Stop losing calls and patients: AI answers every call, books appointments in Kareo, confirms in writing

Every incoming call is answered by AI or routed to staff immediately. Appointments are confirmed in writing, reducing no-shows. Missed calls and voicemail backlogs disappear.

How it pays back

Every call is a conversion opportunity

No more 'sorry, we were on another line.' AI answers and either books the appointment or queues for callback. Patients who reach a human on the first try are more likely to book and keep the appointment.

Written confirmation reduces no-shows

After booking, the patient receives a text or email with date, time, provider, and location. A second reminder goes out 24 hours before. Patients who confirm in writing are less likely to forget or double-book.

Staff reclaims time spent on hold and call-backs

Your front desk handles routine calls more efficiently. They can focus on check-in, insurance verification, and patient care rather than call juggling.

Data reveals your call and no-show patterns

Which appointment types have the highest no-show rate? Which times are busiest? Which callers book but cancel? Your MedReception dashboard shows trends, and you can adjust scheduling or follow-up strategy.

Frequently asked questions

If we reduce missed calls, doesn't that mean more appointment bookings and more pressure on the schedule?

In the short term, yes—you'll book more calls because more callers reach you. Over time, AI handles routine bookings without staff intervention, and your schedule becomes more efficient. Staff can also identify gaps and optimize provider blocks based on call volume patterns from your dashboard.

How does written confirmation impact no-show rates?

Confirmation and reminder notifications help reduce no-shows by ensuring patients have their appointment details in writing. Outcomes vary by practice, population, and appointment type. We recommend tracking your baseline no-show rate before deployment and monitoring the change over the first 90 days.

What if a patient doesn't have a cell phone or email?

The AI asks the patient's preferred contact method during the call. If no phone or email, your staff can note the patient as 'callback required' and call to confirm the day before or the morning of the appointment.

Does Kareo track no-show patterns in the EHR?

Yes. Kareo records appointment no-shows and cancellations. MedReception integrates with Kareo appointments, so your call data (who booked, when, what they said) correlates with no-show patterns in your EHR reports.
