Workflow

Concierge practices spend hours on new-member paperwork; AI capture and EHR sync eliminate the backlog

New concierge members call to schedule their first visit. Traditional intake (forms, voicemail follow-ups, manual data entry) delays onboarding. AI reception captures demographics, health history, and insurance on the first call, then syncs demographic data to your EHR—no re-keying, no back-and-forth.

How it pays back

New members onboard faster

From first call to scheduled appointment, the entire intake happens in one conversation. No forms to chase, no voicemail tag, no delays. Members feel welcomed and valued on day one.

Clinical staff see a complete, structured summary

Before the member walks in, your clinician has access to their demographics and a structured summary of stated health conditions, current medications, allergies, and reason for joining the practice. Clinical time is more efficient because the context is already there.

Billing gets clean insurance data upfront

Insurance details captured during the call are handed to your billing team immediately. No re-calling the member for insurance card information after the visit; everything is documented and ready.

Reduces front-desk workload on day one

Check-in on the first appointment is fast because demographics are already in the system. Your front desk can focus on greeting the member warmly instead of re-entering data.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI ask about medical history on the first call?

Yes. The AI asks about the member's chief reason for joining, current health conditions, active medications, allergies, and any recent surgeries or hospitalizations. This is captured as a structured summary and returned to your team for clinical review and filing—so the member doesn't have to repeat it at check-in.

What happens with the health history information?

The health history and any other clinical details are captured during the call and returned as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary. Your clinical staff (nurse or clinician) review the summary, add it to the chart or encounter note per your workflow, and ensure accuracy. The AI does not author the clinical record—your team does.

Can the AI verify insurance during the intake call?

Yes. The AI captures insurance member ID, group number, and plan details. This can be handed to your billing team for verification with the payer before or after the member's first visit. Insurance information is captured and provided to your billing team for their system; clinical staff review and file it per your workflow.

What if a new member has questions the AI can't answer?

If the member asks about specific treatments, physician credentials, or other complex questions, the AI routes them to a staff member or offers to have someone call back. The new-member data is preserved in the system, so when staff calls back, they have full context.

Does this work with our existing EHR?

Yes. The AI integrates with named EHRs including athenahealth, AdvancedMD, Elation Health, eClinicalWorks, Epic, and others. Demographic data (name, DOB, phone, contact method) and appointment bookings sync automatically. Your clinical staff then review and file the health history summary per your standard workflow.
