Call type
Work Note Requests
Work note calls are simple but repetitive. Without a process, they block phone lines.
What these calls involve
- •Excuse notes
- •Return-to-work letters
- •Clarifying what needs to be included
Why they interrupt staff
- •Paperwork coordination during clinic hours
- •Repeat calls if expectations are unclear
- •Pull staff off patient-facing tasks
How AI reception helps
- •Captures request details up front
- •Routes to the right admin owner
- •Confirms receipt so callers don’t chase
Low-value calls shouldn’t block lines.
Bottom line
A clear intake loop keeps work-note requests from slowing the desk.
