Case 012 Federal Administration of Catalunya
Goals
In April 2013, the government approved concentrating all citizen phone-base services on number 012.

Strategy

Users indicate the purpose of their calls by means of an open-ended question and their answers are interpreted by the virtual agent, which routes the call to the specialty that can address the issue, preventing going through a generalist care provider
