Workflow
New patients call, the AI collects full intake (demographics, medical history, insurance questions), creates a patient record in your EMR, and books the appointment—all without transferring to staff or sending follow-up forms.
No back-and-forth calls, no emailed forms, no waiting for patient replies. New patient ready for appointment in one conversation.
Clinical staff review intake data and medical history before the patient arrives. Provider can focus on care, not intake questions.
Confirmed appointment, clear pre-visit instructions, and a warm handoff experience build confidence and reduce cancellations.
New patients experience a smooth, organized onboarding. They feel welcomed and prepared—not asked to repeat themselves at check-in.

The AI captures what the caller provides and flags incomplete sections in the summary sent to staff. Your team can follow up via phone or patient portal before the appointment if critical information is missing.
The AI asks for insurance information during the call and returns it as structured text for staff review. Your staff verify coverage and eligibility using your normal workflow—this is not automated to avoid claim denials from incorrect data entry.
Yes. The AI can route new patient calls to the correct provider queue and note their provider preference in the appointment and intake summary.
The AI can send a secure portal link during or after the call for the patient to upload documents. The link includes the intake summary for the patient to verify accuracy before submission.
