All new and rebuilt from the ground up: call patients directly in-app, a dramatically faster and lighter app, a better Secure Chat, and an Apple Watch companion.
On Call Central puts your medical answering service in your pocket. Take call, return patient calls, and manage your practice's after-hours communication from a fast, secure app.
Completely rebuilt from the ground up for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, the new On Call Central opens faster, feels instantly responsive, and uses up to 77% less memory than the previous version, so it stays quick even on older devices.
CALL PATIENTS DIRECTLY, IN THE APP
• Tap to call patients back right from a message, using your practice's caller ID instead of your personal number
• Receive incoming calls in the app like a normal phone call
• Automatic fallback to callback dialing when your network is weak, so calls always connect

I’ve been using this app for a couple months now and it was working fine. But recently, there was an update to this app which is making it very challenging to even listen to my messages in a timely manner. I had to restart my phone twice and open and close the app several times before I was even able to listen to one message. I wish there was a way I could go back to the last version so it wasn’t quite an issue anymore. I hope this glitch is taken care of soon!
