Admissions Call Center Training

PROFESSIONAL ADMISSIONS CALL CENTER TRAINING PROGRAM

The Admissions Team at a Treatment Center is the first person your clients will interact with on the phone and the Admissions Team is responsible for getting the client to come in through the door for assessment and pre-certification of insurance. In our Admissions Call Center Training, we will polish your call center staff and teach them how to convert your calls to clients.  We have developed a training program that crosses clinical verbiage and sales techniques to improve the closing ratio of your Admissions Call Center Team. We will analyze the systems you have in place, meet your staff, and train them on both clinical terminology and sales closing tactics that meet the ethical, legal, and business requirements and goals of your individual treatment center. 

The client’s first contact with your treatment center is your Admissions Call Center Team and if the process goes smoothly the client will arrive at your center and stay for the length of treatment. The relationship that is built with the client prior to treatment, during admission, and post-admission is crucial to the success of that client and your center.

If your treatment center is struggling to get people in the door and make them clients yet you spend a lot of money on advertising, marketing, and branding your treatment center you need this class. Most treatment centers do not put any money into their admissions call center staff, and they assume that the staff just knows how to sell treatment.  They don’t. Treatment centers fail here because they either hire someone that just went through the program to sell the program or they hire some big expensive sales guy that used to sell a completely unrelated product like cars or widgets and both fail. Train your staff in legal and ethical techniques to close those calls.

The number one goal of detox, residential treatment center, PHP, or IOP  is to fill the beds with quality candidates that need your services. This is where most places struggle to maintain a census of appropriate candidates.  You hire marketers, developers, lead generation services, dabble in the Google AdWords game (after purchasing a LegitScript certification), and you spend thousands of dollars to get the phone to ring. After all that money and hard work, a lot of clients are lost in the Admissions Call Center. Untrained staff, missed calls, admission of inappropriate candidates for your specific services, promises to clients that are unrealistic (resulting in them leaving upon arrival), clients not assessed for the proper level of care and even staff not understanding and assessing proper insurance coverage all translates in wasted money and time.

Our training program is like nothing on the market for addiction treatment centers. We utilize Motivational Interviewing, Coaching Techniques, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Neuro-linguistic Programming techniques in our Admissions Call Center Training coupled with sales training and empathetic ear listening skills. We have trained countless treatment centers in the past 6 years and have assisted them in turning referrals and leads into clients. See whom we have trained HERE
