Your front desk books complex cases; AI handles routine appointments and confirmations

Free your team from repetitive scheduling calls. AI receptionist books routine appointments into Kareo and confirms existing bookings, so your staff focus on special requests and care coordination.

How it pays back

Focused Staff Attention

Your team isn't answering repetitive calls asking 'what time can I come in?' They handle prior auths, coverage concerns, and clinical questions—work that actually needs a human.

Peak Hour Relief

When morning calls hit, AI answers routine volume immediately. Your staff focus on the calls that need negotiation, expertise, or empathy.

Fewer No-Shows

Frequently asked questions

Can the AI handle complex scheduling scenarios?

The AI handles standard scenarios: 'I'd like an appointment in 2 weeks' or 'I need to reschedule my 3 PM slot.' For complex cases—insurance coverage, referral requirements, or multi-appointment sequences—the AI escalates to your staff.

What if a patient wants to speak to a scheduler?

Patients can always ask to speak to a staff member. The AI recognizes this and transfers the call. Most callers don't ask—they're satisfied with AI booking.

Does the AI confirm appointments automatically?

Yes. The AI can send SMS or phone confirmations 24 hours before the appointment. If the patient confirms or cancels, Kareo is updated instantly.

Can I see which calls were AI vs. staff?

Yes. Call logs and metrics are available in your dashboard or Kareo reporting. You can track call volume, booking success rate, and escalation reasons.

What about patients who don't have a confirmed appointment time?

If no slots are available, the AI can add the patient to a waitlist in Kareo, offer alternative providers, or suggest a callback time. Your staff can follow up when slots open.
