Neurology

Your neurology on-call provider shouldn't answer the front desk. Let AI handle weekend calls.

Neurology practices in Fresno lose weekend calls to voicemail or force physicians to answer routine scheduling and refill questions. MedReception's AI answers every weekend call, captures the patient's neurological history and current symptoms, escalates true emergencies to your on-call neurologist within seconds, and queues routine intake for Monday morning. Your provider focuses on clinical decisions; the AI handles the phone.

How it pays back

On-Call Physicians Stay Clinical

Your neurologist's weekend job is to make clinical decisions, not answer "what time are you open Monday?" The AI triages by urgency rules you set, escalates true emergencies, and handles appointment requests, refill status checks, and billing questions. Your provider receives only calls that need a clinical judgment.

Neurology-Specific Intake in One Call

The AI asks about symptom onset, duration, prior episodes, current medications, allergies, and imaging history. It captures the context your neurologist needs to decide whether to call back or wait for Monday clinic. Summaries are structured and EMR-pasteable, so your staff spends seconds reviewing and filing, not minutes transcribing.

No Setup Fees, Lifetime Edits, EMR-Portable

Launch takes about one week from signup; your EHR connection and phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Plans include a monthly minute block, then a per-minute rate after. You get free lifetime edits and optimization, change escalation rules, triage logic, or intake questions anytime. If you switch EMRs later, your AI comes with you.

Frequently asked questions

How does the AI know when to escalate a call to my on-call neurologist?

You set the escalation rules during onboarding. Common triggers for neurology include sudden weakness, severe headache, loss of consciousness, medication side effects, or patient-reported emergency. The AI follows your rules and alerts your provider via SMS and phone call with the patient's context. Your neurologist always decides whether to call back or wait for Monday.

What happens if a patient calls about a medication refill on Saturday?

The AI captures the medication name, current dose, pharmacy details, and reason for refill. It asks whether the patient has had side effects or changes in symptoms. The summary is queued for your Monday morning team to review and process. If the patient reports an urgent side effect, the AI escalates to your on-call provider.

Does the AI write clinical notes to my EMR?

No. The AI captures patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) and appointment requests, which sync to your EMR. Structured summaries of the patient's reported symptoms, medications, allergies, and chief complaint are returned as EMR-pasteable text for your staff to review and file, your neurologist and staff remain in control of the chart. Appointment bookings and new patient records do sync to your EMR automatically.

Can the AI handle calls in Spanish?

Yes. MedReception speaks 59 languages and handles booking end to end in English, Spanish and Korean. A bilingual line answers in English and Spanish. The AI does not translate or switch languages mid-call; callers stay on the same line.

What if we use an EMR that's not on your list?

Katie, the AI, still answers every call, captures intake, and handles appointment requests. Your staff enters bookings into your EMR manually. Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your EHR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours.
