Handling Reschedules & Cancellations in a Healthcare Voice Agent
Hello everyone, I’m building an appointment-booking voice agent for the healthcare industry using the n8n template brendon provided in his video and have run into a challenge around rescheduling and cancellations. Here’s what’s happening: - Current lookup method: Using patients’ email addresses to retrieve their booking. - Problem: The Retell agent frequently mis-transcribes email addresses, making it unreliable. What I’m considering: - Assigning each booking a unique reference number that patients can quote when they want to reschedule or cancel. My questions to the community: - Has anyone faced a similar transcription issue with email lookups in a voice agent? - If so, how did you solve it? - Does using a unique booking reference number work in practice, or is there a more robust approach you’d recommend? I’d love to hear about your experiences, insights, or alternative solutions. Thanks in advance!
