Patient Intake

Complete patient intake forms during the call—not after

AI receptionists capture intake data in real time during patient phone calls, structuring responses into EMR-ready summaries your staff can file immediately. No forms to chase, no incomplete data.

How it pays back

Intake data ready before the morning briefing

When your team arrives, intake summaries are already structured and waiting. Staff review and file into the chart—no hunting for incomplete forms.

Fewer missed details, cleaner charts

AI asks intake questions in a consistent sequence. Responses are captured verbatim and organized by field, so nothing falls through the cracks.

New patient setup starts immediately

Appointment and basic demographics are written to your EMR on the call. Your staff aren't manually entering what the AI already collected.

Faster appointment slot availability

Because intake happens during booking, your front desk is free to help the next caller instead of hunting down forms or making callbacks.

New patient records created during the call

Structured intake summary returned

Staff-ready, EMR-pasteable format—no manual transcription

Call-time data capture

HIPAA encryption and compliance

Voice and data secured end-to-end on every call

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI write intake data directly into our EMR chart?

Appointment bookings and new patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) write to your EMR. Medical history, symptoms, medications, and questionnaire answers are captured on the call and returned as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary for your staff to review and file. This keeps data accuracy in your team's hands.

What happens if a patient doesn't answer all intake questions during the call?

The AI is adaptive. If a question doesn't apply or the patient is unclear, the AI moves forward. Your staff receives the summary with all captured fields and notes where information is incomplete, so you can follow up with the patient before their appointment.

Can the AI adjust intake questions by medical specialty or visit type?

Yes. Intake flows are configured by your practice settings and chief complaint. A dermatology practice asking about rashes will see different conditional questions than a cardiology practice asking about chest pain.

Do patients have to fill out a paper or online form after the call?

No. Intake is complete on the call. If your practice wants additional detail or a patient signature, that can be handled before the appointment via the MedReception portal or printed on arrival, but routine intake data is already captured.

How does this work with after-hours calls?

After-hours calls are handled identically. Intake data is captured and structured overnight. Your team reviews the summaries in the morning and can prep charts or contact the patient if needed before their appointment.
