FALLS CHURCH, VA, September 17, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Inova today announced that Hyro, a leading AI-powered communications platform for healthcare; and NICE, the industry's leading AI-powered customer experience provider, were selected to improve patient and staff satisfaction with AI innovation. This collaboration will allow Inova to harness the power of cutting-edge digital technologies to improve the patient and team member experience, streamline operations, and enhance the delivery of care.

Inova is the leading health system in the Washington, DC metropolitan region and is at the forefront of digital innovation in healthcare.

This innovative approach seeks to boost operational efficiency by streamlining patient communications, reducing misrouted calls, deflecting and resolving repetitive inquiries. Patients and staff will also have 24/7 access to information and self-services like appointment management, prescription refills, and clinic details.
