Support after go-live: the named contact, the escalation path, and the review cadence between incidents

Implementation ends, support does not. Who picks up when a sync fails mid-clinic, how urgent issues escalate outside business hours, and what a regional account manager does in the weeks when nothing is on fire.

How it pays back

One person who already knows your setup

A dedicated regional account manager knows your practice, your staff and your workflows, so an incident call starts from context instead of from a fresh description of your configuration.

A sync failure is treated by impact, not by ticket age

Critical issues like EHR sync failures have immediate priority whatever time they happen. A booking system that has stopped writing to the chart is an operational emergency, and the escalation path reflects that.

Your business hours are the support window

Local support in your time zone means problems get worked while your office is open. Waiting overnight for a vendor to wake up is how a one-hour issue becomes a one-day issue.

Reviews catch the drift between incidents

Call quality, booking accuracy and staff feedback are reviewed on a regular cadence. Most degradation is gradual, so it shows up in a review long before it shows up as an outage.

Frequently asked questions

Who do we call when something breaks in the middle of clinic?

Your regional account manager and the local support team, with direct escalation to technical support for urgent issues. There is no call-center triage layer between you and someone who can act.

What counts as urgent enough to escalate outside business hours?

Critical issues such as EHR sync failures have immediate priority regardless of time of day, and urgent escalation paths are available 24/7. Questions and optimisation requests are handled during your business hours.

Is our main point of contact a person or a queue?

A person. You are assigned a dedicated regional account manager who knows your practice, staff and workflows, and who is the primary contact for questions and optimisation.

How often do we hear from support when nothing is wrong?

Regular check-ins are standard, with quarterly business reviews on top of them. The cadence is designed so the relationship is not defined entirely by incidents.

What is covered in a quarterly review?

Call trends, booking accuracy, and recommended improvements, informed by call quality and staff feedback. It is where configuration changes are usually proposed rather than reacted to.

Can we compare notes with other practices using the same system?

Yes. Peer networks and user groups are facilitated by region, so you can learn from other practices' experience and share what has worked for yours.
