Frequently asked questions

How does the AI create a new patient record in Kareo?

The AI collects the patient's name, date of birth, phone number, and email during the call. MedReception then writes these demographics to Kareo as a new patient record. Your staff reviews the structured intake summary (chief complaint, symptoms, medical history, medications, allergies, insurance) returned from the call and files it into the chart.

What if the patient is already in Kareo but hasn't been seen in years?

MedReception checks your Kareo patient list before creating a new record. If the patient exists, the AI pulls up their record, confirms contact details, and books the appointment. If the record is outdated, your staff can update it from the call summary.

Does the AI ask all the intake questions?

Yes. The AI conducts a brief structured intake: reason for visit, symptom timeline, relevant medical history, current medications, allergies, and insurance. All responses are captured and returned as a summary for your Kareo chart.

Can I customize what questions the AI asks new patients?

Yes. MedReception is configured to your practice's intake protocol. If you want questions about family history, recent surgeries, or specific symptoms, the AI can ask them. You control the intake template.

Does this work for established patients calling back?

Absolutely. The AI recognizes established patients calling in, pulls their Kareo record, and updates contact details if needed. New intake is optional for returning patients; the AI can book a follow-up visit immediately.
