Sun River Health, a leading New York-based healthcare organization, is committed to delivering comprehensive and most importantly accessible healthcare services, has embraced RingCentral’s innovative communication solutions to enhance its internal and external communication processes.
Sun River Health’s decision to incorporate RingCentral products into its operations has proven to be a strategic move toward streamlining communication and patient care. Eliminating common issues with previous providers and legacy phone systems.
Eric Brosius, Sun River Health’s VP of Technology Services states, “Our call drops have gone to virtually zero. That was a pain point for us. Historically, our call answer rate is up 20 percent from 79% to 97%. We couldn’t speak more highly of RingCentral and the value that they brought to our business and the level of availability for the platform, the stability, and the metrics that we see are night and day compared to where we were on any other system prior.”
