Why Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)s Choose Recruitment & Screening Calls

{"faqs":[{"answer":"The AI handles recruitment and initial screening against criteria you define — confirming interest, asking your approved screening questions, and routing hot leads to your clinical team live or into your CRM. Clinical assessment always stays with your licensed staff; the campaign just makes sure no inquiry goes uncalled. You approve the script, disclosure, and escalation path before anything launches.","question":"Can AI calls handle screening for a dual diagnosis intensive outpatient program without a clinician?"},{"answer":"We only run campaigns against approved, permissioned, or reviewed contact lists, and we check list source and consent records before any campaign launches — bought lists without clear permission records are flagged and in most cases declined. AI-generated voices are treated as artificial voices under the TCPA with prior express consent required, data is never shared or sold, and clinic campaigns run under HIPAA-compliant communication standards. Clients are responsible for obtaining appropriate legal guidance before launch.","question":"How do you handle consent and privacy for people struggling with substance abuse?"},{"answer":"Every call includes AI disclosure — recipients can ask if the call is AI-assisted, request a human, or opt out entirely. Keyword opt-outs like STOP and REVOKE are honored immediately, and the escalation path you approve determines when a call transfers to your intake team live.","question":"What happens if a prospective client asks whether it's a real person or wants to talk to a human?"},{"answer":"The first campaign review is free and starts with your goal. From there we review your list and consent records, connect outcomes to your existing CRM and scheduling tools, and get your script and escalation approval. Because nothing launches until you approve, timelines depend on how quickly your list and script review is completed — but there is no software implementation or platform build on your side.","question":"How fast can we launch a recruitment campaign for our IOP?"},{"answer":"Hiring means competing in a behavioral health workforce with chronic turnover and attrition, plus per-seat costs that scale with headcount. Auto-dialers blast indiscriminately — we run structured campaigns against approved, permissioned lists only, with one clear goal per campaign, a locked rate from 9¢ per connected minute, no per-seat charges, and a named outcome report showing exactly what happened. It's a managed service: you buy campaigns that we run for you.","question":"Why not just hire more intake staff or use an auto-dialer instead?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Define the goal and review your list","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Start with 'What do you need the call to accomplish?'
