Urgent calls identified and escalated to your on-call provider in seconds

When a Mesa patient calls with chest pain or severe symptoms, they need immediate triage, not a voicemail. AI receptionist flags urgent language and alerts your provider in real time.

How it pays back

Emergency calls never get lost

A patient calling with a life-threatening symptom needs help now, not voicemail. The AI identifies the urgency and immediately alerts your on-call provider, who can respond with appropriate guidance or emergency referral.

Triage and routing by your provider

Your provider can assess the call in real time and determine next steps—manage from home or clinic, schedule urgent same-day care, or direct to the ER as appropriate.

Liability and compliance protection

Every urgent call is documented, timestamped, and logged. Your practice has a clear record that the call was received, assessed, and escalated. This protects you clinically and legally.

Peace of mind for your providers

Providers can trust that urgent calls reach them immediately. They're not wondering if a critical message got lost in voicemail. The AI handles triage so they can sleep knowing alerts will find them.

Frequently asked questions

How does the AI know if a call is truly urgent?

The AI is trained on clinical language and tone. It listens for specific keywords (chest pain, shortness of breath, bleeding, severe symptoms) and vocal urgency markers. Your team can also customize the escalation criteria to match your protocols.

What happens after the AI flags an urgent call?

Your on-call provider receives an immediate alert with the caller's information, symptoms, and callback number. The provider can then call the patient directly, advise them, or direct them to the ER depending on the situation.

Can patients request to speak to someone immediately?

Yes. If a caller says 'this is urgent' or 'I need to talk to a doctor now,' the AI can transfer them directly or escalate the call immediately without delay.

What about after-hours escalations?

The AI handles after-hours calls the same way. Urgent calls trigger immediate alerts to your on-call provider via phone, SMS, or your preferred alert method. Your team defines the escalation rule for your after-hours coverage.

Does this increase liability?

No. Documentation and rapid escalation reduce liability. Every call is logged with exact timing and content. Your practice can demonstrate that urgent cases were identified and escalated appropriately.
