Patient Onboarding

Capture new patient demographics and intake on the first call — Mesa practices booking and pre-registering in one step

Mesa practices that book new patients by phone can now complete intake in the same call. The AI asks the right questions, captures demographics, and returns structured data so staff inherit a ready-to-file summary.

How it pays back

First Call = Booked + Intake Complete

No back-and-forth emails or phone tag over paperwork. The new patient's first conversation is their booking and intake. They arrive prepared; your staff can focus on the visit.

Fewer No-Shows and Cancellations

A patient who has given all their details and knows their appointment time is more likely to show up. Commitment is stronger on the first call.

Ready-to-File Summary, Not Blank Charts

Your clinical staff opens the chart and finds name, DOB, phone, chief complaint, and allergies already captured. Staff review and file the structured summary — no manual data entry needed.

Compliance Built In

The AI knows HIPAA constraints and does not store audio. Insurance questions and clinical details are captured as a structured summary for your staff to verify and file — not auto-written to the chart.

Frequently asked questions

What questions does the AI ask during intake?

You configure the questions. Typical examples: chief complaint, duration of symptoms, current medications, known allergies, insurance carrier, emergency contact, and reason for visit. You can customize the flow by practice type or provider.

How does insurance information get into the EMR?

The AI captures the patient's insurance answers (carrier name, plan type, member ID if offered) as a structured summary and returns it to your staff. Your staff reviews, verifies, and files it into the patient record. It is not auto-written to the chart.

What if the patient has complex medical history?

The AI captures the patient's self-reported history (prior surgeries, allergies, current meds) and returns it as a structured text summary for your staff to review, verify, and file. The clinical staff always owns the final chart documentation.

Can it handle patients who don't have insurance?

Yes. The intake adapts. If the patient says 'I don't have insurance,' the AI notes that and moves to the next question. The summary flags it for your billing team.

How fast is the intake call?

Typical new patient intake calls take 3–5 minutes. The AI asks clearly, listens actively, and does not repeat. Patients appreciate the brevity.
