Avaya and SDC Solutions
Enterprise Directory Access for Healthcare Organizations
How can hospitals and other healthcare organizations best
handle their large volume of daily calls?
A Platinum-level member in the Avaya DeveloperConnection
program, SDC Solutions, Inc. helps healthcare organizations
streamline their communications by creating a central
directory that is easily accessed and updated. SDC’s
Total Call Handling Solution includes four powerful
applications that access the SDC Comprehensive Database:
IntelliSPEECH Intelligent Virtual Agent, IntelliDESK
PC‑based Console, WebSERVICES Web-based Directory and
IPSERVICES IP-based Directory.
By providing multiple access methods to an enterprise
directory as well as critical information about a business
community, the Total Call Handling Solution helps
organizations boost productivity, decrease abandoned
calls, increase customer service and satisfaction, and
reduce costs. The solution allows operators, staff and
physicians to communicate quickly and efficiently by
providing tools that automatically update patient directory
information (via HL7 standard protocol), define and launch
emergency procedures, and schedule and contact staff on
call. Additional features include paging and customized
physician messaging templates.
The solution works with Avaya Communication Manager. The next
generation of Avaya call processing software, Communication
Manager is an open, scalable, and highly reliable telephony
solution. The software provides centralized call control for a
resilient, distributed network of media gateways and a wide range
of analog, digital and IP‑based communication devices.
