Sleep Medicine
Sleep medicine practices struggle with call volume spikes during business hours and lose new patient calls to voicemail. MedReception's AI receptionist answers every call instantly, collects sleep-specific intake data (sleep complaint, duration, daytime symptoms, prior testing) on the phone, books the appointment, and returns a structured summary your staff reviews and files. Insurance details and photo ID are captured separately for your team to handle. New patients arrive with intake complete.

Front desk staff handle existing patient questions, billing, and rescheduling. Katie, the AI receptionist, answers new patient intake calls instantly. Urgent calls route to your staff or on-call provider based on the rules you set. Sleep medicine referrals stop going to voicemail.
The AI asks sleep-specific questions during scheduling: onset of sleep problems, snoring, witnessed apneas, daytime sleepiness, prior polysomnography or home sleep testing, current CPAP use, and relevant medications. Your provider sees a complete picture before the patient walks in.
Patient name, date of birth, phone, and address are created as a new patient record in your EMR. The appointment is booked. Insurance and photo ID are captured on the call and returned in a secure portal for your staff to review and file. No back-and-forth calls or paper forms in the waiting room.
MedReception is custom-built for your practice. You set the questions asked, the triage rules for urgent calls, the providers and time slots offered, and which calls route after-hours. Your staff edits and optimizes the AI's behavior forever, at no extra cost. If you switch EMRs later, your AI stays with you.

No. The AI captures sleep history, symptoms, and prior testing on the phone and returns a structured summary for your provider to review. Your physician makes all clinical decisions. Urgent calls are escalated to your staff or on-call provider per your rules.
