Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to share medical info with human VAs?
This is a personal privacy decision. Human VAs are strangers who would learn about your health needs. KallyAI processes information without human review, offering better privacy for sensitive healthcare calls.
Can human VAs handle insurance verification?
Yes, human VAs can verify insurance. However, they would need your insurance details, adding a privacy consideration. KallyAI handles insurance verification without human exposure to your information.
When is a human VA better for healthcare calls?
Human VAs are better for complex scenarios like coordinating care across multiple providers, handling insurance disputes requiring negotiation, or managing ongoing healthcare needs over time.
How does cost compare for medical appointment calls?
Medical calls often involve long hold times. Human VAs charge by the hour, so a 30-minute hold plus conversation could cost $30-50+. KallyAI has flat pricing regardless of hold time.
