Physical Therapy

Your PT practice closes at 5 PM, but injury calls don't stop. Annie answers every after-hours call, books urgent slots, and captures intake, so Monday morning your team starts informed.

Physical therapy practices in Mesa miss after-hours calls when the front desk leaves. MedReception's Annie handles every call after hours and weekends, books new patient appointments into your EMR, and returns structured intake summaries so your therapists know what to expect. No voicemail dead ends, no lost revenue.

How it pays back

Never lose a weekend injury call

PT clinics in Mesa field urgent calls Friday evening through Sunday. Annie answers every one, captures the injury type and availability, and books the first open slot. Your therapists arrive Monday with new patients already scheduled and intake notes ready.

EMR-native booking, no double entry

Appointments booked on the call appear in your calendar automatically. New patient records are created with name, date of birth, and phone number, your staff reviews the intake summary and files it. No manual entry, no data loss, no reconciliation.

Your practice, your rules, your AI

MedReception is custom-built for your PT clinic. You set escalation rules, Annie follows them, and your team gets white-glove onboarding and FREE lifetime edits. Switch EMRs later, keep your AI, it's portable and independent.

Frequently asked questions

Does Annie book into our EMR automatically?

Yes. When a caller confirms an appointment, Annie books it directly into your calendar in athenahealth, Tebra, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, ModMed, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, Nextech, or other named platforms. Your front desk doesn't have to re-enter it. New patient records are created with name, date of birth, and phone number; medical history and injury details are captured on the call and returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and file.

What happens if a caller needs urgent same-day care?

You set the escalation rules. Annie can route urgent calls to your on-call therapist, send an SMS alert to your team, or hold the caller on the line while she pages someone. Established patients asking about acute flare-ups are flagged for priority handling. Your team decides the threshold and the action.

Can Annie handle calls in Spanish?

Yes. Bilingual lines answer in English and Spanish. Annie books appointments and captures intake in both languages, and your team receives the same structured summaries.

How long does setup take?

Launch takes about one week from signup. Your EHR connection and phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering the number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. Your white-glove onboarding team handles the rest.

What if we use an EMR that's not on your list?

Katie still answers every call, handles intake, and sends booking requests to your staff to enter manually. Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your EHR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours.
