Urology

Your urology practice takes calls during the day. After hours, on lunch, or when all providers are booked, voicemail picks up. MedReception AI answers instead, captures the caller's urgency and provider preference, and books them into the right urologist's schedule on Kareo, or escalates urgent cases to your on-call roster.

MedReception AI replaces voicemail for Kareo urology practices. The AI reads your provider schedules, books new patient and established patient calls into the correct urologist's calendar, handles specialty-specific triage (hematuria, stones, post-op checks), and routes urgent calls to your on-call team. No voicemail tag-backs, no missed patients on Monday morning.

How it pays back

No Voicemail, No Monday Morning Backlog

Front desks field heavy call volume, and missed calls lose new patients. MedReception AI answers every call, captures the caller's name, phone, urgency, and preferred provider, and books them into Kareo on the spot. Your team walks in Monday to a clean schedule, not a stack of voicemail transcripts and scrambled callback notes.

Urology-Specific Triage and Routing

The AI knows to escalate hematuria, acute retention, fever post-procedure, or stone pain to your on-call urologist. Routine refill requests, appointment reschedules, and follow-up questions are captured as structured summaries for your clinical team. Urgent calls trigger your escalation rules; clinicians decide next steps.

Multi-Provider Scheduling Without Staff Coordination

If a caller wants Dr. Smith but he is booked, the AI offers the next available slot with Dr. Smith or another urologist, depending on your rules. New patient records are created with the correct provider assignment. Staff never field a call asking 'which provider should I book this patient with?'

Frequently asked questions

How does the AI know which urologist to book the caller with?

The AI reads all provider schedules from Kareo and asks the caller if they have a preferred urologist or if they are a new patient. If the caller names a provider, the AI books them into that provider's next available slot. If the caller is new or has no preference, the AI follows your routing rules (e.g., 'book with the next available urologist' or 'book with Dr. Smith if available, otherwise Dr. Jones'). Your team controls the rules during setup.

What happens if a call comes in about hematuria or acute retention after hours?

The AI captures the symptom, identifies it as urgent per your triage rules, and escalates the call to your on-call urologist or an urgent care number you provide. The caller is told they will be contacted by the on-call team. A structured summary is logged so your team has a record of the call and the caller's details.

Do new patient records get created automatically in Kareo?

Yes. The AI captures the caller's name, date of birth, phone number, and provider preference, and new patient records are created in Kareo with the correct provider assignment. The caller's intake information (chief complaint, medical history, allergies, and medications) is captured during the call and returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and file into the chart before the appointment. Your team reviews and enters all clinical data.

How long does setup take?

Launch takes about one week from signup. Your Kareo connection and practice phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering your phone number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. Your onboarding team walks you through provider preferences, triage rules, and escalation workflows before the AI goes live.

Can the AI handle Spanish-speaking callers?

Yes. A bilingual line answers in English and Spanish, and callers who speak Spanish get Spanish. Triage and booking work the same way in both languages. Talk to us about adding a language line for your practice.
