After-Hours Coverage
AI-powered after-hours answering routes urgent cases to on-call providers, books appointments for the next day, and captures intake for continuity of care. No voicemail, no missed emergencies.
Every after-hours call is answered live by AI and triaged immediately. Urgent cases wake the on-call provider with full patient context in seconds.
Patients reach help after hours instead of hanging up or going to the ER. AI recognizes danger signs and routes them appropriately.
Routine after-hours calls get booked into the next available slot. Patient arrives with intake already captured; morning staff has full context.
On-call providers receive calls only when truly urgent. Routine messages are captured and reviewed in the morning without disruption.

The system retries according to your escalation protocol. You can configure fallback numbers (partner, secondary provider, hospital) and alert sequences to ensure critical calls reach someone.
