Workflow
Referral calls from other providers, clinics, and emergency departments are your revenue lifeline. A missed referral call goes to a competitor. An AI receptionist answers every call, identifies the referring source, and captures all details needed to speed consult scheduling and reduce intake delays.
When referring providers call and get a live, knowledgeable voice (AI) in seconds, they gain confidence in your practice. Dropped referral calls or slow callbacks train referral sources to send patients elsewhere.
All referral details—source, diagnosis, imaging, patient contact, insurance—are captured on the call and logged. Your intake team receives a complete, structured summary, not scattered notes or missing information.
Referral callers want to know: Can you see them? When? Your AI checks real-time availability and confirms slots on the spot, removing scheduling friction and increasing show-up rates.
Your providers receive pre-filled patient intake (pain history, medications, prior imaging, referral reason) so they can focus on clinical assessment rather than chart hunting or asking the patient the same questions twice.
Over time, you see which providers, facilities, and regions are sending the most referrals. This data drives marketing, lunch-and-learns, and relationship-building with your top sources.

The AI asks the referring provider's name, clinic or facility, and the patient's name and date of birth. It can cross-check against a list of your known referral sources and flag unusual patterns. Complex or high-value referrals can be routed to your clinical team for verbal verification.
The AI can answer basic questions about your practice (providers, procedures offered, wait times, insurance accepted). Complex clinical discussions are escalated to your provider or clinical director for a callback.
The AI takes the referral details and offers to schedule a direct callback from your provider or clinical team within a specified timeframe. Urgent or complex cases are escalated immediately. Your provider can also call back on a schedule that works for your practice.
The referral call typically specifies the procedure or pain location (lumbar epidural, facet joint injection, SI joint injection, etc.). The AI asks clarifying questions and confirms the procedure type before booking into your schedule.
The AI captures all referral details and returns them as a structured summary that your intake team reviews and files into the patient chart. For existing patients, appointment bookings and updated contact or demographics are synced to your EHR; clinical details are provided as a summary for staff review.
