Practice Size
One AI receptionist handles call volume for 3–8 providers. Books appointments per provider schedule, captures new patient intake once per call, and routes callbacks and urgent cases based on specialty or provider.
A multi-provider Mesa clinic typically needs multiple FTE receptionists to answer phones and schedule. One AI receptionist handles peak volume, after-hours, and overflow. Your existing staff focus on patient check-in, rooming, clinical support, and other tasks that can't be automated. You grow your panel without proportional front desk growth.
When a patient calls, the AI asks: 'Who do you usually see?' or 'What's the reason for your visit?' and books with that provider if available, or offers an alternative. Complex questions (prior authorizations, insurance coverage) are triaged to your billing staff, not routed randomly. Urgent cases go to the clinical staff or nurse line. Fewer misdirected calls and callbacks.
New patient calls the clinic. The AI captures name, DOB, insurance, chief complaint, medication list, and allergies in one conversation. That structured intake is returned as a summary for your staff to review and file. Front desk staff verify demographics; clinical staff review medical history once and file it. No 'intake at scheduling, intake at check-in, intake at provider' waste.
Your front desk staff don't answer phones while trying to check patients in, verify insurance, or handle payment. They know all incoming calls are being handled by AI. Their job becomes greeter, check-in, and payment collection—higher patient satisfaction, fewer delays, fewer errors.

The AI asks 'Who do you usually see?' or 'What is the appointment for?' If the patient has a preferred provider, it checks that schedule. If not, it offers the next available slot with any provider or asks about specialty preference (e.g., 'Would you prefer our dermatologist or general practitioner?'). You can also set rules: new skin concerns go to the dermatologist, routine physicals to any provider, etc.
No. One main clinic phone number flows to the AI. Callers speak to a single receptionist (the AI), not a menu of provider extensions. The AI routes the call or books the appointment. If a patient insists on speaking to their provider's specific staff or needs a callback to a provider line, that's available, but most calls are resolved through the central AI.
The AI syncs to your EMR's shared calendar. If Dr. Smith works Mon/Wed/Fri and Dr. Jones works Tue/Thu, the AI sees both schedules in real time. It books accordingly and never offers an appointment when a provider is off.
Yes. If you have a downtown location and a North Mesa location, the AI can be configured to ask 'Which location would you prefer?' or 'Are you closer to downtown or North Mesa?' and route to the right calendar and escalation number. Works with 2 locations or 10.
Just add their schedule to your EMR. The AI picks it up automatically. No reprogramming, no vendor involvement. Within hours, new patients can book with the new provider.
