How it Works

Pay per minute healthcare interpreting connects you instantly to a certified medical interpreter — by phone or app — without contracts or monthly minimums. You only pay for the minutes you use.

Ideal for scenarios such as:

Communicating with patients who have limited English proficiency during intake or triage
Supporting telehealth appointments with language interpretation
Explaining diagnoses and treatment instructions accurately
Facilitating caregiver/patient or family communication
Interacting with insurance, billing, or authorization conversations

Short or long encounters — connect with confidence when it matters most.

Ensure compliance with a medical interpreter in 3 easy steps

Language access protects you and your patients. It lowers the risk of misunderstanding, misdiagnoses, inadequately informed consent, and the inability to follow treatment plans, which can result in lawsuits, increased expenses, and repeat visits.
