New Patient Intake

New Patient Data Captured on First Call—Structured, Ready for EMR Filing

Mesa practices capture new patient demographics, insurance, and chief complaint during the booking call. AI returns structured data that staff file in the EMR chart. No separate intake forms, no paper.

How it pays back

New patient arrives with complete intake data

Your staff have name, DOB, insurance, chief complaint, and allergy info before the patient sits in the chair. No intake coordinator needed at check-in. Clinician has context immediately.

Insurance details captured for verification

Coverage details are captured on the call and returned in the intake summary. Your billing team can review eligibility and coverage details before appointment day.

Clinical history captured on day one

New patients provide relevant medical history, current meds, and allergies during booking. Staff review the structured summary, file it in the chart, and flag any red flags before the visit.

Intake staff time cut in half

No phone calls to patients for missing data, no paper form chasing, no manual chart building. Staff receive a structured summary ready for filing.

Frequently asked questions

How does the AI know what intake questions to ask?

You configure intake templates per specialty. A dermatology intake asks about skin conditions and sun exposure. A cardiology intake asks about chest pain and family history. The AI adapts questions based on the chief complaint.

What if a new patient is uncomfortable sharing insurance details on the phone?

The AI offers alternatives: they can provide it during check-in, or via a secure portal link sent after the call. You decide your preference. Data is always encrypted and HIPAA-compliant.

How is insurance information handled?

Insurance details are captured on the call and returned as part of the intake summary. Your billing or intake staff review the information and file it in the patient's chart and billing system.

Can patients upload documents or photos during intake?

The AI call captures text-based information. Patients can upload photos, medical records, or documents via a secure MedReception portal link sent after booking. Staff review and attach to the chart.

What if the patient is non-English speaking?

MedReception supports multiple languages. You configure the AI's language preference. Intake is conducted in the patient's preferred language with the same accuracy and structure.
