Concierge & DPC
Concierge providers often answer phones directly or are interrupted by support staff. An AI receptionist handles initial call handling and triage, capturing member details and routing only clinically relevant calls to providers, freeing chair time and reducing burnout.
Constant phone interruptions fragment provider attention and increase stress. An AI that handles initial call triage means providers can focus on the patient in front of them, not managing a queue of callbacks. Providers return calls on their schedule during designated windows, not constantly interrupted.
Instead of 'Member John Smith called about refill'—which requires you to look up the chart and call back to clarify—the provider receives a structured summary: 'Member John Smith, age 62, called about migraine refill. Reports increased frequency over past week. Last prescription filled 3 months ago. Requesting same medication.' Provider can address the issue in one call.
The AI identifies urgency—chest pain, acute injury, medication allergy—and pages the provider immediately. Routine callbacks—refills, scheduling questions, lab result follow-up—are organized into a queue that the provider returns during designated times. This dramatically reduces perceived urgency and context-switching.
Your support staff is no longer taking voicemails, relaying messages, and managing callback lists. They can focus on check-in, checkout, rooming, and patient-facing support, which directly improves the clinical experience.
Provider phone interruptions eliminated
AI handles initial call; provider receives organized callback list once or twice daily.
Every callback pre-screened and summarized
Provider receives structured summary with reason for call, member context, and any urgent flags before dialing back.
Urgent calls routed immediately to provider
Red-flag symptoms or emergencies bypass callback queue; provider paged on-demand.
Routine calls organized and batched
Refills, scheduling, and lab follow-ups organized into logical callback windows.
The AI is trained on clinical urgency markers: chest pain, shortness of breath, acute injury, loss of consciousness, medication allergy, and other red flags. You set custom urgency rules for your practice. Routine requests—refills, appointment scheduling—go into the callback queue.
Yes. Providers can set preferred callback windows (e.g., 9–10 a.m. and 4–5 p.m.). The AI organizes non-urgent calls into those windows. During clinical hours, the provider focuses on patient care; during callback windows, they address member calls in bulk.
The AI asks if the situation is urgent. If the member confirms urgency, the AI pages the provider immediately with all captured context. If the provider doesn't answer within a set time, escalation rules trigger (backup provider, urgent care referral, etc.).
Both. The AI answers many calls that providers would normally take—appointment booking, prescription refill requests, appointment reminder confirmations. The AI only routes clinically complex or urgent calls to the provider. This dramatically reduces total call volume reaching the provider.
The AI is configured with your on-call provider's contact info and availability. During off-hours, urgent calls are routed to the on-call provider. Routine calls are logged and queued for the next business day. Your on-call provider is only paged for genuine emergencies, reducing sleep interruptions.
