Intake + Scheduling

Combine digital patient intake with appointment booking in one AI call

Capture patient demographics and chief complaint on the initial call while booking the appointment—no handoffs, no data re-entry.

How it pays back

Eliminate dual entry

Caller provides information once on the phone. Intake data and booking confirmed in the same interaction. Staff no longer re-key demographics from intake forms.

Faster new-patient onboarding

By appointment time, EMR already contains name, DOB, phone, and appointment details. Clinical staff receive structured intake summary to review before the visit.

Better insurance readiness

Insurance details are captured on the call and presented to staff in a structured format for review and entry, reducing delays and eligibility surprises at check-in.

Reduce appointment no-shows

Confirmed appointment details, contact method, and arrival expectations are all clarified during the intake call—no caller confusion about when or where to arrive.

Appointment booked on first call

No second-touch scheduling needed

New patient record created instantly

Name, DOB, and phone written to EMR

Insurance captured at intake

Structured summary for staff review and entry

Call summary ready for chart

Intake transcript and structured fields for clinician

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI send insurance information directly to the EMR chart?

No. Insurance details are captured on the call and returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and enter into the patient record. This protects data integrity and compliance.

What if a caller's insurance isn't in the system?

The AI captures the information provided and flags it for staff. Your team verifies and enters it before or after the visit. No caller is turned away due to missing insurance.

Can the intake form be customized for my specialty?

Yes. The intake questionnaire is built per your practice workflows—chief complaint categories, allergy fields, medication history structure, and yes/no decision trees all align with your clinical needs.

How long does the entire intake and booking call take?

Typical calls run 3–6 minutes depending on patient complexity and availability. Urgent calls escalate to a human staff member if needed.

Does the AI make clinical decisions based on the intake?

No. The AI gathers information, flags urgency markers for human review, and returns a structured summary. Clinical triage and care decisions remain with your team.
