Frequently asked questions

Can the AI book appointments for new patients without staff verification?

The AI gathers all required information—name, contact, reason for visit, insurance, emergency contact—and books new patient slots directly into your system. Staff review the intake summary before the appointment.

What if the patient wants a specific provider or time that's not available?

The AI explains options transparently and offers alternatives. If the requested slot is unavailable, the AI adds the patient to a waitlist and notifies them of cancellations or opens automatically.

How does the AI handle double bookings or calendar conflicts?

The system queries your live calendar and practice management system in real time. The AI only offers genuinely available slots based on current calendar state.

Can patients reschedule or cancel via the AI?

Absolutely. Patients can text, call, or use the appointment confirmation link to modify or cancel. The AI processes reschedules and cancellations immediately and updates the calendar.
