AI receptionist that answers phones around the clock while your Kareo appointments and patient records stay current without weekend staff

Katie AI covers your phones before, after, and during office hours—nights, weekends, holidays—booking routine appointments into Kareo and escalating urgent cases to on-call staff.

How it pays back

Stop losing callers to voicemail

Every caller—whether they reach you at 2 a.m. or 2 p.m.—gets a live conversation with Katie. Missed calls and lost revenue end.

Your staff works office hours; Katie works all hours

No overtime, no rotating on-call receptionists, no burnout. Katie handles every after-hours call volume the same way your team would—with professionalism.

Kareo stays current overnight

Appointments booked at midnight appear in your Kareo schedule. You start work Monday to a full, accurate calendar. No manual updates, no reconciliation.

On-call provider has context

When a caller needs urgent help, Katie looks up their Kareo record and briefs the on-call doctor before the call transfers. The provider is prepared, not blindsided.

You own the message queue, not a voicemail box

If a caller wants to leave a message for clinical staff, Katie records it and delivers it as a structured summary. Your team reviews messages in a dashboard, not buried in voicemail.

Frequently asked questions

If Katie books an appointment at 3 a.m., does it go into Kareo right away?

Yes. The appointment is written to Kareo instantly and appears in your schedule. When you arrive at the office, the booking is already there.

What if a caller wants to speak to a human after-hours?

Katie can escalate to your on-call provider if the caller is sick or urgent. For administrative questions, Katie can offer to take a message and have your office call back first thing in the morning.

Can Katie handle after-hours cancellations and reschedules?

Yes. Katie can look up the caller's existing Kareo appointment, confirm identity, process the cancellation, and offer new time slots. Kareo is updated automatically.

Does Katie work on holidays and weekends?

Yes. Katie never takes time off. You can configure her to apply different routing rules on holidays (e.g., all calls escalate to on-call rather than being booked) if desired.

What if your internet goes down or Katie's service is interrupted?

MedReception maintains redundant systems and a published backup number that your callers can use if needed. We also provide a detailed SLA and incident response plan.
