Scheduling
Patients call expecting to schedule instantly. An AI receptionist checks your real-time availability, confirms the slot with the caller, and writes the appointment to your EMR in seconds. Your staff handles zero booking calls.
Patients hate waiting. An AI receptionist offers available slots immediately and confirms with a single voice command. Most patients book within 30 seconds of the offer. No 'I'll have someone call you back' delay.
Appointment booking is the largest single drain on front-desk time. The AI removes it entirely. Your team now handles cancellations, rescheduling edge cases, and patient questions—not routine bookings.
The AI reads your EMR availability in real time. Once a slot is offered and confirmed, it's locked immediately. No more 'I didn't see that booked' conflicts or patients showing up for a slot that was already taken.
The AI doesn't just book—it captures why the patient is coming, their insurance, and any questionnaire. The patient hangs up with a confirmed appointment and a text reminder. Your staff receives a complete intake summary.

The AI pulls your EMR schedule via a direct integration (athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, AdvancedMD, ModMed). It reads open slots, provider schedules, and buffer time. When a patient asks to schedule, the AI offers available times immediately. Once confirmed, the appointment is written to the EMR instantly.
The AI confirms before booking: 'So you'd like to see Dr. Johnson on Tuesday, June 18th at 2 PM for a follow-up visit. Is that correct?' Patients can correct themselves. If they book incorrectly, staff see the full call recording and context, so rescheduling is quick.
Yes. If there's no availability, the AI offers: 'I don't have any open slots before July, but I can add you to the waitlist and call you back if someone cancels.' Cancellations are captured, and the AI immediately calls the next person on the list to fill the slot.
Absolutely. The AI can ask 'Which location are you calling—downtown or west campus?' and show availability for each separately. Multi-provider schedules and location-specific constraints are handled automatically.
Yes. The AI's phone line is always available, or patients can use a self-service portal to reschedule. The AI automatically detects cancellations and calls waitlisted patients to backfill the slot.
