FAQs – Everything You Need to Know

How does your Call Answering Service work?

How do I get started with The VA Team?  

Getting started is easy! Simply contact us, and we'll walk you through our onboarding process to understand your needs and set up your virtual receptionist service quickly. 

What is the process for the call answering service?  

Number Diverting: The client company diverts their business phone number to the phone number of the call answering service. This is usually done through their telephone service provider or through VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) system settings. 
Call Reception: When a call comes in on the diverted number, it is received by the answering service rather than the client's office. The service’s receptionists answer using the client company's name, acting as if they are part of the company. 
Interaction Handling: The operators at the answering service are trained to handle different types of interactions based on the guidelines provided by the client. 
Message Relay: If a message is taken, the call answering service ensures that it is forwarded promptly to the right person or department within the client's company. 

What happens after Hours?  

The call will be received in a professional voicemail, and one of the call answering service receptionists will return it the next working day. 

Will you answer calls in our clinic's name?  

Yes. We answer calls as part of your team, using your preferred greeting and call-handling script. 

Can you handle overflow calls or cover while my in-house Receptionist is on Holiday ?  

es. Many clinics use us when their in-house receptionist is unavailable or when call volumes increase. 
 

Will my customers know they are speaking to a Virtual Receptionist?  

No, our team is trained to integrate with your business seamlessly. We answer calls professionally using your business name and follow your specific guidelines, ensuring a consistent and professional experience for your customers. 

Do you help with billing?
