Phone audio for medical clinics
A general practice answers the same questions all day — billing, scripts, results, hours. What a caller hears while they wait can answer most of them, and the first sentence can send a genuine emergency to the right place.
Why it matters here
The first sentence has a job to do
Some callers should not be on hold at all
A greeting that opens by directing a medical emergency to triple zero is the one piece of phone audio a practice cannot do without. It costs four seconds and it is the reason many clinics record a greeting in the first place.
Billing is the most asked question in the building
Whether you bulk bill, who you bulk bill, what a standard consultation costs privately and what the Medicare rebate leaves behind. Said once on hold, it stops being said forty times a day at the desk.
Demand arrives in waves
Flu vaccination season, a gastro run through the local schools, the morning after a public holiday. Hold times you never see in March turn up in May, on exactly the days reception has the least room to explain anything.
Scripts and results follow a process callers do not know
Repeat prescriptions need a doctor to review them and results are rarely given over the phone. A recording that says how your practice handles both sets the expectation before the caller reaches a person.
Welcome Greeting
An example script
The shape and the level of detail that tends to work for medical clinics. The business is invented and the words are only a starting point — yours are written in the studio.
You have reached Parkview Medical Centre. If this is a medical emergency, please hang up and dial triple zero. Our reception team will be with you shortly. For repeat prescriptions and test results, please allow one working day, as a doctor reviews every request before it is released.
What to mention in yours
- Whether the practice bulk bills, and who for — children, concession card holders, DVA.
- Opening hours, and the after-hours service that covers your patients once you close.
- How repeat prescriptions and results are handled, and how long each takes.
- Telehealth appointments, if you offer them, and how a patient books one.
You write the words, or edit what the assistant drafts, so what your callers hear is your decision rather than ours.
