Urgent Care
Every night call gets triaged immediately. AI routes to on-call staff, urgent facility, or ER based on symptoms. Patients get answers fast; staff focuses on care, not intake.
By the time your on-call provider picks up, the AI has already gathered symptoms, vitals if available, and determined urgency level. No wasted time on data gathering.
Chest pain, difficulty breathing, or uncontrolled bleeding triggers an immediate alert to the provider and, if needed, EMS dispatch. No hold time, no delays.
Fever, minor cuts, or medication questions often don't need an ER visit. The AI provides guidance, advises on home care, and offers follow-up scheduling with your clinic.
Providers spend their after-hours time on clinical decisions and patient care, not repeating questions or entering data.

AI-guided advice prevents unnecessary ED transfers for stable complaints
When a call comes in after hours, the AI asks symptom questions (chest pain, shortness of breath, fever, bleeding) and determines urgency level. Life-threatening symptoms trigger immediate alerts; stable complaints are offered guidance or routing to on-call staff.
The system immediately alerts the on-call provider and, if necessary, triggers EMS dispatch. The provider receives the patient's details before they call back. In parallel, the patient is advised to call 911 or go to the nearest ER.
The AI offers first-aid advice for stable complaints (fever, minor cuts, mild stomach pain)—things like 'Take acetaminophen every 4 hours' or 'Apply direct pressure and elevate.' It always advises patients to follow up with their physician the next day or seek ER care if symptoms worsen.
New patient demographics and the reason for the after-hours call are captured as a structured intake summary. Your day staff can review the summary and follow up with the patient. Symptoms, vitals, and clinical details are returned as an EMR-pasteable summary for your team to review and file.
You set routing rules during setup. Calls can ring directly to the on-call provider's personal cell, a clinic voicemail, or a partner answering service. The AI transfers the call after completing triage and passing the summary.
