Clinical Workflow
Urgent care clinics lose calls after staff leaves or during peak periods. MedReception's AI answers every inbound call, triages by symptom severity, escalates true emergencies to on-call providers, and books routine and minor-injury visits directly into your Kareo schedule.
AI screens for critical symptoms and immediately transfers to on-call provider or advises caller to call 911. Time saved in triage can mean life-saving intervention.
Minor injuries, colds, and follow-ups don't need staff involvement after hours. AI books them into Kareo and patient is confirmed. Staff see the appointment in the morning and can prepare.
By the time a routine caller arrives at urgent care, staff already know the complaint (sprained ankle, sore throat, etc.). Check-in is faster, triage is faster, provider is ready.
AI knows your current census and open slots. It books smartly and can route overflow to partner clinics or refer to ED if wait time is too long.
Routine visits booked into Kareo
Minor complaints and injuries auto-scheduled into next available slot
Chief complaint captured at intake
Staff and providers see reason for visit before patient arrives
After-hours staffing not required
AI handles full call volume; on-call staff only receive escalated emergencies
The AI uses a triage protocol configured for urgent care (chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe bleeding, altered mental status, signs of stroke, etc.). If a caller reports any critical symptom, the AI immediately transfers to on-call staff or advises 911. Borderline cases are escalated to staff for human judgment.
Yes. For urgent-but-not-emergency cases (possible fracture, severe laceration), the AI can book the patient into an immediate slot in Kareo while also alerting on-call staff that a high-priority patient is en route.
The AI can offer wait-time estimates, refer to nearby urgent care clinics, or route to the ED if the complaint warrants. Staff configure the overflow protocol. This prevents overcrowding and reduces patient frustration.
No. The AI reads your Kareo schedule in real time and sees which providers have open slots. If a specific provider is requested, the AI offers their next availability. Staff can also set standing instructions for certain complaint types (lacerations always see Dr. X, etc.).
The AI captures the chief complaint during the call and returns it as a structured summary for staff. Staff review and file the relevant details in the Kareo chart. The AI doesn't auto-populate clinical fields—staff validate and enter the chief complaint and any relevant history.
