Operations
Chesapeake VA practices route after-hours calls to an AI receptionist instead of hiring night staff or paying per-call answering service fees. Urgent calls escalate to providers.
Instead of a patient leaving a message that gets lost or forgotten, the AI captures their name, reason for visit, and callback number. Your staff reviews the queue the next morning and calls them back proactively.
A patient with chest pain, difficulty breathing, or other urgent symptoms is escalated to your pager or mobile phone in seconds. Your provider can address the crisis or direct the patient to the ED.
You don't hire a night receptionist or pay per-call fees to an external answering service. The AI operates on a flat monthly subscription and answers every call, every night.
Calls are sorted by urgency and timestamp. Your staff doesn't dig through disorganized voicemail or guess which calls matter. Priority callbacks are at the top of the list.

After-hours coverage is included in the standard MedReception subscription. The AI answers calls evenings, weekends, and holidays at no additional cost.
You can review pricing at medreception.ai/pricing. The cost structure is a flat monthly subscription. To compare it to your current staffing or answering service costs, you can request a demo and discuss your specific situation.
An answering service takes messages and forwards them to you; MedReception answers the call, captures patient info, schedules appointments, and routes urgent calls to your provider. You get structured intake and direct escalation, not just voicemail transcription.
Yes. You set the on-call provider's pager number, mobile phone, or a staff member's contact info. Urgent calls are routed to whoever you designate. You can rotate coverage weekly or by provider.
After-hours calls are logged and tracked. New patient records and appointments created at 2 AM are timestamped and appear in your EMR just like daytime calls. Your billing team processes them according to your policies.
