Metro Community Health Center
Cut the phone bill 75%, added mobile softphones for remote work, and gave staff call reporting they never had.
Your clinics can't run on a phone system that drops calls during patient care, or on a bill nobody can itemize. The VOIP Guru, powered by TVG Tech, compares 50+ vendors against what your health center actually needs — including the compliance requirements you have to satisfy.
Start with a free 5-day telecom + VoIP audit. The vendor pays us, not you.
Five business days. It costs you nothing, and it ends with a conversation — not a contract.
Ask most operations leaders at a community health center what their phone system costs, and the honest answer is a range. There's a bill for the main site. A different bill for the satellite clinic. A line item nobody can explain, on a contract that renewed itself. Open a sixth location and the whole conversation starts over from scratch.
Meanwhile the system itself is old. Calls drop mid-conversation — sometimes while a patient is on the line. Front-desk staff invent a workaround. The workaround quietly becomes the process. And because nothing is broken enough to escalate, nothing gets escalated.
Then there's the compliance layer sitting on top of all of it. Any vendor whose system touches patient information needs a signed Business Associate Agreement — that's table stakes, not a premium feature. But every vendor's website says "HIPAA-ready," and no sales rep is going to volunteer where their own answer gets thin.
When the phones don't work, the schedule doesn't work. A dropped call isn't an IT ticket — it's a patient who didn't get through.
We don't certify anyone's HIPAA compliance — not a vendor's, and not yours. No advisor can, and you should be skeptical of any who says otherwise. What we do is put the requirements you have to satisfy, a signed BAA among them, on the table next to the price. So you compare vendors on both at once, with your compliance officer in the room, instead of taking a rep's word for it.
When a clinic's phone goes down, patient care stops. These results show how one multi-site health center modernized its phone system, added AI patient support, and fixed mobile dead zones — while spending less every month.
That health center is a Federally Qualified Health Center running 110 users across 5 locations. Their old system was 15 years old and dropped calls during patient care. We didn't build them a new phone system — we compared the market for them, three times, and let the bills do the arguing. Here is each engagement, with the before-and-after attached.
Cut the phone bill 75%, added mobile softphones for remote work, and gave staff call reporting they never had.
Spent 35.4% less while adding automated prescription refills, appointment scheduling, and 24/7 after-hours patient support.
Cut mobile costs 20% and solved the headquarters dead zone that left executives with zero cell coverage.
We inventory your lines, seats, sites, and contracts — including the ones that renewed while nobody was looking. Most health centers have never seen all of it on a single page.
We total the real monthly spend across every bill and every location, and itemize it. Not an estimate — the number you can hand your CFO without a caveat.
We put your actual requirements against 50+ vendors and show you the market rate for them. If your current system is already priced right, we'll tell you that too.
That's the whole thing. Five business days, start to finish. We're not going to hand you a forty-page report you'll never read — we're going to hand you your own numbers, and the market's, side by side.
It costs you nothing. The vendor pays us, not you — which is exactly why we're able to tell you when your current system is the right one to keep.
Tell us who you are and how many sites you run. We'll come back with the short list of what we need to see — your recent bills and your locations — and the five business days start from there.
You're not signing anything, and you're not committing to switch. At the end you'll know what you have, what you pay, and what you should pay. What you do with that is your call.
The results above aren't a pitch deck. They're a named health center with the before-and-after bills attached, sitting on our case studies page next to 9 more. The only numbers missing are your health center's — because nobody has run them yet. That's what the five-day audit is for. No pitch. No cost. The vendor pays us, not you.
