For many Medicare plan providers, TTY compliance is often viewed as a regulatory requirement, but when treated strategically, it becomes a competitive advantage that drives member satisfaction, brand trust, and long-term growth. With the right accessibility software, you’re not just checking boxes; you’re leading with inclusion.
When it comes to CMS Star Ratings, accessibility is non-negotiable. Healthcare contact centers are expected to provide accessible customer support for all members, including those who are deaf, hard of hearing, or speech impaired. Failing to meet these expectations doesn’t just impact compliance—it can damage your CMS performance and your brand reputation.
For healthcare organizations, earning a CMS 5-Star Rating is a critical indicator of quality, trust, and member satisfaction. In a landscape where members expect accessible, responsive care, your contact center plays a pivotal role in achieving and maintaining this rating.
Clear, reliable communication is essential in customer service—especially for those who rely on TTY (Text Telephone) technology. For individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing, or speech-impaired, TTY provides a vital connection to the support they need. That’s why we’re excited to introduce our automated testing service, a behind-the-scenes testing feature designed to ensure TTY calls are always received, routed, and handled properly. Built with a focus on call reliability and agent readiness, this automated test is especially valuable for serving Medicare customers, where accessibility and compliance are non-negotiable.

But what does ADA compliance really mean for call centers? Let's dive deep and demystify ADA compliance in this setting, spotlighting how NexTalk offers a path to seamless integration.
