Front Desk Coverage

Every new patient call answered and booked, no hold, no callback, no missed inquiry

Your front desk phones ring constantly. MedReception AI answers every call instantly, captures new patient details, qualifies the visit reason, and books the appointment directly into your EMR. Staff review and confirm; you control the workflow. Nights, weekends, and overflow, covered.

How it pays back

Convert Every Inquiry Into a Booked Slot

Front desks field heavy call volume. When your team is full or after hours close, callers hang up. MedReception AI picks up every call, qualifies the new patient, and books them into your open slots, all before your staff even hears the phone ring. No more "call back Monday" or lost cosmetic procedure leads.

Structured Intake Tailored to Dermatology

The AI asks about skin concern, location, duration, and whether the visit is medical or cosmetic. It captures chief complaint and urgency signals (rash spreading, severe itch, suspected skin cancer concern) and flags them in the summary your provider sees. Your staff never manually re-ask the same questions.

Appointment Writes Directly to Your EMR

New patient name, date of birth, phone, and the booked appointment slot sync to athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, or Nextech. No manual entry. Your schedule is live and your team sees the confirmed booking right away.

Your Rules, Your Control

You set which providers accept which visit types, how many slots are available, and which calls get escalated to staff immediately. The AI follows your logic every time. You own the qualification rules and can adjust them anytime, no code, no vendor wait.

Custom-Built Workflow and Lifetime Edits

MedReception builds your intake workflow custom to your practice, not a plug-and-play template. Your team gets white-glove onboarding and a real specialist, and every edit and optimization is free for life. Launch takes about one week from signup; the EMR connection and phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI actually book the appointment, or just collect information?

The AI books the appointment into your EMR directly if the slot is available and matches your rules. Your staff see the confirmed booking and can call the patient to confirm details if your practice prefers. The appointment is never lost in a callback queue.

What happens if a caller asks about a specific provider or procedure?

You set up routing rules. The AI can ask which provider the patient prefers, filter by procedure type (e.g., Mohs, cosmetic laser, medical consultation), and route accordingly. If the caller's need doesn't match available slots, the AI offers alternatives or escalates to your staff.

How does the AI handle urgent calls, like a patient worried about skin cancer?

You define urgency flags. The AI listens for keywords (rapid change, bleeding, suspected melanoma, severe itch) and marks the call summary with an urgency tag. Your staff and provider see it immediately and can prioritize the appointment or call the patient back the same day. The AI never makes a clinical decision; it routes and escalates by your rules.

What if we use an EMR that MedReception doesn't integrate with?

Katie, the AI, still answers every call, handles intake, and books the appointment. Your staff enter the booking into your EMR manually, but the structured call summary is ready for them, no re-asking. Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your EHR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours.

How much does this cost?

Plans include a monthly block of minutes, then a per-minute rate after that. There is no setup fee. After your first three months, we offer a reduced-cost annual plan priced on your actual usage. Talk to our team about your practice size and call volume; we will scope the right plan for you.
