We had a chat with Albert Winter, CEO of Alfa Group.
Albert, what do you use Generic's services for?
- We use Generics' SMS services for our customers for things like appointment confirmations and appointment reminders, as well as two-factor authentication for logging in. Some also use the service to quickly book another patient in case of a cancellation.
- It is a well-known fact that late cancellations and no-shows cost the healthcare system huge amounts of money, so there is great value in sending reminders of booked appointments and filling canceled appointments quickly. It saves time and money and helps cut waiting lists.
Have we solved any other problems for you?
- We have improved communication between our customers and their customers in a secure and seamless way. In some cases, we have increased security, for example through two-factor authentication for logins.
Why did you choose Generic as your supplier?
- For our customer base, security, availability and control of how and where data flows is very important. Data management is strictly regulated by several laws so the choice fell on Generic for several reasons. One of the most obvious is an infrastructure where all data is handled in Sweden, which provides great added value in security and legal issues. In addition, we get an impressively fast and efficient service from Generic, which always makes sure to have the right resources in the right place, for example during various implementations.
Finally, Albert, what is the best thing about Generic?
- Stable services and a great service. What more could you ask for?
