Gordian Selects CosmoCom for Health Care Contact Center.

Nurses and Health Coaches Reach Clients More Efficiently and at Less Cost

MELVILLE, N.Y. -- CosmoCom, the global leader in Call Center Consolidation 2.0, today announced that Gordian, an industry leader in health and productivity improvement, has adopted its state-of-the-art, IP-based contact center platform. Gordian plans to improve the efficiency of its health care coaches by providing new and better ways to reach client groups with timely advice on healthy lifestyles.

Gordian provides integrated health management services to employee groups and other plan members. Until now, the company used a traditional phone system to connect its nurses, dietitians, exercise physiologists, and other professionals with clients in need of healthy lifestyle coaching. The capabilities of CosmoCom's CosmoCall Universe (CCU) platform exceed those of traditional phone systems.

One reason the Nashville-based leader in health coaching chose CCU is that it integrates email and online chat into the traditional telephone call center. "The contact center is our lifeline to our clients," explained Tim Wade, Gordian's vice president of information technology.

"CosmoCom gives us a blended environment with phone, email, and online chat, helping us integrate our products and deliver them in multiple ways to help meet the various needs of our members."

CCU's efficiency in dialing outbound calls creates significant cost savings and also improves morale. Instead of listening to busy signals and leaving voice messages, health coaches can focus on giving the best possible health advice to clients.

CCU integrates seamlessly with Gordian's Microsoft .NET applications and SQL Server 2005 databases, which tracks each participant contact automatically, regardless of whether it takes place via online chat, email, or telephone. According to Wade, Gordian's software is written in .NET, so the CosmoCall Universe was easy to integrate.

"Gordian Health Solutions is in a perfect position to capitalize on Call Center Consolidation 2.0 as enabled by CosmoCall Universe," said Ari Sonesh, chairman and CEO of CosmoCom. "The communication intelligence built into our platform for both inbound and outbound calls enhances the productivity of professionals like Gordian's health teams. CosmoCom is pleased and proud to be helping Gordian achieve the important goal of affordable, cost effective health care."
