Patient Onboarding
Fresno practices collect complete new patient intake data during the initial phone call. Callers answer a few short questions, confirm their appointment, and your staff receives a structured summary ready for the EMR.
A patient calls for an appointment but hangs up without answering insurance questions. Your staff calls back the next day to complete intake. Meanwhile, the appointment slot sits uncertain. AI completes the intake on the original call—one call, all data, appointment confirmed.
New patients usually arrive 15 minutes early to fill out a clipboard: demographics, insurance, health history. By the time they start, 15 minutes of your reception schedule is consumed. With AI intake, patients arrive and check in immediately. Staff scan their ID, confirm insurance, and hand them to clinical.
A patient walks back with nothing but a chief complaint. The nurse spends 10 minutes asking demographics and insurance questions that should have been done on the phone. With AI intake, clinical staff open the chart and see name, DOB, insurance, symptoms, and reason for visit—ready to room immediately.
AI-captured appointment bookings and demographics (name, DOB, phone) write directly to your EMR. Medical history, symptoms, and insurance details are returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and file. No manual entry, no data-entry errors.
Structured intake captured
Name, DOB, phone, email, insurance carrier, symptoms, and visit reason—all on the first call
New patient records created
AI writes appointment bookings and demographics to your EMR; existing patients are recognized and routed accordingly
No callback loop
Complete patient data collected in real time—staff focus on clinical care, not follow-up calls
Check-in simplified
Patients arrive with full intake already in the chart; check-in is scan ID and confirm insurance
The AI collects basic intake: name, date of birth, phone, email, insurance carrier, and chief complaint (reason for visit). Medical history details (medications, allergies, surgeries) are captured as a summary from the call and returned for your staff to review and file in the patient record. Clinical staff or the provider complete those details.
The AI handles all scenarios gracefully. If a patient is uninsured, that's noted in the record. If they prefer not to provide insurance on the call, the AI flags it for your billing staff to follow up. No call fails due to insurance questions—the appointment is still confirmed.
Yes. The AI can ask these questions and capture answers as structured summaries. However, clinical staff review and verify allergies and medications before the patient is roomed. The AI surfaces the data; your team validates it for patient safety.
No. The AI checks your EMR for existing records by name and date of birth. If a match is found, the caller is recognized as an existing patient and the call flow adjusts (schedule follow-up, not new patient intake). If no match is found, a new record is created. Your EMR rules control the merge logic.
Typically 2-3 minutes. The AI asks the most common questions in a natural, conversational way. Patients don't fill out a clipboard or repeat information—they answer verbally and move on. Fast for the caller, complete for your staff.
