Practice Management
Physicians lose new patients to missed calls and slow callbacks. An AI receptionist answers every incoming call in seconds, captures patient information, and books appointments directly into your EMR—freeing your staff to focus on care.
Most physician practices receive calls they miss—from new patients, existing patients requesting refills, and urgent cases. An AI receptionist answers every call before it rings to voicemail, captures the caller's intent, and either books them or escalates appropriately. Practices report that answering every call is a significant source of growth.
The AI captures the caller's name, date of birth, phone, reason for visit, and any questionnaire responses during the call. That data is returned as a structured summary ready for staff review and filing—not left in a voicemail or forwarded email. Your staff spends seconds confirming, not minutes hunting for information. Appointment bookings and patient demographics sync to your EMR; clinical content (symptoms, medical history, medications, allergies) is captured on the call and returned as a pasteable summary for your team to review and file.
When a caller asks to schedule, the AI checks your real-time availability, confirms the appointment, and writes it to your EMR immediately. No manual entry. No double-bookings. The patient receives a text confirmation.
The AI listens for phrases like 'I can't breathe,' 'severe chest pain,' or 'bleeding' and escalates to your team or on-call physician instantly. Routine calls—refill requests, billing questions—are routed to appropriate staff without interrupting clinicians.

Yes. The AI introduces itself immediately and patients recognize they're speaking to a system. Most patients prefer instant pickup over waiting on hold. If a patient requests a human, the call escalates to your staff in seconds. Practices report high patient satisfaction because calls are answered faster and appointment data is more accurate.
No. The AI captures structured data—chief complaint, symptom checklist, medication list, insurance info (if needed), and appointment request. This data is returned to your staff as a summary ready to review and file into the EMR, not autofilled. Your physicians and nurses review and document as normal.
The AI integrates with Epic, eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, AdvancedMD, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, and ModMed. New patient records, demographics, and appointment bookings sync directly. If your EMR is not on the list, the AI can still capture data and export it for manual entry.
Yes. The AI can route calls to different office locations, on-call pools, or specialty departments. Callers hear a message: 'Which location are you calling—downtown or west campus?' and calls are routed accordingly. Each location's schedule and staff are independent.
The AI answers the same way it does during business hours. You can route after-hours calls to an on-call physician, an answering service, or the AI can take a message and send it to your on-call alert system. Many practices use the AI to book urgent after-hours calls into an on-call slot.
