CSOFT Health Sciences specializes in over-the-phone interpretation (OPI) for patient recruitment in clinical trials, which involves highly specific and sensitive patient-centric communications. Our OPI specialists can help you navigate cross-cultural and multilingual patient recruitment scenarios so that these experiences are simple and efficient.
Why Use Over-the-Phone Interpretation?
Medical interpretation is necessary for healthcare professionals and research organizations when communicating with limited English proficiency (LEP) patients and patients around the globe. Medical interpreters have in-depth experience in the industry, as well as an understanding of the patient’s cultural nuances and language, thereby enabling patients to make informed decisions regarding their health and safety. Remote interpretation solutions like OPI give medical professionals options for a wide variety of professional linguists from all over the world, guaranteeing their expertise not only of medical subject matter but also for in-depth and real understanding of the target language and culture of the patient. Moreover, OPI services are more cost effective than traditional in-person interpretation services, have more flexibility in scheduling, and allow a faster turnaround time.
Video Remote Interpretation
With a rise in telehealth and remote medical communication solutions, healthcare workers are increasingly turning to solutions like video remote interpretation to connect with their multilingual patients from anywhere in the world. Like OPI, the process of video remote interpretation leverages virtual medical communications while also introducing the added benefit of being able to pick up on body language and facial expressions using videoconferencing technology. In the medical field, video remote interpretation is essential for connecting doctors and other clinicians with limited English proficiency (LEP) patients, or to reach patients participating in global sites for clinical trials. To help facilitate patient-centric medical communications, CSOFT Health Sciences’ professional interpreters offer high quality and timely video remote interpretation solutions across 250+ languages.
