Concierge Medicine
Concierge practices live on continuity. A week away should not mean a week of missed member calls or a covering colleague buried in overflow. MedReception switches to your cross-coverage protocol on the dates you set, routes urgent calls to your covering clinician, and queues routine work for your return. Your members hear exactly who is covering and when you are back.

Concierge members pay for access. When you are away, they expect to reach someone. MedReception answers every call during your vacation window, routes urgent cases to your covering arrangement, and tells members exactly when you return. No voicemail loops, no frustration.
Routine requests, refill questions, form completions, appointment reschedules, queue for your return instead of landing on your covering physician. Urgent calls go to them. Routine work does not. Your covering arrangement stays manageable.
You define the coverage dates, write the member-facing message, and choose where urgent calls route. MedReception executes exactly what you configured. When you return, the system switches back automatically.
Every call answered
No missed member calls during your vacation window
Urgent calls escalated

Complete log of all calls and outcomes ready on day one back
You set the coverage dates during setup. MedReception switches to your vacation protocol on the start date and returns to normal operation on your return date. No staff action required.
A greeting you approve that states who is covering, what they handle, and when you return. For example: 'Dr. Smith is away until March 15. Dr. Jones is covering urgent care. Routine requests will be handled when Dr. Smith returns.' Members know exactly what to expect.
Yes. You define the routing: a named colleague, a cross-covering group, a formal on-call service you already use, or even a combination. MedReception routes exactly as you specify.
They queue in a structured summary for your return. Your covering clinician is not burdened with routine work. Urgent calls go to them; everything else waits for you.
A complete, searchable log of every call, request, and outcome from your vacation window. No voicemail excavation. Just a list ready to work through.
