Migraine Care
After-hours migraine calls are answered by AI, triaged for severity, and urgent cases are escalated to your on-call provider with a structured alert. Patients receive immediate direction instead of a voicemail.
Patient calls after hours with red flags (sudden severe headache, vision changes, weakness). AI escalates immediately with structured alert. On-call provider gets summary and patient contact instantly.
Mild-to-moderate migraine exacerbations after hours are triaged by AI. If manageable at home or in clinic, patient receives advice or is scheduled for early morning visit. ER is reserved for true emergencies.
Provider receives not just 'patient with migraine' but symptom onset, current meds, red flags, and patient contact—ready for clinical decision without re-intake.
Medication refill or appointment questions after hours? AI captures intake and routes to daytime staff with full context. No need to wake the provider for non-urgent issues.
After-hours calls answered immediately
No voicemail dead ends, no ER self-referrals due to unreachable clinic
Urgent alerts sent in seconds
On-call provider receives structured migraine triage and contact info instantly
Red flags identified and escalated
Sudden severe onset, focal neuro symptoms, and status migrainosus trigger immediate provider alert
Routine calls queued for morning
Medication refills and scheduling questions captured and routed to daytime staff
The AI asks about symptom onset, severity, associated symptoms (vomiting, vision changes, weakness), current migraine status, medications tried, and any red flags (first migraine, sudden severe onset, focal neuro symptoms). Based on your clinic's protocols, calls meeting urgent criteria trigger an immediate on-call provider alert. Others are queued for daytime staff.
That's your choice. The system can send a text alert with the migraine triage summary, an urgent voicemail with full context, or both. The on-call provider has the information they need to decide whether to call the patient immediately or wait for morning.
The AI screens for red flags and alerts the on-call provider. If the provider determines urgent ER evaluation is needed, they can advise the patient directly or call back for more detail. The patient is not abandoned; they have a provider response, not a voicemail.
The AI can offer general comfort measures (dark, quiet room, hydration) and advise the patient to call back if symptoms worsen or contact daytime staff in the morning. For routine calls, the AI tells patients daytime staff will follow up in the morning. Any clinical guidance is validated by your on-call provider.
You provide the AI with your on-call rotation (provider name, alert method, phone/text contact). The system automatically routes urgent after-hours calls to the current on-call provider based on your schedule. If the on-call provider is unavailable, the system escalates to the backup per your protocol.
