Efficiency

Capture new patient details on the call and sync to your EMR automatically

Anaheim practices spend hours on phone intake and manual data entry. An AI receptionist captures patient name, DOB, contact info, and reason for visit on the call—then syncs demographics and appointment to your EMR in seconds.

How it pays back

Receptionists Stop Doing Phone Intake

The AI gathers patient information while your team handles check-in, insurance cards, and room setup. Phone intake is no longer a bottleneck.

Chart Data Ready Before First Visit

Patient demographics and appointment are already in your EMR. Clinical staff sees correct contact info, DOB from day one.

Insurance Information Captured for Verification

Patient provides insurance information on the call. Your staff reviews the structured summary and verifies benefits with complete data already captured.

Reduce No-Shows and Wrong Numbers

Correct phone number and confirmed appointment details are logged. Your confirmation texts and reminders reach patients at the right number.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI really sync to our EMR?

Yes. MedReception integrates with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, and others. Patient demographics—name, DOB, phone, address—and the appointment are written directly to your EMR. Chief complaint, insurance information, and other intake details are returned as a structured summary for your staff to review, verify, and file.

What if a patient does not provide insurance?

The AI asks for insurance but does not block the appointment if the patient declines. Insurance status is captured as part of the intake summary and flagged for your staff to follow up before the visit.

Can we customize the intake questions?

Yes. You can configure the AI to ask specific questions based on your specialty. For example, a dermatology practice might ask about previous skin procedures, while a surgical practice might ask about medication allergies and prior surgeries.

Is patient data secure during intake?

All calls are encrypted and handled according to HIPAA standards. Patient data is never shared with third parties and is stored securely until your staff reviews and files it.

What happens if the patient gives incorrect information?

Your staff reviews the intake summary before the visit and can correct any errors in the EMR. If the patient provides wrong contact info, your team can call to verify before the appointment.

How long does intake take with the AI?

Typically 3-4 minutes for a full new patient intake including appointment booking. Your receptionists currently spend 10-15 minutes on the phone and another 5-10 minutes entering data manually. The AI reduces total time and eliminates re-entry.
