Patient Creation

First call to your practice: AI captures name, DOB, and phone; Kareo patient record created instantly

When a new patient calls, MedReception AI collects essential demographics and writes them to Kareo as a new patient record—ready for clinical staff to add insurance, history, and allergies.

How it pays back

Kareo Patient Records Ready for Intake

By the time the new patient arrives or the next business day begins, their name, DOB, and contact are in your Kareo system. Your staff skips the data-entry step and moves directly to insurance verification, medical history, and clinical intake.

No More 'Patient Not Found' at Check-In

The patient record exists in Kareo before they walk in the door (or before their first telehealth visit). Your front desk confirms details instead of creating records under pressure during a busy morning.

Insurance Capture Stays Under Your Control

MedReception captures insurance details on the call and returns them as a structured summary for your staff to review and enter into Kareo—keeping sensitive verification steps secure and compliant with your practice's intake protocol.

Cleaner, More Accurate Kareo Database

Because new patients are registered programmatically—not transcribed from voicemail by an overworked scheduler—your Kareo database has fewer typos, duplicates, and data gaps.

Frequently asked questions

What demographic fields does MedReception sync to Kareo?

First name, last name, date of birth, phone number, and email address. These are the core patient identifiers that allow your team to tie future calls and chart entries to the same record.

Does the AI ask for insurance during the new patient call?

Yes, the AI can ask for insurance information. However, that data is captured as part of the call summary and returned to your staff as a structured record for review. Your team enters insurance into Kareo using your standard intake workflow.

What happens if the same patient calls twice before their first appointment?

MedReception checks for duplicate entries before writing to Kareo. If a patient with the same name and DOB recently called, the second call is linked to the existing record rather than creating a duplicate.

Can we add custom fields to the new patient sync?

The core demographics (name, DOB, phone, email) sync to all Kareo instances. Custom fields depend on your Kareo configuration. Your team can work with us to map additional Kareo fields if your practice captures them universally.

What if a new patient gives incomplete information on the call?

The AI captures what the patient provides and returns it as a summary. Your staff can fill in missing details when the patient arrives or call to confirm. The Kareo record is never left incomplete—it's created with available data and staff adds the rest.
