Clinical Workflow
The AI receptionist captures symptoms, medications, allergies, and chief complaint during calls and returns clean, structured summaries to your Kareo staff. Your clinicians review and file them—the AI does not write to the clinical chart.
Medical documentation is a clinical responsibility. MedReception gathers the raw data; your providers and clinical staff validate, synthesize, and file it. No AI-authored chart notes means no compliance risk, no chart audit surprises.
Instead of a rambling voicemail or a half-legible handwritten note, your staff receives a structured summary: 'Chief Complaint: Chest pain, 2 days | Onset: Sudden, worse with activity | Medications: Metoprolol 25mg daily' etc. Parsing time drops to seconds.
Your front desk does not re-ask questions already asked on the call. One intake, one structured summary, one filing step. Reduces both time and the risk of conflicting or lost information.
During the call, urgent symptoms trigger an instant escalation to the provider or on-call staff. The structured summary travels with the escalation so they have context from day one, not after chart review.
HIPAA and medical board standards expect clinicians to write clinical notes. MedReception handles intake; your clinicians own documentation. That audit trail is clear and defensible.
Structured intake summaries
Chief complaint, medications, allergies, and symptoms in standardized format
Clinician-controlled filing
Staff review and validate before any entry into the Kareo chart
Zero AI chart authorship
Documentation remains a clinical responsibility, not automated
Urgent escalation context included
On-call providers see intake summary with urgent alerts
An intake summary is raw, structured data captured during the call: 'Patient reports chest pain x 2 days, worse with exertion, takes Metoprolol.' A clinical note is a provider's synthesis and assessment: 'Stable-appearing patient with atypical chest pain; consider EKG and troponin.' Your clinician writes the note; the AI provides the summary data.
During setup, we configure intake questions based on your specialty and chief complaint categories. For example, an ortho practice captures pain location, severity, mechanism; a cardiology practice captures chest pain characteristics and associated symptoms. Your clinical team helps design the intake flow.
Yes. If a patient is calling from their patient portal or has been seen before, we pull known allergies and medications from Kareo and ask about changes. If new, the AI asks 'Any known drug allergies?' and 'What medications do you take regularly?' and captures their response in the summary.
The AI immediately escalates to an on-call provider or emergency dispatch, depending on your protocol. The structured intake summary is included in the escalation alert so the provider has context without delay.
The summary is returned as a text blob that staff can copy and paste into a new Kareo note, or it can be formatted as a structured data entry template. Most practices paste it as-is, add their own clinical assessment, and save it as a 'Phone Intake – Reviewed by [Clinician]' note dated with the call timestamp.
The summary is never submitted directly to the chart. Your clinical staff review it before filing. If they spot a discrepancy, they correct it. The call is also recorded (with consent) so you have an audio source of truth.
