Healthcare IT Help Desk and Call Center for hospitals and clinics.
24 × 7 helpdesk and call center coverage built for hospitals, physician clinics, and veterinary practices. Our analysts staff Tier 1 through Tier 3, handling everything from password resets and printer issues to complex EMR and ERP troubleshooting across Epic, Cerner, ServiceNow, Salesforce, and dozens of clinical applications.
After-hours and weekend call center coverage keeps your night-shift nurses and weekend staff supported, without the cost of in-house overnight staffing. Go-live surges, holiday skeleton crews, or steady-state year-round, we design the model around your calendar.

Single-site and multi-specialty groups

Structured tiers, with zero dead ends.
Every issue is classified on first contact and routed to the right skill level. Warm handoffs at every tier boundary, not ticket dumps into an unmonitored queue.
Tier 1: First Contact
Password resets, account unlocks, login troubleshooting, printer and peripheral issues, basic connectivity triage, and guided self-service for repeat requests. Analysts follow runbooks so every resolution is consistent and fully logged on first contact.
Tier 2: Application and Desktop
Deep application troubleshooting for EMR, EHR, ERP, practice management, and clinical workflow tools. Workstation imaging, software configuration, VDI and remote desktop support, and coordinated escalation pathways to Tier 3 or vendor.
Tier 3: Systems and Escalation
Senior analyst involvement for complex multi-system issues, including server-side application errors, integration failures between EMR and ancillary systems, escalation to internal IT leads or third-party vendors, and root-cause documentation.
Applications we support.
If your staff use it, our analysts know it. From Epic Hyperspace to Cornerstone to Workday, we cover the full stack of clinical, operational, and productivity tools across the health IT ecosystem.

Coverage that fits your schedule, not ours.
Business hours, extended hours, after-hours, weekends, holidays, or always-on. Mix and match across departments or sites to match exactly how your organization operates.
Business Hours
Mon–Fri, 8 am – 6 pm local
Routine break-fix, ticket logging, and first-contact resolution during peak clinical hours.
Extended Hours
Mon–Fri, 7 am – 10 pm local
Early clinical starts, evening nursing shifts, and late EHR batch-processing windows covered.
After-Hours and Weekends
Nights, Weekends, Holidays
On-demand or scheduled coverage for after-hours operations and holiday skeleton crews.
24 × 7 × 365
Always-on
Round-the-clock coverage for trauma centers, multi-site systems, and zero-gap organizations.
More than a ticket queue. A clinical IT partner.
One Number for Everything
A single helpdesk contact via phone, chat, or email handles EMR outages, printer jams, VPN failures, and Salesforce login errors. Staff never need to know which queue to call.
Clinical Workflow Awareness
Our analysts understand shift handoffs, downtime procedures, and clinical urgency. A Hyperspace login issue at 5:58 a.m. before rounds is treated differently than a billing question at noon.
Structured Escalation
Nothing ages in a queue. T1 through T3 pathways are pre-mapped with warm handoffs. Your internal IT lead receives a brief, not a fresh problem to triage from scratch.
After-Hours Without Overhead
Staffing a night-shift helpdesk in-house costs multiples of outsourced coverage. We flex with your volume, scaling up for EMR go-live weeks and back on quiet summer Sundays.

Deep EMR expertise behind the helpdesk.
Our helpdesk analysts are backed by 180+ Epic-credentialed SMEs and broad EHR bench depth. Tier 2 and Tier 3 Epic, Cerner, or Allscripts issues get real expertise, not a vendor callback loop. Managed Services, Staff Augmentation, and the full Health IT portfolio sit on the same team.

Every helpdesk engagement runs under SOC 2 Type II, HITRUST r2, ISO 27001, and CMMI controls.
“We had tried two other vendors for our after-hours helpdesk. The difference with InterScripts was that the analysts actually knew Epic. They were not reading off a flowchart. They understood the workflows. Our night-shift nurses stopped dreading system issues because they knew someone on the other end of the phone could actually fix it.”
