After-Hours
Use CallSara and MedReception AI together to answer after-hours calls, triage emergencies, collect patient details, and route urgent cases to on-call providers without a dedicated night-shift receptionist.
Eliminate night-shift receptionists or on-call receptionist fees. The AI answers every after-hours call and filters true emergencies from routine inquiries.
Urgent symptoms are detected and routed to your on-call physician or 911 immediately—not languished in a voicemail box.
Your staff arrives to a structured summary of all after-hours calls: scheduled appointments, urgent referrals, and patient callbacks with full context.
Call history, voicemail-to-summary conversions, and routing rules integrate seamlessly with your existing CallSara phone environment.

Yes. The AI can schedule the next available appointment in your calendar and confirm with the patient. Appointment details are written to your EMR and CallSara's call log at the same time.
If the call is urgent or the patient requests transfer, the AI can warm-transfer to your on-call provider via CallSara routing, or provide clear instructions for the ED if it's a true emergency.
All calls are recorded, transcribed, and returned as a structured summary (patient name, reason, context) ready for your staff to review and file into the chart on the next business day.
Yes. CallSara routing, call forwarding, and voicemail settings remain in place. The AI layer answers calls before they hit voicemail and hands off to your on-call team using CallSara's transfer settings.
