eHealth portal: Agile response to the pandemic with chat(bot)

1th of April 2022

Sundhed.dk implements SupWiz’ Chatbot and live chat (SupChat) as a response to the corona pandemic.

Agility during a critical time

The Danish eHealth portal sundhed.dk experienced massive increase in queries due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. Hence, sundhed.dk chose to act with agility during the corona-chaos and implemented SupWiz’ live chat (SupChat) and Chatbot. The aim was to increase the citizen-support by providing faster replies and simultaneously supporting the agents by taking off the load of the many standard/frequently asked questions – a win-win value scenario.

Fast launch with adaptability & communication

Given the unique situation this collaboration came to be in, good communications have been essential between sundhed.dk and SupWiz.

SupWiz has always been ready with reflections and new ideas. Every time we at sundhed.dk has asked for advice of what to do next, SupWiz has quickly understood the essential part of our request and guided us toward a good solution.

Successful chat(bot) support
Sundhed.dk received thousands of chats after introducing chat support. Today the Chatbot at sundhed.dk handles almost all incoming chats - not only Corona-related queries, but also many other general health-related queries providing the citizens with availability and faster replies.

The pandemic has made the Danish population aware of the support sundhed.dk can provide them. Therefore, they have begun to rely on the help of sundhed.dk also with other health related inquiries.

New regulations, new questions: A Dynamic Approach 

Sundhed.dk’s situation required special attention to the maintenance of the Chatbot-answers.  

When the government implements new Corona-regulations, right away the citizens will have questions related to these. Here SupWiz’ dynamic approach has been imminent in accommodating this, as SupWiz has contributed with fast identification of new queries, which have then been turned into new Chatbot-answers.” says Brit Laugesen Kristensen from sundhed.dk

Also, these insights have been utilized by sundhed.dk to optimize their support setup. For example, the increase of queries outside opening hours has initiated activities related to sundhed.dk’s availability to the citizens.

SupWiz CEO, Stephen Alstrup is also very pleased with the outcome of this project:

 
Thanks to the professional team at sundhed.dk, we managed to find a way to launch the Chatbot with unheard speed together, to accommodate a critical time with high peaks in queries. The efficient collaboration allowed time to both handle the high load of queries, while simultaneously further improving the chat-support.
