Concierge & DPC
Concierge members expect on-call access. AI reception triages after-hours calls, escalates acute issues to your physician, and captures routine requests so your team handles them first thing.
On-call access is a core concierge value proposition. AI reception ensures calls connect to care, not disappear. Members know their practice is always available.
AI captures member name, insurance, recent visit reason, current medications, and complaint before the call is escalated. Physician answers informed and can triage faster.
Only true emergencies page the on-call physician. Routine requests are logged for morning—fewer false alarms, less fatigue, more physician focus on true urgent cases.
Overnight request summaries queued and ready to action. No lost notes, no callbacks to figure out what the member wanted.

You set triage rules by chief complaint and symptom severity. Red flags (chest pain, shortness of breath, uncontrolled bleeding, severe allergic reaction) trigger immediate physician notification. Routine requests (prescription refill, appointment reschedule, lab result status) are logged for morning staff.
The AI escalates to backup on-call provider or backup phone tree you define. It retries and escalates based on your protocol, ensuring no acute call goes unanswered.
