Kareo Integration

When the AI transfers a call to your team, they see the caller's history, intake summary, and appointment needs in Kareo—ready to resolve in one handoff

AI receptionist passes complete call context to staff before they pick up. Your team gets the caller's name, phone, and Kareo patient record linked on screen. Structured intake summaries (reason for call, appointment preferences, prior visit history) are available for staff review—no hold time, no re-explaining.

How it pays back

Staff Answer Informed, Not Blind

When a staff member picks up a transferred call, they already know who is calling, why, and what their Kareo history is. They can say 'Hi Sarah, I see you're calling about your knee follow-up—let me check Dr. Smith's schedule' instead of 'Hello, who am I speaking with?' That context makes every interaction faster and more personal.

No Caller Re-Explanation

Callers hate repeating themselves. With AI intake and Kareo context, they tell their story once. Staff sees it and acts on it. Fewer frustrated callers, fewer repeat calls, faster resolution.

Reduced Staff Handle Time

Staff spend less time gathering information and more time solving problems. If a caller books an appointment, confirms details, and the AI already captured intake, staff can confirm, answer questions, and hang up—not repeat intake from scratch.

Clinical Context Available Immediately

Prior visit notes, appointment history, and flagged information are visible to staff and clinical team. Nobody has to dig through old charts or ask 'Do we have your contact information?'

Frequently asked questions

How does the context reach staff before the call transfers?

The AI gathers caller info and checks Kareo in real time. It then sends a pre-transfer summary to your phone system and staff interface. By the time the call rings through, staff see the caller's name, reason, and Kareo record link on screen.

What information does the AI send to staff?

Caller name and phone, reason for call, appointment request details, Kareo patient record link (if existing), and prior appointment history. Structured intake summaries (caller-reported reason for visit, preferences) are available for staff to review. Your practice configures which fields staff see.

Can staff see the AI's intake summary before picking up the call?

Yes. The structured intake—caller-reported reason for visit, appointment preferences, and any notes—is available in the staff interface. Staff can glance at it before answering or refer to it during the call.

What if the caller's information doesn't match Kareo records?

The AI alerts staff to the mismatch, and staff can investigate. This prevents wrong-patient calls and duplicate records.

Does this work for after-hours escalations, too?

Yes. If a call transfers to an on-call provider, answering service, or external partner, the same context can be passed along, depending on your routing setup and partner integrations.

Can staff customize what context they want to see?

Yes. Your practice can configure which fields appear in the staff interface. Some teams want minimal info; others want full history. The system adapts to your preference.
