Capture every patient call with automatic logging, transcription, and compliance tracking. Every call is documented, timestamped, and accessible for audits and quality assurance.

How it pays back

Complete Audit Trail for Compliance

Every inbound is logged with timestamp, caller info, reason, and outcome. Your compliance team has a complete record for HIPAA audits, incident investigations, and quality assurance. No guesswork about whether a call was taken or what was said.

Quality Assurance & Staff Training

Listen to call recordings, review transcriptions, and analyze staff performance. Identify coaching opportunities, highlight best practices, and ensure consistent patient communication standards across your team.

Patient Communication Documentation

Call summaries capture key patient information—symptoms, questions, preferences—in structured format. Staff review the summary and paste it into the EMR as a note, ensuring the patient's contact is documented in their official record.

Frequently asked questions

Are call recordings HIPAA compliant?

Yes. MedReception uses encrypted storage, role-based access controls, and audit logging to ensure all patient information is protected according to HIPAA standards. Recordings are stored securely and only accessible to authorized staff.

Can patients opt out of call recording?

Many states require two-party consent for call recording. MedReception follows all state and federal laws. At the start of each call, the AI informs the caller that the call is being recorded. Check your state's requirements with your compliance officer.

How long are call recordings retained?

You determine retention policy based on your compliance needs. Standard medical records retention is 3–7 years. MedReception supports custom retention schedules; older recordings can be archived or deleted per your policy.

Can I generate a report of all calls for a specific date or patient?

Yes. The MedReception dashboard includes filtering by date range, patient name, phone number, call reason, and outcome. You can export reports for audit or analysis.

What information is captured in the call summary?

Caller name, phone, call date/time, stated reason for call, any clinical keywords mentioned, appointment confirmed or callback queued, and escalation flags. The summary is structured so staff can review it and paste it into the EMR as a note without reformatting.
