Customer Support Processes
Handling inbound calls.
⦁ Accept the call by clicking on the green answer button on the left hand side of Tasksuite.
⦁ Greet the caller
⦁ “Thank you for contacting the Celltrion Diatrust Covid-19 Test kit Support team, my name is <your name>. How may I be of assistance?”
⦁ Listen to the caller’s complaint/question/comment.
⦁ You do not need to ask for a name unless the caller is reporting an issue. See the appropriate escalation process for each issue type.
⦁ Respond to the caller appropriately by utilizing the Question and Answer guide (Q&A Guide).
⦁ In the event the inquiry/comment/question is not covered by any existing responses in the Q&A guide DO NOT provide an off the cuff (winged) response.
⦁ Respond to the individual letting them know we do not have an answer for that inquiry currently but we will bring it to the escalation team’s attention and follow up with an answer. Do not make promises we cannot keep. Timelines for follow up should be 48-72 business hours.
⦁ Urgent escalations need to be brought to George Barbour’s attention so additional guidance or assistance can be rendered as necessary.
⦁ Disposition the call in TaskSuite by selecting the appropriate call disposition and add notes regarding the call.
⦁ Escalations will require additional information to be gathered. You should have a template pop-up once the appropriate escalation type has been selected from the call disposition list.
⦁ In the event you are filing out an escalation, follow the escalation process specific to the type of escalation you are filing.
⦁ Ask if the caller has any other inquiries that we can assist with.
⦁ Thank the customer for calling.
⦁ If the caller does not disconnect the call click the end call button on Tasksuite.
⦁ You’re ready for the next call!
Outbound Calls
Currently support requests will be generated by inbound contacts though at time we might need to place an outbound call to respond to an inbound request. Outbound calls should be handled essentially the same as an inbound call, except you are initiating it instead of the customer calling in to initiate it.
⦁ Review the Helpdesk request in its entirety.
⦁ Compose your answer prior to reaching out to the customer.
⦁ Place the outbound call.
⦁ Introduce yourself once you reach the customer or their VM.
⦁ In the event you reach the individual’s VM leave a short simple message as appropriate. Use best judgement to decide if you should leave the full answer or a brief response & encourage to contact us back. The majority of responses can be left in the VM. Inquiries that will lead to an escalation should be encouraged to respond/call us back.
⦁ Respond to the individuals request appropriately utilizing the Q&A guide.
⦁ Confirm resolution and no further inquiries.
Handling Email & Fax Requests
Email, Fax, and Voicemail requests will all be handled under the “Helpdesk” module in Tasksuite. Most of the time you will want to just stay on the Helpdesk module as calls can be answered from any module.
⦁ Navigate to the Helpdesk section of Tasksuite. (See the Check for Emails/Fax/VM process)
⦁ Verify your filters are correctly looking for any open issue (remove the “mine” default filter by clicking the “x” next to it).
⦁ Click on an open email request.
⦁ (image pending)
⦁ Scroll down and read through the request.
⦁ To respond click “Send message”, compose your response using the Q&A guide, then click “send”.
⦁ If the question/inquiry has been answered in its entirety mark the ticket as complete/closed.
Fax
If a fax needs to have a fax based response you will need to log into the Efax system and process.
For now, if one is required please see George. Fax’s will be visible in the Helpdesk module. They are sent into the system as email’s. Fax responses must be sent via the Efax system.
Escalation processing
No answer available for customer question
In rare cases we might receive a question that we do not have a defined response to in the Q&A list. In the event this occurs take the following steps to reach a resolution.
⦁ Double check the Q&A list to verify no existing response fits the inquiry.
⦁ Fully document the inquiry.
⦁ Verify the inquiry with the customer.
⦁ Verify contact information for follow up once an answer is identified.
⦁ Make a note of the preferred contact method and any time constraints if applicable.
⦁ Set proper expectations with the customer.
⦁ Customers should expect follow up after 48 business hours.
⦁ TEMPORARY STEP: Email George Barbour with the escalation.
⦁ Assign the system generated ticket (Helpdesk module) to George Barbour.
⦁ George will be a second validation point prior to escalation of questions/complaints that do not fit the pre-defined “expected” escalations. (Adverse report/Device report escalations).
⦁ George will forward the inquiry to the product team after verifying no existing answer is available for the request.
⦁ After a response is received from the escalation team, or after the timeframe for follow up has elapsed, follow up with the original requestor to provide the answer or update expectations as to when an answer will be provided.
⦁ Update the ticket with any appropriate notes.
⦁ If no further contact is required to answer the inquiry close out the ticket via the helpdesk Module.
Escalation – Device Problem/Defective Device – Manufacturer at Fault
If a customer contacts support to report an issue with the device that is related to manufacturing follow this process. This type of escalation would be used in the event that a customer reports any of the following: Missing testing components (no swab, no buffer solution, no IFU, etc.), aluminum test pouches were not sealed, test pouches do not contain all expected components, test kits are missing from the package, incorrect number of test kits were in the package, wrong components, etc.
⦁ Apologize to the customer for the issue they’ve experienced and for any inconvenience it has caused them.
⦁ Ask probing questions to verify this is a manufacturer’s issue.
⦁ Select the correct disposition on tasksuite.
⦁ Work In Progress
⦁ Currently we will need to fill out the adverse event report form manually. Once it has been filled out get a copy to George to escalate to the appropriate team(s).
⦁ In the next iteration of Tasksuite the system will screen pop an email template with the form for us to fill out. Once complete it will auto send to the appropriate individuals. Until then this needs to be done manually.

If asked to provide a replacement kit politely inform the customer that we’re unable to facilitate a replacement for improperly performed tests.
⦁ Offer to assist with any other questions or concerns.

Escalation – False Result (False Positive/Negative)

⦁ Apologize to the customer for the issue they’ve experienced and for any inconvenience it has caused them.
⦁ Ask probing questions to identify if the customer is reporting a verified false result or if they are reporting a potential false result.
⦁ In the event it is not a confirmed false result ask the customer to re-test. If they are non-symptomatic and believe they are incorrectly receiving a negative result verify that the caller has properly serial tested.
