After-Hours Answering
Fresno dermatology practices lose calls the moment the front desk closes. Annie, MedReception's after-hours AI receptionist, answers every call 24/7, qualifies cosmetic and medical skin concerns, books appointments into your EMR, and escalates urgent cases by your rules. No voicemail dead ends. Patients get answers and appointments scheduled before they hang up.
Front desks close at 5 PM, but dermatology calls don't stop. Annie answers every after-hours call, evening, weekend, and holiday. Callers reach a real intake process, not a voicemail box. Cosmetic consultations, urgent rashes, and follow-up questions get answered and booked the same night.
Annie qualifies whether a caller is asking about a cosmetic procedure, a medical skin condition, or an urgent concern. She captures the chief complaint, affected area, and patient history in a structured summary. Your staff reviews the notes and decides next steps. Urgent cases are flagged and escalated by your rules, not by AI guessing.
When a caller is ready to book, Annie checks your calendar and confirms the appointment. The booking writes to your EMR along with the patient's name, date of birth, and phone number. Repeat callers are recognized, and rescheduling or callback requests are logged for your team. No manual data entry, no double-booking.
Every dermatology practice in Fresno has different hours, providers, and urgency rules. MedReception builds Annie's intake and routing rules around your workflow. Your team gets white-glove onboarding and a real support team. FREE LIFETIME edits and optimization are included. If you switch EMRs later, Annie comes with you.

Your team decides what counts as urgent; Annie routes and alerts
Annie asks open-ended questions about the caller's concern, location, and history. She captures whether the caller is asking about a procedure (Botox, fillers, laser), a medical condition (acne, eczema, psoriasis), or a skin check. The structured summary goes to your staff, who review the details and route the caller to the right provider. Annie doesn't make clinical decisions; your team does.
Yes. If your Fresno practice has multiple dermatologists or satellite offices, Annie checks availability across all calendars. She routes based on provider specialty, availability, and caller preference. Bookings write to your EMR, and your team can see which provider and location the patient chose.
Annie answers the same way every time. If the caller is a returning patient, Annie recognizes them, pulls up their history, and handles rescheduling or follow-up questions. If they're new, she runs through intake again. Either way, the call is logged, and your team has a summary waiting when you open Monday morning.
MedReception integrates directly with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, and Nextech. If your practice uses a different EMR, custom integration is available; book a demo and we will scope yours. Either way, Annie answers every call and your staff can enter bookings manually if needed.
Yes. MedReception is HIPAA compliant, verified by Compliancy Group, and signs a BAA with every US practice. Calls and intake data are handled securely inside MedReception's infrastructure. Your appointment data syncs to your EMR over a secure connection.
