Kareo + Compliance
An AI receptionist designed for healthcare compliance: HIPAA-aware call handling, secure data capture during intake, compliant Kareo write operations, and audit trails for every call and data transfer.
The system is designed for healthcare from the ground up. Patient calls are treated as PHI (Protected Health Information) from the first second. Encryption, access controls, and data retention follow HIPAA standards.
The AI captures clinical data and returns structured summaries for staff review before filing; it does not auto-populate clinical data to Kareo. This boundary prevents common chart errors and compliance violations from unverified data in the record.
Every call, every piece of captured data, and every Kareo write operation is logged with timestamps. During compliance audits or dispute resolution, you have a complete record of what happened and when.
Fewer manual steps, fewer handoffs, and clear audit trails mean less room for error or regulatory violation. Your practice demonstrates strong PHI handling practices during inspections or audits.

All calls are treated as PHI. The AI uses end-to-end encryption for call transmission, does not store unencrypted audio on public servers, and complies with HIPAA data retention and deletion standards. Call recordings are stored securely and access is logged.
Yes. Data transmission from the AI system to Kareo is encrypted. Only HIPAA-permitted data is written (appointments, demographics, new patient records). Medical history and other detailed intake is captured and returned as a structured summary for staff review and filing, preventing unverified PHI in charts.
The AI does not capture or store full credit card numbers or Social Security Numbers. If a caller offers this information, the AI can direct them to a secure portal or inform them to provide it during the in-office visit. If SSN or payment info is mentioned, it's flagged in the call log but not transcribed or stored.
You set the retention policy during setup. Most practices retain for 30–90 days for compliance and dispute resolution, then securely delete. The system can auto-delete after your specified timeframe to ensure compliance.
Only your staff with login credentials can access calls and data. Access is logged and auditable. You can set granular permissions—e.g., front desk sees calls but not clinical summaries, billing sees insurance info only. All access is timestamped in audit logs.
Yes. The integration is designed for certified EMRs and complies with EHR certification standards. Kareo is a certified EHR, and the AI integration respects those certifications and standards for secure, compliant data exchange.
