Multi-Specialty Workflow

Route calls by specialty, provider, and availability across multiple Fresno clinic locations

Multi-location, multi-specialty practices route calls intelligently: callers hear a brief menu, the AI triages their need, and calls route to the correct provider or location without staff involvement.

How it pays back

Eliminate inter-clinic call transfers and patient frustration

Callers don't bounce between locations or departments. The AI identifies their need and routes them to the right person on the first try. No 'let me transfer you' or hold time.

Maximize provider and location utilization

Real-time visibility into availability across all sites means the AI can book callers into the first open slot that matches their specialty and insurance—filling gaps and keeping providers' schedules full.

Reduce front-desk staffing by centralizing call intake

One call center or shared intake team handles routing for all locations. Each site's front desk focuses on check-ins and in-room prep, not incoming call volume.

Simplify onboarding and EMR management

New locations and providers plug into the same AI system. Routing rules, intake forms, and EMR integration carry over—no per-location setup required.

Frequently asked questions

How does the AI route calls to the correct specialty or location?

The caller describes their need in their own words. The AI understands context—'I need my shoulder looked at' → orthopedics; 'My child has a fever' → pediatrics; 'I'm in the downtown office' → routes to that location. No menu, no button pressing.

Can the AI see availability across all our locations?

Yes. MedReception pulls real-time availability from your central EMR or linked location schedules. The AI books callers into the first available slot that matches their specialty, provider preference, and insurance.

What if a caller needs an appointment at a specific location?

The caller can request a specific location or provider. The AI honors that preference if availability exists; otherwise, it offers alternatives. Flexible callers are offered the first open slot across all sites.

Do all locations see each other's calls?

No. Each location sees only its own incoming calls and appointments. Referrals between specialties or departments are routed seamlessly, but call logs and patient management remain location-specific.

How does new patient intake work across multiple locations?

The AI captures name, date of birth, phone, and reason for visit once. Demographics are written to your central EMR or synced to the booking location's chart. Intake summary is returned for staff review and filing.

Can we use the same phone number across all locations?

Yes. Many multi-specialty practices route one main number to the AI; the AI then routes by caller need and location. Or each location keeps its own number and routes internally. You control the setup.
