Avaya Supports Healthcare Providers with Free Collaboration and Contact Center Apps to Help Bolster Their Ability to Respond During COVID-19 CrisisAs healthcare workers around the world face the daily challenges of responding to COVID-19, Avaya (News - Alert) Holdings Corp. (NYSE:AVYA) continues to enhance their ability to deliver critically needed support and care. The company today announced it is providing communications and collaboration solutions for free to healthcare organizations in order to help them stay connected, productive and safe. Avaya solutions are helping providers address the unprecedented demands on them, such as an increase in patient care and inquiries, the pressing need to proactively outreach to their communities, and an ability to virtually connect patients, family members and care teams, especially with staff working from home or in temporary locations. Healthcare is a priority for Avaya, and the company works with 80% of the Health and Life Sciences Fortune 500 Companies, and 12 of the top 20 U.S. hospitals rely on Avaya communications solutions. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the company has been supporting healthcare organizations worldwide in a number of ways:
WellMedic Health Centers, one of the most innovative health and wellness centers in Latin America, implemented Avaya communication and contact centers solutions for remote agents to address their current challenges. "In a moment like this with whole world impacted by COVID-19, we have to act immediately, and with Avaya's support, in just over a weekend we were able to move our traditional call center to a remote deployment without interrupting service to doctors, their patients or our team," said Carlos Araiza, IT Leader at WellMedic. "They quickly helped us develop our contingency strategy and implement the appropriate solution." "Our deepest gratitude goes out to the healthcare workers and organizations on the front lines battling COVID-19. Many of the providers who work with Avaya have told us how critical it is to stay connected and engaged with colleagues, patients and communities," said Jim Chirico, Avaya President and CEO. "In the early days of the pandemic, we worked with hospitals to quickly donate and deploy collaboration apps and technology to support their efforts. Now we know it's critical to support them with new capabilities that can help during this unprecedented global heath challenge."
