Insurance & Eligibility
AI receptionist collects insurance details during appointment scheduling, capturing card info and member data for your staff to verify eligibility immediately—not at check-in.
Your front desk has insurance data in hand the moment the call ends. Check eligibility while the patient is still on the line, or before they arrive at the office.
Patient already confirmed coverage, member ID, and deductible status during the booking call. Check-in is faster and focused on arrival logistics.
Insurance details collected at appointment time reflect current coverage. Reduces mid-visit surprises and billing disputes later.
Insurance card photos are uploaded to the MedReception portal for your billing and front desk team to download and file. No separate forms or emails needed.

The AI asks the patient to read their insurance card details aloud: member ID, group number, plan name, and subscriber DOB. Patients can also upload a photo of their card in the MedReception patient portal during or after the call.
Insurance details are captured and stored in the MedReception portal for your staff to access and verify. Your billing team downloads the card image and enters eligibility data into your billing system or EHR as needed. Appointment bookings and patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) do write to the EMR; insurance information is kept in the portal for staff review and manual entry.
The AI notes that insurance was not provided and flags the appointment for your front desk to collect at check-in. The appointment still books, and staff follow up with a reminder email or text with a link to upload card details.
Yes. The AI adjusts its intake based on insurance type. For Medicare and Medicaid, it collects member ID and plan details. For self-pay, it notes that and alerts your billing team for payment arrangement discussion.
Your front desk or billing team. They use the member ID and plan details provided by the AI to check eligibility through your insurance verification system or by phone with the insurance company.
