Workflow
Fresno practices field heavy call volume after hours. An AI receptionist answers every call, qualifies the patient, routes emergencies, and books appointments into your EMR—no answering service, no voicemail.
Callers who reach voicemail at 10 PM often call a competitor or an urgent care instead. An AI receptionist answers immediately, confirms the appointment time, and books it into your system.
Your team is not on-call for phone triage every night. The AI handles initial screening and routing; critical calls go to your provider. Staff are paged only when necessary.
The AI recognizes chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe bleeding, and other red flags. It transfers immediately to an on-call provider or directs the caller to 911.
Overnight summaries show which calls were answered, who was booked, and which patients need follow-up. No scrambling to figure out why patients didn't show.

You set up provider on-call schedules in the system. When the AI detects a red-flag symptom, it either transfers the call directly to the on-call provider's cell phone or directs the patient to dial 911, depending on your protocol.
The AI asks for availability preferences and books the appointment into your EMR in real time. Your staff arrives to find the appointment already in the schedule and the patient's info (name, DOB, phone, reason for visit) already captured.
Yes. The system can be configured to handle Spanish and other languages common in Fresno. Multilingual support helps you serve a broader patient population.
No. The AI receptionist replaces your answering service entirely. Calls route directly to the AI, which handles intake, triage, and escalation. You eliminate the middleman and the cost.
You can update schedules in the MedReception dashboard. Changes take effect immediately. No waiting for a service representative to reprogram your system.
Yes. The system integrates with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, AdvancedMD, and ModMed. If your clinic uses one of these, appointments and new patient demographics sync automatically. For other EMRs, the AI captures and returns structured summaries for your team to review and file.
