Governance
Interventional pain practices are subject to HIPAA and often handle controlled substances, insurance pre-authorizations, and sensitive medical information. MedReception provides encrypted call recording, audit trails, and compliant data handling to meet regulatory requirements and support quality assurance.
HIPAA, state privacy laws, and medical board regulations all apply to phone intake. MedReception handles encryption, access control, retention, and auditing automatically—your practice stays compliant without manual workarounds.
Call recordings and transcripts enable your clinical staff to review how intake was conducted, listen for missed clinical signals, and improve protocols. Quality assurance is auditable and defensible.
Secure recording and timestamped transcripts protect your practice if a patient disputes what was said, promised, or scheduled. Compliant records support medical-legal review and reduce liability exposure.
Supervisors can listen to calls anonymously or by staff member to ensure protocols are being followed—escalation, clinical appropriateness, patient communication tone. This supports staff development and regulatory readiness.
Encryption, access controls, and audit trails reduce the risk of unauthorized access or data loss. If a breach occurs, MedReception's documentation helps you meet notification and reporting requirements quickly.

A Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is a legal contract between your practice and MedReception that establishes how patient data is handled, protected, and used. It ensures MedReception meets HIPAA requirements as a third-party service provider. This is required for any vendor that handles PHI (Protected Health Information).
Yes. All calls are recorded with patient consent (disclosed at the start of the call) and encrypted using industry-standard protocols both during transmission and while stored. Encryption keys are managed securely and access to recordings is restricted to authorized staff.
Your practice sets role-based permissions. Typically, clinical staff, supervisors, and compliance staff can access full recordings. Schedulers and billing staff can access de-identified transcripts (names, dates of birth, and medical details removed). Audit logs show who accessed what and when.
You set your own retention policy. MedReception typically recommends 3–7 years to align with medical records retention requirements and statute of limitations for malpractice claims. After the retention period, calls are automatically deleted.
The AI discloses recording at the start of every call. If a patient refuses, the call can be escalated to a live staff member, transferred to a confidential voicemail, or the patient can call back during business hours to speak with staff. Refusals are logged for compliance purposes.
When a patient or attorney requests their call recording or transcript, MedReception provides a secure download link or delivers the file directly to your practice. Your legal or compliance team can then review and redact as needed before release. The system supports compliance with HIPAA Access Request requirements.
