Surgical Specialty
Handle surgical scheduling, pre-op intake, and post-op follow-ups with an AI receptionist built for hand surgery workflows, HIPAA-compliant and EMR-integrated.
Pre-operative calls confirm NPO status, medications held, and consent signatures before patients arrive. Post-op follow-ups verify pain levels, swelling, and wound status without manual phone burden.
Acute hand injuries are routed immediately to on-call surgeons with structured injury type, mechanism, and neurovascular status captured on call. Workers' compensation and liability cases are flagged for staff.
Patient insurance information and prior authorization requests are captured during initial call and presented to your staff as a structured summary for verification and filing—not auto-populated to the chart.
Post-operative complications or urgent questions trigger immediate escalation to on-call coverage. No surgical emergency sits in voicemail overnight.

The AI verifies patient understanding of surgery, risks, and recovery during intake and documents consent status in a structured summary for your staff to file and countersign in the chart. Written consent still requires patient signature.
After surgery, the AI calls patients at scheduled intervals to verify pain control, swelling, wound integrity, and medication compliance. Concerning responses trigger immediate escalation to your on-call provider or nurse triage line.
Yes. Appointment confirmations and new patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) sync to your EMR. Surgical histories and clinical findings captured on the call are returned as structured summaries for your staff to review and file in the chart.
Callers reporting acute hand injuries are asked mechanism, neurovascular status, and bleeding control. If urgent criteria are met, the call escalates to your on-call surgeon or nurse hotline immediately. Non-urgent cases are scheduled for first available slot.
The AI asks about surgery type and patient insurance during intake and returns that information as a structured summary. Your staff uses that to verify prior auth status with the payer. Insurance details are captured and presented for your team's review and action.
