Decision Guide
Kareo practices face a choice: voicemail systems that miss calls, IVR trees that frustrate patients, or an AI receptionist that books appointments into Kareo and answers every call. Learn what sets MedReception apart.
MedReception reads your Kareo schedule and appointment types in real time. New appointments and patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) sync directly to Kareo. Chief complaint, allergies, medications, and medical history are captured during the call and returned as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary for your team to review and file.
Patients call your practice and reach a conversational AI receptionist, not a 'press 1' tree or a generic answering service. The AI knows your specialties, chief complaint categories, and appointment workflows.
Unlike traditional phone systems, MedReception detects urgent symptoms, gathers relevant history, and escalates to your on-call provider with caller info, chief complaint, and medical history already captured.
First-time callers' demographics are captured during the call and synced to Kareo. Intake data (chief complaint, allergies, medications) is returned as a structured summary for your team to review and file. No voicemail transcription or manual chart creation.

Workflow-specific training
AI learns your specialty, appointment types, and protocols from Kareo and your team input
Traditional systems record messages that staff must replay and transcribe. MedReception answers every call with a conversational AI that books appointments into Kareo, captures patient demographics and intake as a structured summary, and escalates urgent calls in real time.
IVR systems frustrate callers with 'press 1' menus and routing loops. MedReception uses natural conversation. Callers speak their request, the AI understands context, and appointments are booked into Kareo without menu choices.
Yes. MedReception connects to Kareo to sync appointments and patient demographics. Your practice continues using Kareo as your system of record; MedReception simply answers calls and syncs appointment and demographic data into it.
Most virtual assistant services require your staff to manually enter bookings into Kareo after each call. MedReception syncs appointments automatically. You also avoid per-call fees and can handle unlimited calls.
MedReception is trained on your Kareo appointment types, chief complaint categories, and workflows. Your team also provides initial guidance on protocols, red flags, and escalation rules specific to your specialty.
MedReception is EMR-independent and portable. Appointment and patient demographic data syncs to Kareo while you use it. If you migrate to another supported EMR, MedReception integrates with your new system, and your team can export historical call summaries.
