Gastroenterology
Gastroenterology practices field complex intake calls: insurance verification, procedure prep questions, symptom details, and urgent referrals. MedReception AI answers every inbound call, captures structured patient information during the conversation, and routes or books appointments based on your rules. New patient demographics and appointments write to your EMR; clinical details and insurance information are captured on the call and returned as a structured summary your team reviews and files. No missed calls. No voicemail tag.

Front desk staff handle high volume and competing tasks. Calls ring through to voicemail or get transferred and dropped. MedReception answers every new patient call immediately, captures their information, and either books them or flags them for callback. Your practice controls the routing rules; the AI follows them every time.
GI practices need symptom context, prep compliance history, and insurance details. The AI asks the questions you define, captures answers in a structured format, and returns a summary your staff can review and file in seconds. Appointment data and new patient demographics sync directly to your EMR; your team stays in control of clinical documentation.
Every GI practice has different intake needs, referral urgency rules, and EMR workflows. MedReception is built per client during onboarding: your intake questions, your escalation thresholds, your EMR fields. Your team gets white-glove setup and lifetime optimization at no extra cost. Switch EMRs later? Your AI configuration stays with you.
Insurance details and photo ID are captured on the call and returned as a structured summary for your staff to verify and file. They do not auto-populate the chart, so your team has one chance to confirm accuracy before entry. Clinical summaries work the same way: structured, reviewable, and filed by your team, not the AI.

Yes. When a caller books an appointment, MedReception writes the appointment and new patient record (name, DOB, phone) directly to your EMR. Your team can verify and adjust before the patient arrives. Intake details like symptoms and insurance preference are captured on the call and returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and file.
You set the rule. The AI can offer a callback at a specific time, place the caller on a waitlist, or route urgent cases to a provider on-call. Your team then handles the callback or escalation. The caller never waits on hold or hears voicemail.
The AI can acknowledge and log prep questions, procedure history, and urgency flags during intake. For clinical guidance, urgent concerns, or complex cases, your rules determine whether the call escalates to a staff member or provider. The AI does not give medical advice; it captures context and routes appropriately.
Launch takes about one week from signup. Your EMR connection and phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering the number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. During setup, your team defines intake questions, booking rules, and escalation thresholds with our onboarding team.
Katie, our AI receptionist, still answers every call and handles intake. Your staff enters bookings and patient details into your EMR manually, or we can scope a custom integration. Want MedReception integrated with your EHR? Book a demo and we will scope yours.
