AI Receptionists vs My Business Care Team FAQ
Isn't AI the future? Why use humans at all?
AI is powerful for routine tasks - and we use it. But healthcare involves nuance, emotion, and complexity. Patients calling about a worrying symptom or confused about their insurance don't want a chatbot. Our hybrid model uses AI where it excels and humans where they matter.
Can't AI handle most calls without human help?
AI handles simple, predictable calls well. But studies show 30-40% of healthcare calls involve complexity AI struggles with. Those are often your highest-value calls - new patients, complex scheduling, concerned patients. You don't want AI fumbling those.
Is AI cheaper than My Business Care Team?
Per-interaction, yes. But consider: What's the cost of a frustrated patient who couldn't get help from your AI? What's a lost new patient worth? Our outcome-based model means we're incentivized to convert, not just answer.
Does My Business Care Team use AI at all?
Absolutely. We use AI for after-hours handling, overflow during peak times, and routine information requests. The difference is we have humans ready to step in when AI isn't enough - and patients can always request a human.
