Growth
New patient inquiry calls are your practice's highest-value inbound traffic — and the easiest to lose when the phone is busy or after-hours. MedReception answers, qualifies, and books new patients in real time, so you never miss a growth opportunity.
A prospective patient calling your Fresno practice is in active decision mode. If they hit voicemail, they call your competitors. MedReception answers immediately, confirms your availability, and locks in the appointment while they're on the phone.
New patients are added to your patient database during the booking call — name, DOB, and contact info synced to your EMR. Your front desk spends less time on intake paperwork on visit day and more time on verification and relationship-building.
The AI asks standardized questions about insurance, pharmacy, previous providers, and appointment preferences. This information is structured and ready for your staff to review and file, eliminating back-and-forth calls and delays.
You can handle significantly more new patient inquiry calls with the same front-desk staff size. AI booking scales your capacity; your team focuses on insurance verification, prior auth, and patient experience.

Reminders reduce no-shows and boost attendance
When a new patient calls, the AI greets them, asks for their name and reason for visit, confirms they're new to the practice, and searches your EMR to ensure they're not already in your system. Then it checks your real-time availability, offers the next available appointment, and books it. The patient record is created in your EMR with contact info and chief complaint immediately.
The AI captures their insurance details — carrier name, member ID, group number — and adds them to the appointment notes. Your staff verifies coverage and checks for prior auth requirements before the patient's visit. The caller is assured that verification is in progress and you'll follow up if needed.
Yes. After booking, the AI can send an SMS or email with a confirmation, directions to your clinic, parking info, and a link to pre-visit questionnaire or intake forms. Patients complete forms before arrival, so check-in is faster and your staff can focus on verification questions.
Yes. The AI booking data syncs to your EMR. You can also configure automated follow-ups — appointment reminders at 48 hours and 24 hours, thank-you messages after the visit, and requests for patient reviews. All integration happens through your EMR or via our API.
The MedReception dashboard shows the number of new patient calls answered, booked, and transferred. You can compare week-over-week or month-over-month new patient appointment volume and track which appointment types and referral sources are driving growth. This data is also available in your EMR reporting.
