Allergy Practices
Allergy practices field weekend calls from patients with acute symptoms, medication questions, and urgent appointment needs. MedReception's AI receptionist answers every call 24/7, triages by urgency, captures structured intake, books directly into your Kareo calendar, and escalates emergencies. Your team returns Monday to a clean queue of confirmed appointments and actionable summaries, not a voicemail graveyard.

Patients call Saturday with hive flares, new medication side effects, and appointment needs. MedReception answers each call, captures what triggered the symptoms and what they've tried, books available slots into Kareo, and sends the patient a text confirmation. Your team starts Monday with a clean queue of booked appointments and structured summaries ready to review, not 20 unclear voicemail messages.
Your practice sets the rules: if a caller reports anaphylaxis history, severe swelling, or breathing difficulty, the AI routes the call to your on-call allergist or nurse. Routine questions and appointment requests are captured and booked. You stay in control of what constitutes urgent and who receives it.
The AI books appointments directly into your Kareo calendar as the patient confirms on the call. New patient demographics (name, date of birth, phone number) sync to Kareo. Your team sees the appointment on the schedule immediately, and the patient receives an SMS or email confirmation with date, time, and location. No manual data entry, no double-booking, no lost requests.
Intake captures onset, triggers, current treatments, previous allergies, and reaction severity as a structured summary. Your staff review it, decide what belongs in the chart, and file it. The AI does not write clinical notes or make treatment decisions; it gathers and organizes so your team can act fast.
MedReception is custom-built for your allergy practice but independent of your EMR. If your practice switches from Kareo to another system, your AI receptionist stays with you. No rebuild, no re-setup, no lost configuration. That independence is built into every integration.

Named EMR integrations
Kareo, athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, and others: appointments and new patient data sync automatically
Your practice sets the escalation rules. If the AI detects keywords you've flagged (anaphylaxis, severe swelling, breathing difficulty), the call routes immediately to your on-call allergist or nurse. The patient is not put on hold; they hear the escalation happen. Routine allergy questions and appointment requests are captured and booked into Kareo for your team to handle Monday morning.
No. The AI answers the call, asks allergy-focused questions (symptom onset, current medications, reaction severity, previous treatments), and returns a structured summary for your staff to review and file. Your clinician reads the summary, decides what goes in the chart, and makes all clinical decisions. The AI routes and escalates; your team diagnoses and treats.
The AI confirms the appointment with the patient on the call and writes it directly to your Kareo calendar. New patient demographics (name, date of birth, phone number) sync to Kareo as well. The patient receives an SMS or email confirmation immediately. Your team sees the appointment on the schedule and can prepare the chart while the patient is still on the line.
MedReception is custom-built for your allergy practice but independent of your EMR. If you move from Kareo to another system, your AI receptionist stays with you. Your workflow, your escalation rules, your intake questions, all portable. No rebuild, no re-setup, no lost configuration.
Launch takes about one week from signup. Your Kareo connection and practice phone number are ready in one to three days. Registering your number for patient texting takes about five business days. Once live, our team handles all edits and optimization for free, for life.
