CyraCom’s Mobile Application (app) was developed specifically for Android, iPhone, iPod, or iPad users in a medical setting, offering clients an efficient method to initiate Over-the-Phone Interpretation (OPI) calls in over 170 languages.

Mobile technology in healthcare is becoming more prevalent for communication, including in interactions with Limited English Proficient patients. CyraCom’s mobile app allows healthcare providers to connect to an interpreter with a mobile device, saving time in patient interactions.
