the chat window is often a patient's first point of contact, and sometimes the one they remember most. A confusing billing message, an unanswered question about a prescription refill or a long hold before an appointment can shake a patient's confidence before they ever see a clinician.

Medical practices, telehealth platforms, pharmacies and digital health companies increasingly rely on dedicated support teams to handle that front line. Done well, patient support does far more than close tickets. It helps people stay engaged with their care.
