Orthopedics
AI receptionist that answers osteoarthritis patient calls, captures joint pain details and medication history, and schedules follow-ups and physical therapy appointments automatically.
OA patients often call with incomplete histories. The AI captures joint location, pain level, triggers, and current regimen so staff receive structured intake ready for review and filing.
Routine OA calls—post-injection follow-up, therapy scheduling, medication refill requests—are handled end-to-end without staff intervention. Urgent flares are flagged and routed immediately.
After-hours and weekend OA calls are answered and triaged automatically. Patients with non-urgent concerns never reach a held queue; urgent cases are escalated to nursing or on-call.
Clinical team spends less time on phone triage and appointment-chasing, more on patient care and joint evaluation.
Structured OA intake on every call
Joint location, pain scale, activity impact, current therapies, and injection history captured and returned to staff
Urgent flare-ups routed immediately
Call routing detects acute pain keywords and escalates to nursing or on-call clinician
Appointment slots filled from existing panel
Follow-up and PT bookings synced to EMR, reducing manual scheduling
HIPAA-aware by design
All patient data encrypted, stored securely, and passed to EMR only after staff review
The system is trained on orthopedic and rheumatology triage logic. Calls mentioning severe swelling, inability to bear weight, signs of infection, or new acute flares are flagged and routed to nursing or on-call immediately. Routine refill or follow-up calls are handled as intake and scheduled.
No. The AI captures patient-reported pain location, activity limitations, current treatments, and injection history during the call and returns this as a structured summary for staff to review and file. This keeps the AI out of clinical documentation while giving staff a head start.
Yes, if your PT scheduler or clinic uses an integrated calendar. The AI can book routine PT slots and sync them to your EMR as appointments. Complex PT evaluations or authorization questions are routed to staff.
The system integrates with major EMRs including athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, and Office Ally. Appointment and patient demographic data syncs directly. We configure the intake and routing logic to your OA workflows.
For new patients, the AI collects name, DOB, phone, insurance carrier (not details), and a full OA intake, then creates the patient record in your EMR. For established patients, the system recognizes them and populates their demographics, then captures the reason for the call and any updates.
