Clinical Workflows
Mesa practices need urgent calls escalated to clinical staff without delay. An AI receptionist identifies urgent calls, confirms patient identity, and routes to the on-call provider in seconds.
A patient with severe symptoms doesn't wait in a voicemail queue. The AI recognizes urgency and connects them to a clinician immediately.
Call logs show when urgent calls arrived, who they were routed to, and timestamps. Full compliance trail for medical records and risk management.
Your provider sees the patient's name, complaint, and call history before picking up. They're prepared, not flying blind.
Your front desk or clinical staff don't have to listen to every call and decide urgency. The AI handles initial triage; only truly urgent calls interrupt the care team.

The AI listens for keywords like 'chest pain,' 'can't breathe,' 'severe bleeding,' 'unconscious,' etc. It also asks clarifying questions: 'Are you in severe pain right now?' If the patient confirms urgency, escalation happens immediately.
The call is escalated to a backup provider or nurse hotline if configured. If no one answers, the patient is alerted and offered to go to the ER. Your staff receives a priority alert so they can follow up.
Yes. The AI is always listening. The on-call provider's phone number is in the system. Calls are routed day or night, weekends, holidays, and after-hours clinic closures.
Yes. Calls are encrypted and stored in HIPAA-compliant infrastructure. Your provider can document the call in the patient's chart, and the recording is retained for your records per your retention policy.
The AI is trained to de-escalate and ask clarifying questions. A caller who is worried but stable is routed normally (scheduled for next available, or transferred to advice nurse). Only clinically urgent calls are escalated to the on-call provider.
