Orthopedic Practices

Orthopedic practices in Fresno field injury calls, post-op follow-ups, and referrals during peak hours. When your front desk is full, calls go unanswered. Katie answers every call, books ortho appointments on the spot, and routes urgent injuries to the right provider.

MedReception AI handles the phone volume orthopedic practices can't absorb during business hours and after hours. Every caller gets a live voice, appointment booking happens during the call, and urgent cases are escalated by the rules you set. Your front desk stays focused on check-ins and chart prep.

How it pays back

No More Dropped Calls During Peak Hours

Your front desk is checking in patients, verifying insurance, and prepping rooms. Incoming calls pile up. Katie answers all of them at once, books appointments, and routes urgent cases. Your team stays focused on the patients already in the practice.

Ortho Intake Structured for Your Workflow

Katie asks about prior injuries, current symptoms, post-op status, and insurance. The call is recorded as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary. Your staff review it, file it, and the chart is ready when the patient arrives. No re-asking on intake forms.

Urgent Calls Escalated by Your Rules

You set the criteria: same-day injury, post-op complication, or high pain level goes to your urgent queue. Routine follow-ups and appointment requests are logged and scheduled normally. Urgent cases never wait in a general queue.

Custom-Built for Your Practice, Not Plug-and-Play

We build Katie for your ortho workflow, provider schedule, and EMR. Your onboarding team walks you through every call scenario, edits and optimization are free for life, and you can switch EMRs later without losing your AI.

How does Katie handle urgent ortho calls?

You tell us what makes a call urgent for your practice: same-day injury, post-op complication, high pain level, or specific provider requests. Katie flags those calls and routes them to your urgent queue. Routine follow-ups and appointment requests are logged normally. Your clinical team decides what counts as urgent; Katie enforces your rules.

What happens to calls after hours?

Annie, our after-hours AI, answers evening and weekend calls. She captures injury details, post-op concerns, and routine appointment requests. Everything is summarized and ready for your team Monday morning. You decide which calls get a callback that night and which can wait.

How long does setup take?

Launch takes about one week from signup. Your EMR connection and practice phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering the number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. Your onboarding team will walk you through call scenarios and ortho-specific workflows before Katie goes live.

Is MedReception HIPAA compliant?

Yes. MedReception is HIPAA compliant, verified by Compliancy Group, and signs a BAA. All calls, intake summaries, and patient data are encrypted and stored securely. We also comply with PIPEDA and PHIPA in Canada and the Privacy Act and APP in Australia.
