Call Handling
Route incoming calls intelligently to the right provider or department, flag urgent cases for immediate escalation, and reduce call hold times with AI-powered triage.
AI identifies high-acuity patient calls and escalates immediately to on-call providers or emergency protocols, ensuring no urgent patient falls through gaps in coverage.
Structured intake during the call captures chief complaint, symptoms, and patient history before transfer, so the receiving provider has clinical context ready.
Your front desk no longer manually screens every call to determine urgency—AI pre-qualifies and routes, freeing staff for other patient-facing tasks.
All triage decisions and transfers are logged with timestamps and reasoning, creating an audit trail for quality assurance and regulatory review.

No delay between identification and provider notification

Automatic activation of on-call routing without staff prompt
The AI listens for clinical keywords—chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe bleeding, uncontrolled symptoms—and cross-references against the patient's chief complaint and medical history. When high-acuity indicators are detected, it flags the call and routes immediately to on-call or emergency protocols without delay.
All triage calls and escalation logic are logged with recordings and reasoning available for staff review. Your clinical team can audit decisions and provide feedback, which continuously improves the AI's understanding of your practice protocols.
Yes. You define your routing rules—e.g., GI patients → gastroenterology nurse line, acute symptoms → on-call physician, billing questions → front desk. The AI applies these rules consistently and can adapt based on time of day, provider availability, and patient history.
Yes. Call notes, triage summary, and patient demographics sync directly to your EMR. Chief complaint, symptoms, and clinical flags are returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and file in the patient chart.
The AI can route to a holding queue, send a callback offer, or transfer directly to another department. Each routing decision and wait time is logged for quality assurance and compliance.
