Knowlagent ? Not Just for Training Anymore
Alpharetta, GA — November 16, 2010
Knowlagent, a leading agent productivity solution for the world?s 10 million call center agents, today announced the release of Knowlagent 8.5, a software upgrade designed to further reduce shrinkage in the call center by dramatically expanding the types of off-phone activities delivered to agents during call volume downtime.
Shrinkage ? the part of an agent?s time consumed by activities other than customer interactions ? can take up a considerable amount of an agent?s work day. According to a recent survey conducted by Knowlagent of more than 100 call center executives, as much as 30 percent of an agent?s time can be spent on off-phone activities.
While some of these shrinkage activities ? such as absenteeism and lunch ? are largely outside of the center?s control, many can be completed while agents sit idle, waiting for the next call. With its new release, Knowlagent can deliver these controllable activities ? which equate to about 12 percent of an agent?s day.
Knowlagent?s patented RightTime? technology identifies pockets of downtime in call volume and directs agents to the corresponding system to complete the assigned task. These tasks might include projects, paperwork, call research, emails, and knowledge base reviews, in addition to training and coaching.
?Knowlagent users have minimized idle time for years by delivering Knowlagent?s training and coaching applications during downtime,? said Matt McConnell, Knowlagent CEO. ?Now, with Knowlagent 8.5, they can deliver just about any activity or application to make wait time even more productive, even an existing Learning Management System.?
Knowlagent customers such as Convergys Corporation (NYSE: CVG) were instrumental in developing the new solution. Convergys will use the new capabilities to better serve their clients by ensuring that each agent gets more personalized training, coaching, and communications without affecting service levels.
?There is an increasing number of activities a call center agent must complete each day and with the onset of e-mail, text messaging, chat and social media customer service channels, the agent?s role is expanding,? said Michael Bathon, Convergys VP of Information Technology. ?We anticipate the design of Knowlagent 8.5 will help increase agent productivity and performance, improving our ability to serve the end customer.?
About Knowlagent
Knowlagent provides the only call center software that increases agent utilization by delivering shrinkage activities during idle time. Knowlagent creates active wait time through dynamically delivered sessions for common shrinkage activities between customer interactions. Knowlagent?s solutions are on-demand, easy to use and require no capital expenditures. Over 200,000 agents and managers around the world use Knowlagent?s solutions every day.

Your Doctor Program, L.P., Selects VRI to Provide Telecare Management for Medical Home Physicians
Houston, TX — November 08, 2011
National telemonitoring services will provide actionable pre-screened vital signs alerts to physician practices that use YDP?s Medical Home infrastructure in patient management and practice Quality Improvement.
“This technology support for chronic disease management by even small physician practices in rural areas is one way YDP brings Quality Improvement resources into daily practice to help physicians keep their chronically ill patients stable at home and out of the hospital.”
YDP CONTACT: Priscilla Goode, President, 713-981-6125, pgoode(at)yourdoctorprogram(dot)com
VRI CONTACT: Andy Schoonover, CEO, 800-860-4230, Andy(at)MonitoringCare(dot)com
Your Doctor Program, LLC, (YDP), a physician-developed practice support company that facilitates Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) physician practice transformations, announces a new partnership with Valued Relationships, Inc. (VRI), a national provider of remote patient monitoring services. VRI?s services will now be an integral part of YDP?s programs to support practices in meeting NCQA Level 1 PCMH standards and establishing accountable communications across their local medical networks.
Using proprietary Quality Management software integrated with a practice?s practice management system, YDP provides expertise and support required to transform even small, isolated rural practices into more clinically effective and cost-efficient PCMH provider organizations qualified to participate in PCMH and other Accountable Care Organization partnerships with third party health benefit payers. YDP provides its services to physician practices and also to payers desiring to rapidly and inexpensively build quality improvement and PCMH partnerships with Participating Physicians in their provider networks.
?We are very excited to partner with YDP and provide physicians with immediately addressable vital signs monitoring alerts that will enable them to identify patients who need their immediate proactive intervention,? said Andy Schoonover, CEO of VRI. ?Our goal is to connect doctors with their patients who may be experiencing health problems, and to do this early enough for them to help keep their patients out of the ER or hospital. ?We are pleased that VRI will take care of all aspects of monitoring and notification for chronic disease management as well as for hospital readmission prevention,? said Kim Dunn, MD, founder and CEO of YDP. ?Their only deliverable will be a real-time actionable alert in the hands of a physician, which is incredibly important information that an outcomes-focused practice using YDP?s services can use to provide superior care and obtain performance-based reimbursement enhancements.?
Vital signs data are already being obtained daily by VRI for patients of two YDP-supported practices in Houston and Dallas using wireless peripheral monitoring devices including glucometers, weight scales, pulse oximeters, and blood pressure cuffs. VRI provides on-site (in the patient?s home) installation and patient training to maximize patient/caregiver engagement and promote a positive long term patient experience. VRI makes outbound calls to patients to validate alerts as real and actionable in order to prevent any false alerts from bothering a physician?s practice. Answers to questions asked patients by VRI Care Center staff are documented and run through VRI?s algorithms to stratify alerts. Alerts that merit clinical intervention are immediately e-mailed or faxed to physicians as well as uploaded to a secure web based platform that VRI provides to communicate telemonitoring data and trends to authorized users. YDP uses the portal to conduct ongoing program oversight and analysis.
About YDP: The Your Doctor Program? was co-founded by Dr. Kim Dunn and Kevin Dunn in 2001. Its prototype was Dr. Dunn?s transformation of Internal Medicine Services in the Texas Prison System in the 1990s, and The Your Doctor Program? was piloted with patients starting in 2003. In 2005, a Research and Development Agreement was established with UT Health?s School of Biomedical Sciences and in 2009, the Program was awarded a National Institute of Health Challenge Grant to test the model. In 2010, pilots supported by Texas Managed Care payers were established and pay YDP for Medical Home management, Quality Management, and telemedicine. In 2010, the YDP Certification Process and Practice Based CME program were developed to support YDP?s vision to promulgate its Physician Quality Standard? infrastructure and Quality Improvement programs.

No commentsCertified Payment Processing Unveils Website for ?ISIS Direct,? Newest Sales Division
Dallas, Texas (Vocus/PRWEB) November 16, 2010
In October, Certified Payment Processing (CPP) rolled out its new sales division, ISIS Direct (Isis). As part of the roll out, a new website has been created and launched: http://www.Isis-360.com.
Isis is a full-service provider of specialized merchant services and also leases point-of-sale terminals that quickly process all forms of payments: debit and credit card transactions, gift cards, checks and contactless cards. Isis products and services are designed to help businesses increase revenue, control costs, improve efficiency, enhance payment processing security and provide their customers with the most popular payment methods.
Isis will use CPP?s operational infrastructure, including the predictive dialer/call center, payroll, training, marketing/communications, website design/development, application processing and human resources. And while Isis will focus almost exclusively on ?self-generated? sales calls, consultants will also be given pre-set sales appointments from the CPP call center.
In addition to highlighting the many products and services offered by Isis, the new website will focus on recruiting Account Consultants throughout the country, as well as training and development for the sales teams. In the future, an extensive recruiting portal will be added to the site, showing the many reasons that working for Isis is different than other industry sales positions. Isis is looking to hire an additional 350 account consultants and 50 field managers in the next year. Isis account consultants are offered uncapped compensation potential, flexible hours, a generous bonus package and comprehensive benefits.
Account consultants will have the ability to recruit their own field sales team members to work directly with them to acquire new merchant accounts. When one of these account consultants is ready, they can also begin to recruit and train their own sales people. As Isis account consultants build their teams, the potential for income increases.
?This sales model is unique in our industry,? says Tony Norrie, General Manager for Certified Payment Processing. ?Isis is not the traditional ISO/agent model which is so familiar to most in our industry. With the ability to personally recruit and build a team, the Isis sales channel incorporates a hierarchical, down-line structure. We believe this personalized approach will build a strong relationship bond and greatly impact retention of team members.?

No commentse-Glue Software Technologies Hosts Series of Webinars for Insurance & Financial Call Centers
Hoboken, NJ — November 15, 2004 – e-
Glue Software Technologies, a leading provider of call center productivity solutions, today announced that the company will host a series of Web seminars for the insurance and financial call center industries on November 17th and 18th, 2004. Hosted by Shay Grinfeld, CEO of e-Glue Software Technologies, these informative, complimentary sessions explore a variety of issues, strategies and techniques for increasing efficiency, profits and value in the call center.
On Wednesday, November 17, 2004, e-Glue will present ?Insurance Call Centers ? High Touch Service and a Transition to Value,? which examines the challenges that insurance call centers are confronted with on a daily basis. As more and more potential customers and policyholders turn to their phones for transactions and information, insurance companies must provide a high-touch experience for the caller that is equal to or exceeding a face-to-face experience. Yet the vast knowledge base of information that varies from state to state, by customer and product, creates an extremely challenging environment even for the most experienced agent. e-Glue?s webinar will address how insurance companies can provide the tools and knowledge for call center agents to more easily access correct information and focus more of their time identifying quality sales prospects and reducing overall risk.
The following day, e-Glue will host ?Financial Call Centers ? Transition to Profit Center,? which looks at the mounting pressure within financial service-based call centers to slash costs, yet provide strategic value to the organization. The conversion of a traditional service center into a profit-making entity requires a great deal of sales training and re-training, which often sends operating costs rocketing. e-Glue?s webinar discusses how financial organizations can leverage their call base to convert service calls into sales opportunities by equipping their agents with targeted, just-in-time sales assistance, while deploying strategies to maximize the efficiency of the call center through reduced handling times.

Sheikh Ahmed Deedat: In 1986, the King Faisal Foundation awarded the King Faisal International Prize for SERVICE TO ISLAM, to a South African who is more or better known than many dignitaries in their own countries. This was the first time that this prestigious award has been awarded to a South African. The recipient of this award was a man totally dedicated to his faith and its propagation and who was not afraid to challenge any one to a debate to settle once and for all the matter, who has the good news right? He was none other than Sheikh Ahmed Deedat, reverently known and called UNCLE by those who hold him in high esteem and admiration. The award came after a lifetime of struggle to propagate Islam and to defend Islam against the onslaught of the missionaries. Finally, he was given recognition by the international Muslim community that he deserved and focused more sharply the attention of the Muslim world on the most important aspect of his work, the challenge to propagate Islam. This was his life long ambition to focus the Muslim world’s attention and resources on the propagation of Islam, and at last he succeeded. What a moment of jubilation, achievement and personal gratification for Sheikh Deedat the award was, a turning point in his life.
