Kareo Integration

Clarify what syncs to your Kareo chart and what stays in intake summary form

AI receptionist writes appointment bookings, new patient demographics, and reason for visit directly to Kareo. Intake summaries, insurance details, and clinical flags are captured and returned as structured text for staff review and filing.

How it pays back

No Duplicate or Incomplete Chart Entries

By returning intake as a summary instead of auto-filing it, your staff review data before it enters the permanent chart. Conflicting information, unclear abbreviations, or missing details are caught and corrected.

Appointment Booking Happens Instantly; Intake Review Happens On Staff Time

The caller gets immediate appointment confirmation. Your team reviews and files the intake summary during administrative time or check-in, not under call pressure.

Insurance Verification Stays in Your Workflow

Insurance information is captured on the call and handed to billing staff, not auto-populated into the chart. Your team verifies benefits, coverage, and patient responsibility before filing.

HIPAA and Compliance by Design

Every write-back action is logged. Staff review ensures accuracy and compliance. Intake summaries are timestamped and attributed to the call, not manually transcribed.

Frequently asked questions

Why doesn't the AI auto-populate allergies and medications into Kareo?

Allergies and medications are critical clinical data. Errors in these fields can harm patients. By returning them as a verified summary, your clinical team reviews the data before it enters the permanent chart. This is safer and meets compliance standards.

What does 'write-back' mean?

Write-back means data flows from the AI system directly into Kareo's database. Appointments, new patient names, and phone numbers are written back. Intake summaries are captured and returned to staff as structured text—not written directly to the chart.

If the AI captures insurance information, why do I need to verify it?

Insurance verification requires real-time checking of eligibility, coverage, and patient responsibility. Patients sometimes provide outdated insurance cards or incorrect member IDs. Your billing staff checks against the insurance company's system before filing to ensure accuracy and prevent claim denials.

How long does it take for an appointment to appear in Kareo after the caller books?

The appointment appears in Kareo within seconds of the booking confirmation. Your schedule is updated in real time.

Can my staff customize what data gets written to Kareo vs. captured as a summary?

Yes. Your practice can configure the AI to return certain fields as summaries and write others directly to Kareo. Talk to the MedReception team about your specific Kareo workflow and preferences.
