Workflow
Confirm fasting, imaging reports, medication holds, and contraindications before procedure day—reducing same-day cancellations and protecting surgical block time.
Interventional pain clinics have fixed procedure slots—cancellations waste chair time and revenue. AI screening confirms readiness (fasting, imaging, medication status) before the patient arrives. Your team knows days in advance which procedures are at risk and can fill open slots or adjust schedules.
Patient interviews and chart review sometimes miss important details—medications started after booking, recent infections, or undisclosed allergies. AI screening asks targeted pre-operative questions and flags concerns for clinical staff review before the patient enters the prep area.
Your clinical staff currently screens readiness at arrival, often discovering missing imaging or patient non-compliance. AI screening accelerates pre-op intake, resolves gaps days before arrival, and gives clinical staff time for documentation review instead of detective work.
Standardized AI screening ensures every patient is asked about fasting, medications, and contraindications—no variation by receptionist or clinic volume. Structured documentation supports your pre-operative safety review and reduces liability exposure.
Readiness verified before arrival
Fasting, imaging, medication hold, and contraindication screening completed days before procedure
Flagged contraindications routed
Clinical staff notified of pregnancy, infection, allergy, or medication concerns before pre-op
Structured screening summary ready
Pre-operative clearance data available for clinical review on procedure day
Patient understanding confirmed
Aftercare instructions and recovery expectations documented and acknowledged
No. The AI screens and documents readiness (fasting, imaging, medication history, contraindications). Your clinical provider reviews the screening summary and makes clearance decisions. The AI accelerates the information-gathering phase.
The record is flagged and immediately routed to your clinical staff. They contact the patient to clarify or schedule a pre-operative consultation. Serious concerns (active infection, new cardiac symptoms) trigger pre-operative hold pending provider review.
Yes. You configure reminder timing (typically 24 hours and 2 hours before procedure). AI calls confirm fasting compliance, transportation readiness, and any last-minute questions—catching patients who need rescheduling or additional clearance.
MedReception integrates with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, TherapyNotes, Accuro, and pMD. Appointment bookings and patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) sync to your EMR. Readiness screening results—fasting status, imaging confirmation, flagged contraindications, and patient acknowledgments—are captured as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary that your clinical staff reviews and files before procedure day.
Same-day cancellations often result from patient non-compliance (ate before fasting procedure, didn't stop blood thinner, forgot imaging was required). AI screening weeks before arrival reminds patients of requirements, confirms understanding, and alerts your team to non-compliance. Reschedules happen before surgery block time is lost.
