Extra front-desk staffing is the classic answer to phone pressure. Sometimes it is the right one. But often you pay a full salary for work that is mostly answering, scheduling and calling back.
What a receptionist really costs. The salary is only the start of the calculation.
Sickness and holidays
When someone is out, availability falls straight back on the assistants. Exactly the problem you were trying to solve.
The phone still wins
Even with extra staffing, the phone keeps setting the agenda: it rings when it wants to, not when it is quiet.
Eva next to your team, not instead of it.
Eva does not replace your front desk. She absorbs the phone work that keeps interrupting your team, so the people at the desk do what they are there for: patients in the practice.
Eva answers instantly, through the rush, the lunch break and after closing time.
Appointments and rescheduling follow your agenda rules.
The desk keeps the lead: everything that needs human attention lands there.
No sickness, no holidays, no onboarding time.
