Fresno GI practices miss incoming referrals when front desk is busy. MedReception answers every call, captures the referring provider's information and clinical context, and ensures no referral falls through the cracks. Your team gets a structured summary ready to review.
If a referral caller reports acute abdominal pain, bleeding, or other red flags, the AI escalates the call to your clinical staff based on your triage rules. Routine follow-ups and procedure scheduling flow to automated booking or your coordinator, freeing your team to focus on urgent cases.
MedReception is built per your practice. We configure the intake to ask about procedure history, current symptoms, medication allergies, and referring provider details. Your team defines what triggers escalation, which providers handle which referral types, and how urgent calls reach you. Changes are free, forever.
Referral details and patient demographics are captured on the call and returned as a structured, pasteable summary for your staff to review and file. Appointment bookings and new patient records sync automatically with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, and Nextech.

No. The AI follows your triage rules to route calls. If a caller reports symptoms or findings you've flagged as urgent, the call is escalated to your clinical team. Your physicians and gastroenterologists decide clinical priority, not the AI.
The AI captures the referring provider's name, practice, and reason for referral on every call. That information is included in the structured intake summary your staff reviews. Your team can then contact the referring practice with updates or questions.
Yes, if you set it up that way. For routine referrals (e.g., follow-up colonoscopy), the AI can offer available appointment times and book directly into your schedule. Urgent or complex referrals are routed to your coordinator or clinical team for manual scheduling.
