Microsoft Teams Voice for the NHS

Posted by Alfie McDonald on February 11th 2022

Accelerated by the pandemic, the adoption of Microsoft Teams and the wider stack across the NHS has been crucial in creating a more modern national health service. The use of Teams has enabled staff to work and communicate more efficiently and effectively, enabling better delivery of care for patients.

Traditionally, calls via MS Teams could only be made through the internet, or, if you knew the recipient’s email address. However, by connecting Teams to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), you are able to easily make and receive external calls. This means you can leverage the full functionality of Teams, whilst maintaining the benefits of a traditional cloud telephony system at a fraction of the cost.
