  • Publication number: 20240054299
    Abstract: A computer-implemented process receives, at a language interpretation platform from a customer service agent computing device, a request to establish a language interpretation session with a user. In addition, the computer-implemented process places a call from the language interpretation platform to a user mobile computing device. The computer-implemented process, upon the user not answering the call, automatically transmits a message to the user mobile computing device indicating one or more language interpretation connection options. Additionally, the computer-implemented process establishes, via the language interpretation platform, a language interpretation session between the customer service agent computing device, a language interpreter computing device, and the user mobile computing device based on the one or more language interpretation options.

  • Publication number: 20230289537
    Abstract: A computer-implemented process computer-implemented process renders, at an EMR device positioned at a healthcare provider location, an EMR user interface to access EMR data of a patient. Furthermore, the computer-implemented process receives, via a language interpretation request indicum of the EMR user interface, a request for language interpretation. The computer-implemented process sends, from the EMR device to an EMR server, the EMR data of the patient. Additionally, the computer-implemented process receivers, from the EMR server at the EMR device, a visual code indicium. Finally, the computer-implemented process renders, at the EMR device, the visual code indicium to link the EMR device with a language interpretation device also positioned at the healthcare provider location such that the language interpretation device renders a language interpretation session between a healthcare provider and the patient without being rendered by the EMR device.

  • Publication number: 20210335502
    Abstract: A computer-implemented process receives, during a telehealth conference, an interpreter invitation according to a modality generated through a user interface at a provider computing device operated by the healthcare provider. An example of a modality is a web form, email, hyperlink, phone call via an interactive voice recognition system, mobile software application, desktop tool tray software application, text message, calendar invitation, QR code, or the like. The computer-implemented process routes the interpreter invitation from the telehealth platform to a language interpretation platform that extracts an invitation request payload from the interpreter invitation and routes the invitation request payload, through an automatic call distribution network, to a next available language interpreter operating a language interpreter workstation such that the language interpreter workstation automatically selects a plugin according to a teleconference platform indicated by the invitation request payload.

  • Patent number: 11018954
    Abstract: A process generates, at a language interpretation platform, a graphical user interface that manages a connection time between a user-operated device and a language interpreter-operated device. Further, the process receives, from the graphical user interface of the user-operated device, a request for a live language interpretation session. The process determines, from the graphical user interface of the user-operated device, an activation of a queue prioritization status. The activation is selected from the group consisting of: an automatic account activation, a user-inputted activation via a virtual indicium in the graphical user interface, and an environmental activation. Finally, the process assigns, to the graphical user interface of the user-operated device, the prioritization status to the user-operated device to prioritize the connection time in a queue of waiting devices.
