Call Routing & Triage
Calls to your CallSara line are screened by AI, which escalates true emergencies and urgent symptoms to on-call clinical staff in real time.
Dangerous calls (chest pain, altered mental status, suicidal ideation, severe bleeding) are flagged and escalated within seconds. No voicemail, no queue, no delay.
Escalation message includes patient name, symptoms, and context — they know what they're answering before picking up.
Early triage and direct contact with clinical staff supports appropriate routing and keeps acuity-matched care.
Only true urgent calls reach your team. Routine refill requests and appointment calls are handled by AI, reducing false alarms.

The AI is configured with your clinical escalation criteria (e.g., chest pain, difficulty breathing, uncontrolled bleeding, suicidal ideation, altered consciousness). If the caller reports these or similar severity signals, the call escalates. You can customize the trigger phrases and rules.
The system can retry the on-call number, page a backup provider, or attempt to reach an answering service or ER — depending on your configured failover rules.
