Operations
Routine calls—appointments, reschedules, refills, status checks—are answered and processed by the AI. Staff manage only exceptions, insurance issues, and direct patient care calls, improving focus and throughput.
With the AI answering routine calls, your team has uninterrupted time for clinical work, insurance calls, and patient care. Phone ringing no longer derails every activity.
When staff are not constantly answering phones, appointment entry, chart updates, and messaging happen with fewer mistakes. Attention and focus improve dramatically.
Patients with real concerns reach staff immediately. Questions like 'Can I get an appointment Tuesday?' are answered instantly by AI. Staff energy goes to empathy and problem-solving.
No end-of-day call backlog. Remaining calls are organized in Kareo with clear priorities. Staff leave when they're done with planned work.

AI handles appointment booking, reschedules, cancellations, refill requests, lab result inquiries, and appointment confirmations. Calls about billing, insurance authorization, complex medical questions, and upset patients are routed to staff with full context.
All handled calls are logged in Kareo with a flag for callback or follow-up. Staff open Kareo in the morning and see a prioritized list of calls needing response, with caller name, reason, and preferred time.
The AI listens for distress cues and urgency in the caller's voice. Any sign of emergency, pain, or distress triggers immediate routing to staff or on-call provider, regardless of the stated reason.
No. Staff retain full oversight through Kareo. They see every call, the AI's notes, and can modify routing rules anytime. It's an addition to their workflow, not a replacement.
Yes. You set rules in Kareo for call types, keywords, caller attributes, and time of day. You decide what the AI handles and what comes to staff. Rules adjust as your practice needs evolve.
