Workflow
Small Fresno practices face a dilemma: hire a dedicated receptionist or lose calls. AI receptionist answers every phone, books appointments, and captures patient details—without new staff.
AI receptionist answers every call day and night. Your team only pays for what you use, with no salary, payroll tax, vacation, or benefits. Scaling up is instant—no hiring delays.
Frontdesk doesn't spend half their day on phones. They check patients in, handle billing, coordinate prior auth, and build relationships. Phones are handled in the background.
Caller tells the AI their name, DOB, insurance carrier, and reason for visit. Demographics and appointment data are captured and returned as a structured summary for staff to review and file into your EMR. Chart is ready when they arrive.
No surprise payroll or turnover costs. Usage is metered and billed per call or month. Scale down if volume drops; scale up if your practice grows.
Appointment and patient demographics captured on call-one
Named EMR integrations write appointments and demographics; all intake summaries structured and EMR-pasteable
Instant scaling during surge hours
Peak demand handled without overtime or part-time hires
Works with any phone system
8x8, Vonage, local carriers, or standard lines
For call answering and appointment booking, yes. The AI handles inbound volume, captures intake, and routes urgency. Your staff still handles check-in, billing, clinical coordination, and complex prior auth. Many small practices find they need less front desk time because calls are pre-filtered and pre-booked.
The AI can handle multiple providers, part-time schedules, floating holidays, and location rotation. You configure your real availability in your EMR; the AI books only open slots. It also asks provider preference and books accordingly.
Yes. After-hours, the AI can take messages, offer urgent-care referrals, or transfer to your on-call provider if you set up call routing. Emergency keywords (chest pain, severe injury, suicidal ideation) trigger immediate escalation.
Setup is typically 2–3 days. We integrate with your EMR, configure your phone line, set your availability and call flow, and test. No hardware installation needed.
Yes. You provide clinical background, insurance carriers, referral protocols, and common questions. The AI learns your practice's tone and workflows. Configuration is ongoing—you can adjust after each week.
