Healthcare AI

AI receptionist that reads your EMR to confirm appointments and syncs new bookings and patient demographics directly into your chart

An AI receptionist that works inside your EMR ecosystem: reads your existing schedule, confirms availability during calls, books appointments directly into your system, and writes new patient demographics without manual data entry.

How it pays back

Single Source of Truth for Scheduling

Your EMR is the master calendar. The AI reads it before confirming availability, so double-bookings and schedule conflicts never happen. When an appointment is booked on the phone, it appears in your EMR instantly.

Zero Manual Data Entry

Appointment bookings, new patient demographics, and call summaries flow directly into your EMR. Your front desk team is no longer manually entering data into two systems—the phone system and the EMR.

Faster Clinical Workflow

Providers open a chart and the patient's appointment is already there, their demographics are complete, and their intake summary is ready. No chart prep, no 'patient not in system' delays.

Vendor Agnostic

Whether you use Epic, Athena, NextGen, or a smaller EMR, the AI integrates without proprietary custom work. Switching EMRs doesn't require rebuilding your phone system.

Real-time appointment writes

Bookings appear in your EMR seconds after the call ends

Demographics auto-synced

Name, DOB, phone, address written directly to patient record

Fallback capture if EMR unavailable

Appointment data captured locally and synced when connection restores

Frequently asked questions

How does the AI receptionist read my EMR availability?

The AI integrates with your EMR's API (if available) or reads a real-time calendar feed. This connection is secure and read-only for calendar data. The AI checks availability before confirming an appointment so it never books over an existing visit.

What EMR systems does MedReception integrate with?

MedReception integrates with 13+ major EMR platforms including Epic, Cerner, NextGen, Athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Allscripts, DrChrono, Greenway, and many others. Check the integrations page or contact MedReception to confirm your specific system.

What information is written to my EMR?

The AI writes: (1) Appointment bookings—date, time, provider, reason for visit; (2) New patient demographics—name, date of birth, phone, address. Medical history, allergies, medications, and chief complaint are captured as a structured summary for your staff to review and file. This keeps clinical documentation under human oversight.

What if my EMR goes down or the integration fails?

The AI captures appointment information locally and returns a summary to your staff. When your EMR comes back online, the data can be manually entered or auto-synced if the integration recovers. Your team is never left unable to book appointments.

Do I need to change my EMR workflow to use an AI receptionist?

No. The AI integrates into your existing EMR and workflow. Your staff accesses appointments the same way; the data just populates from the AI instead of being entered manually. Training is minimal because nothing changes in your front-end process.
