Through the company’s focus on healthcare as a strategic industry, Talkdesk has worked with leading and innovative payers for years and understands their unique priorities, challenges, and needs. This newest purpose-built platform delivers unique value by helping healthcare insurance providers achieve:
- Increased member experience and loyalty. Payer contact center teams benefit from a single view of member interaction history, context, and configurable data such as claims and authorization history from claims platform integrations, facilitating more personalized and relevant conversations. Agents receive real-time guidance to discuss topics like benefits eligibility or recommendations for a nearby provider to deliver exceptional and efficient service in every conversation. Members get to choose their preferred communications channel and know they’ll receive a consistently seamless experience instead of fragmented interactions.
- Lower operational costs. Payers can more efficiently serve their customers through AI-powered self-service capabilities and pre-built workflows that automate routine transactional calls such as claim status checks. This reduces the volume of interactions that need to be handled by a human agent and allows contact center teams to handle queries with more complexity or requiring a greater level of empathy. Additionally, Talkdesk Automatic Summary leverages generative AI (GenAI) to streamline post-call administrative work by up to 66%.
- Greater likelihood of achieving high health outcomes and quality ratings. With an optimized ability to engage members in a tailored, consistent way, payers can improve member satisfaction and engagement around essential health areas such as preventive care to promote positive health outcomes for their population. Pre-built integration with digital triage and symptom-checking platforms helps connect members to the best level of care quickly and accurately. Enhanced customer service performance and activating healthy behaviors in members generate improved quality ratings for payers in the Medicare Advantage, Part D, and managed Medicaid markets.

With its ease of implementation, the platform can be deployed seamlessly and configured out of the box to support existing teams, processes, and systems to deliver business value rapidly. Additionally, peace of mind comes from security and privacy tools that enable compliance and member data protection, along with responsibly trained AI to ensure AI orchestrates better conversations without the risk of inaccuracies or biases.
