Hospitals Want to Compete With HCA Hospitals’ ER Texting…But How?

For many hospitals these days, it’s all too familiar scenario, you have an HCA
or several HCA hospitals in your marketplace and they have their “23000”
ER wait times patient text system in place. And it works great for their ER,
generating tons of ER traffic. How does your ER compete with that?

Well, now it’s easy. Enter “4ER411”, the latest in texting platforms,
brought to you by ERTexting Inc., the same Miami company whose
executives developed the “23000” system for HCA. Except this is
the better mousetrap. While the “23000” system works fine, it is a
shared text code, so it requires the extra step of sending “ER” to the
number first, waiting for a prompt and then entering the patient’s
zip code. “4ER411” works on a simplified platform, where the patient
simply texts their zip code to “4ER411” and they receive the live wait
times for participating hospitals in that zip code. No extra steps during
an actual emergency, so the positive patient experience begins even before
they get to your door.

So yes, now you can not only compete with the HCA hospitals in your area,
but beat them at their own ER text game, with ERTexting.

Just go to their site and find out all about it.
