Urgent Call Routing
Interventional pain practices in Greensboro handle urgent flare-ups, post-procedure complications, and emergency referrals alongside routine scheduling. MedReception routes every call by the triage rules you set: urgent calls reach your on-call provider or nurse line immediately, routine callbacks are queued, and new patients are captured with full demographics written to your EMR. No call is held or lost.

Your AI receptionist asks the caller about pain level, location, duration, and whether they are a post-op patient or on a controlled substance regimen. Based on your rules, urgent calls are routed to your on-call provider, nurse line, or emergency contact without delay. Routine calls and new patient intake are logged and queued for your team to return. No clinical judgment is made by the AI; your triage rules decide the route.
When a new patient calls, the AI captures their name, date of birth, phone number, and contact preference and writes them directly to your EMR as a new patient record. Your clinical team receives a structured intake summary with chief complaint, pain history, current medications, allergies, and any imaging or referral notes the caller provides. Your staff review and file the summary before the first appointment; no manual data entry, no duplicate records.
Outside business hours, your AI receptionist answers every call, captures the caller's urgency level and clinical details, and routes the call to your on-call provider or emergency number according to your escalation rules. The call is logged and a summary is ready for your team when they return, so no urgent flare-up or post-procedure complication is missed or delayed.
Your triage rules, provider routing, and new patient intake questions are built specifically for your practice during onboarding. If your pain management protocols change, your escalation rules are updated at no extra cost as part of our free lifetime optimization. You own the configuration; if you switch EMRs later, your AI receptionist moves with you.

The AI does not decide. Your practice sets the triage rules during setup: for example, pain level above 7, post-op status, controlled substance requests, or calls from existing patients with a prior emergency flag. The AI asks the caller questions based on your rules and routes the call accordingly. Your clinical team always decides what is urgent; the AI executes your protocol.
Your AI receptionist answers the call, captures the caller's pain level, symptoms, and patient status, and routes the call to your on-call provider or emergency number according to your escalation rules. If your on-call line is busy, the call is logged and a summary is ready for your team when they return. No urgent call is left in voicemail.
New patient demographics (name, DOB, phone, contact method) are written to your EMR as a new patient record. Chief complaint, medications, allergies, pain history, and imaging notes are captured on the call and returned as a structured summary that your staff review and file before the first appointment. Your clinical team always reviews and approves the summary before it becomes part of the chart.
Launch takes about a week from signup. Your EMR connection and practice phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering your number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. Your triage rules and intake questions are configured during onboarding so the AI is ready to route calls on day one.
