Scheduling & Booking

Verify patient identity, collect intake data, and confirm appointment details in one call

AI receptionist verifies established patient identity, collects updated demographics and medical history, and confirms appointment all in a single call—eliminating transferred calls and callback delays.

How it pays back

Verified Appointment Bookings, Every Time

Patient identity confirmed before booking. No mix-ups with same-name patients or wrong appointments in the schedule.

Current Patient Data at the Time of Booking

AI collects updated phone, address, insurance, and medical status during the call. Your EMR reflects current demographics before the patient arrives.

Frequently asked questions

How does the AI verify patient identity?

The AI asks the patient for their date of birth and last name, which it uses to look up their record in your EMR. It confirms key details (address, provider name) to confirm identity before proceeding with booking or intake.

What if the patient's information doesn't match the EMR?

The AI alerts your staff for manual verification. A staff member reaches out to confirm the caller's identity and make any needed corrections to the patient record before finalizing the appointment.

Does the AI ask the same intake questions for established patients as new patients?

No. For established patients, the AI asks focused questions about changes: new medications, new allergies, change in symptoms, or updates to insurance. For new patients, it collects full history.

Can patients reschedule appointments through the AI?

Yes. If the patient calls to reschedule, the AI verifies their identity, confirms the new requested time, and updates their appointment in your schedule.

What information is written to the EMR?

The appointment booking, updated demographics (name, DOB, phone, address), and appointment confirmation are written directly to your EMR. Updated medical history, insurance information, and intake details are returned as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary for clinical staff to review and file.
