This data point serves as a direct line of communication to a healthcare professional or organization within the Allcare network. It enables individuals to efficiently contact their designated healthcare resource for appointments, inquiries, or urgent medical assistance. For instance, if a patient needs to reschedule a physical therapy session or clarify medication dosage, this contact point facilitates that interaction.
Having immediate access to this information streamlines healthcare access and enhances patient care coordination. Historically, obtaining such contact details involved navigating complex directories or relying on intermediary staff. The ready availability of this specific data significantly reduces delays in communication, potentially leading to quicker diagnoses, more timely treatments, and ultimately, improved health outcomes. Furthermore, it empowers patients to actively manage their healthcare and fosters a stronger patient-provider relationship.
