Frequently asked questions

What information can the AI pull about a member's billing?

The AI accesses member name, membership tier, annual renewal date, annual fee amount, benefits included in the tier, current subscription status (active/renewal-pending/lapsed), and payment history from your practice management or EMR system. The AI uses this to answer routine billing questions and escalates complex issues to staff.

Can the AI actually process payments during a call?

Yes. If the member authorizes payment, the AI can send a secure payment link via text or email, or integrate with your payment processor to charge the member's card on file (with PCI compliance). The AI confirms the transaction and logs it in your system.

What if there's a billing error or dispute?

The AI recognizes when a member is disputing a charge or reporting an error (e.g., "I was charged twice"). It immediately escalates the call to a staff member or flags it for morning review. The AI captures the nature of the dispute and all relevant details so staff can investigate efficiently.

How does the AI handle members asking about billing privacy or concerns?

The AI confirms caller identity by asking security questions (last four of SSN, date of birth, membership ID) before discussing any billing details. If a member is uncomfortable discussing billing with the AI, they can request immediate transfer to a staff member. The system respects member preferences.
