How it pays back

Refill requests never slip through the cracks

Patients call with refill needs at any time. MedReception answers instantly, captures the medication name, quantity, and patient contact information, and routes the request to your clinical staff with a structured summary. Your team reviews, approves, and sends the prescription. No voicemail pile-up, no duplicate requests, no lost charts.

Intake during the refill call saves time later

When a new patient calls for a refill or contact lens order, the AI captures insurance, allergies, medication list, and current prescriptions on the call. That intake is returned as a structured summary your staff can review and file. Chart is ready before the patient's first visit or before you process the refill.

Routine refills handled 24/7 without clinical staff

Set up triage rules: routine eye drops and contact lens refills can be logged and queued for your clinical team during business hours. Urgent post-operative or glaucoma medication refills are escalated to on-call staff after hours. Your practice controls the routing; the AI enforces it.

Custom-built for your refill workflow

MedReception is configured per client, not plug-and-play. Your team tells us which medications are routine, which require clinical review, and which trigger urgent escalation. We build those rules into the AI. Edits and optimization are free for life as your practice evolves.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI approve or send prescriptions?

No. The AI captures the refill request and patient information on the call and routes it to your clinical staff as a structured summary. Your clinician reviews, approves, and sends the prescription. The AI escalates and organizes; your team makes every clinical decision.

How does the AI know which refills are routine and which need urgent escalation?

You set the rules during setup. Tell us which medications (eye drops, contact lens orders, glaucoma meds, post-op prescriptions) are routine, which require clinical review, and which trigger after-hours escalation. The AI applies those rules to every call.

Can the AI capture new patient information during a refill call?

Yes. When a new patient calls for a refill or contact lens order, the AI captures their name, date of birth, phone, insurance, allergies, current medications, and contact lens prescription. That intake is returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and file before or after the patient's first visit.

How long does setup take?

Launch takes about one week from signup. The EHR connection and your practice phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering the number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. There is no setup fee on managed plans.
