Podiatry

Your podiatry team is in surgery or with patients during lunch. Every call during that gap is answered and routed, no voicemail, no missed bookings.

MedReception AI answers every call during your lunch break, captures new patient details and appointment requests, and hands off structured summaries to your staff when you return. Calls route by provider, urgency, and your scheduling rules. No setup fee. Launch takes about one week.

How it pays back

No More Lunch-Hour Call Gaps

Your front desk takes a break or steps out for lunch. Calls don't stop. MedReception AI picks up every one, captures the caller's name, phone number, foot concern, and preferred appointment time. When your team returns, they see a clean list of booking requests, not a stack of missed call notifications.

Seamless Handoff to Your EMR

Appointment bookings and new patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) sync to athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, or your other supported EHR. Structured summaries of intake details are returned as EMR-pasteable records for your staff to review and file. Your team confirms bookings. No double data entry, no lost information.

Built by Your Podiatry Practice, Not a Generic Template

We customize MedReception AI for podiatry workflows: common foot conditions, provider schedules, your specific intake questions, and your preferred triage rules. Your team gets lifetime free edits and optimization. Switch EMRs later, keep your AI, it's portable and yours.

Urgent Calls Route Immediately

If a caller reports severe pain, infection signs, or a diabetic complication, MedReception AI escalates to on-call staff by your rules. Your team decides the clinical response; the AI routes and flags. No autonomous decisions, no chart changes.

Frequently asked questions

Can MedReception AI book appointments directly into my schedule during lunch?

Yes. If your EMR is athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, or another supported system, the AI books available slots and sends the confirmation to your staff. If your EHR is not on that list, the AI captures the request as a structured summary and your team enters it when you return. Either way, no call is missed.

What happens if a caller reports a diabetic foot ulcer or severe pain?

You set the escalation rules. If those keywords appear, MedReception AI flags the call and routes it to your on-call provider by phone or SMS, depending on your setup. Your clinician makes the clinical decision, same-day visit, urgent care referral, or other guidance. The AI does not make clinical calls; it routes and escalates.

How long does it take to set up?

Launch takes about one week from signup. Your EHR connection and phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering the number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. Your onboarding team handles the whole process and customizes intake questions and routing rules for podiatry.

Do I pay a flat monthly fee, or is there an overage charge?

Managed plans include a monthly block of minutes, then a per-minute rate if you exceed it. No setup fee. After your first three months, if you want to lock in a predictable cost, you can move to an annual plan priced on your actual usage. Pricing is transparent and scales with your practice.

What if we use an EHR that's not on your integration list?

MedReception AI still answers every call, captures intake, and sends structured summaries to your portal. Your staff enters the booking into your EHR manually. Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your EHR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours.
