Frequently asked questions

Is an AI receptionist HIPAA-compliant, or do I need to add extra security?

MedReception is built HIPAA-compliant. Calls are encrypted, data is secured, and we have a BAA in place. Your practice uses it as-is; no extra infrastructure needed.

What data does the AI capture, and where is it stored?

The AI captures name, date of birth, phone, insurance, medical history, and reason for visit during the call. Data is stored in encrypted, HIPAA-compliant servers. You control retention policies.

If my Fresno practice gets audited, what documentation do I need?

You'll have the Business Associate Agreement, audit logs showing who accessed what data and when, encryption certificates, and our security assessment reports. We provide documentation to support your compliance.

What if there's a data breach? What's your responsibility?

The BAA specifies our obligations—notification, investigation, and remediation. We notify you immediately and work with your privacy officer to comply with breach notification rules.

Can I control how long call recordings are kept?

Yes. You set retention policies in your account—calls can be purged weekly, monthly, or per your privacy policy. We don't retain data longer than you allow.
