AI receptionist designed for healthcare: handling inbound calls, scheduling, and patient intake in regulated environments

Purpose-built AI receptionist for healthcare practices handles HIPAA-compliant call management, appointment scheduling, and structured patient intake. Works across EMRs and phone systems.

How it pays back

No missed calls in healthcare

Every inbound call is answered, never dropped to voicemail. Patients reach you immediately or receive a callback queue.

Appointment bookings and demographics sync to your EMR

New patient names, DOB, and phone numbers write directly to your EMR. Structured intake summaries—including chief complaint, insurance details, and other captured information—are returned as EMR-pasteable summaries for your staff to review and file.

Compliance built in, not bolted on

Call data is encrypted, audit trails logged, and PII never stored on public servers. Designed for HIPAA from the ground up.

Staff time redirected to patient care

Receptionist tasks—answering, scheduling, intake—run on the AI. Your team focuses on clinical work and complex patient needs.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI receptionist handle insurance verification?

The AI captures insurance information during the call and returns it as a structured summary for your staff to verify and file. Insurance details are reviewed and entered by your team to ensure accuracy.

Can it handle complex patient questions or medical advice?

The AI is designed to triage, not diagnose. It captures the patient's chief complaint and reason for the call, then routes complex or urgent questions to your clinical staff. Medical advice always comes from your providers.

What happens if a patient requests to speak to a human?

Patients can request transfer to a live staff member at any time. The AI will offer that option and connect them immediately if your team is available, or schedule a callback.

Does it work with my EMR?

MedReception integrates with Epic, eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, AdvancedMD, ModMed, and others. Check the integrations list for your specific system.

How is patient data protected?

All calls are encrypted in transit and at rest. Call recordings and transcripts are stored in HIPAA-compliant infrastructure. Audit logs track who accessed what data and when. No PII is sent to third parties.
