Healthcare AI

AI receptionist that captures new patient information during the call and writes demographics to your EMR

New patient calls require detailed intake—name, date of birth, insurance, medical history, current medications. An AI receptionist captures this information during the call, writes demographics directly to your EMR, and returns clinical details as a structured summary for staff review.

How it pays back

New Patient Charts Ready Before Arrival

By the time a new patient arrives, their demographics are already in the EMR, their appointment is confirmed, and their medical history summary is ready for the provider. Check-in is faster, clinical time is more efficient.

Insurance Information Captured on First Contact

Instead of waiting for patients to bring insurance cards or discovering insurance gaps at checkout, the AI captures card information during the call. Your billing team has it immediately for verification and claims submission.

Reduced Check-In Friction

New patients who called ahead are not asked to re-enter their information at the front desk. Their demographics are already in the system. Check-in becomes a quick confirmation, not a 15-minute form session.

Clinical Handoff Is Structured

Medical history, medications, allergies, and chief complaint are returned as a clean summary. Providers spend less time reading incomplete or illegible intake forms and more time on clinical care.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI write clinical information directly to the EMR chart?

The AI writes demographics (name, DOB, phone, address) directly to the EMR. Medical history, allergies, medications, and chief complaint are captured as a structured summary that your staff reviews and files into the chart. This keeps clinical documentation under human oversight while automating demographic data entry.

How is insurance information handled during the call?

The AI captures insurance information during the call as part of the intake summary. This data is provided to your billing team for verification and claims submission. Your staff reviews it for accuracy before filing; the AI captures the information but does not auto-populate clinical or insurance fields in the chart.

Can the AI screen for safety or red flags during new patient intake?

Yes. The AI can ask targeted screening questions and flag responses for clinical review. For example, 'Do you have any allergies to medications?' or 'Are you currently on any blood thinners?' Answers are captured and highlighted in the summary so providers see them immediately.

What if a new patient has complex medical history that takes longer to explain?

The AI can capture detail and follow-up questions during the call. If the conversation is complex or the caller needs more time, the AI can escalate to your staff for a live phone consultation or book the patient and have them complete a detailed intake form before their visit.

Do new patients still need to fill out forms at check-in?

Significantly fewer. Demographic information is already in the system. Your staff can focus the check-in form on consent, updates to medical history since the call, and insurance card verification rather than re-entering data.
