How the numbers are worked out
Staff times salary gives the monthly cost. Hours open a day times days a week gives the hours covered, out of the 168 hours in a week. The rest are hours when a patient who calls reaches nobody.
Pluxo's figure is the Core plan from the pricing page with 18 percent GST added. It covers the phone and WhatsApp only; patients at the counter still need your staff. The AI receptionist vs hiring comparison sets out what each one does.
