After-Hours Workflow
Migraine patients don't follow clinic hours. After-hours calls currently hit voicemail or an answering service with no access to patient history. AI answers after-hours migraine calls immediately, gathers symptom details, escalates red flags to your on-call provider, and logs everything for follow-up.
When a migraine patient calls at 9 PM with worsening symptoms, they hear a professional response immediately. AI gathers their symptoms, accesses their chart if they're established, and routes the call to your on-call provider within seconds—no waiting, no call-back queue.
Call summary includes patient name, migraine history, current symptoms, medications tried, and red flags detected. Your provider can make a clinical decision—urgent visit, telehealth, observation, or ER—without repeating intake questions.
Status migrainosus, neurological deficits, and new migraine types are escalated to your on-call provider in real time. Patients get a clinical response, not a voicemail timeout.
Your team logs what symptoms were reported, how they were triaged, what the on-call provider decided, and what the patient was told. This record helps your clinic refine protocols and ensures continuity if the patient calls again the next day.

Status migrainosus, neurological symptoms, and new migraine routed to on-call provider
Patient history accessed
AI reads EMR to provide on-call provider with full migraine context
Call documented for continuity
Every after-hours triage logged; summary available to your team at morning clinic
You decide the after-hours protocol. AI can offer patient guidance (call 911, go to urgent care, go to ER), provide a callback window, leave voicemail, or route to an on-call nurse hotline if you have one. Your protocol is built into the AI's response rules.
AI follows your clinical protocols to provide guidance for clear red flags (severe migraine with vision loss, weakness, altered speech). However, your on-call provider always makes the final recommendation. If the patient's symptoms warrant immediate evaluation, AI escalates to your provider or advises them to call 911.
AI can ask the patient for their name and date of birth, then search your EMR. If the patient is found, AI pulls their migraine history and medications. If not found, AI treats them as a new patient and gathers full intake.
Yes. All after-hours calls are recorded and logged. You receive a daily summary of calls, escalations, and outcomes. Your quality team can review call recordings and transcripts to ensure compliance and refine protocols.
Yes. AI can offer options: speak to someone now, request a callback from on-call provider within 30 minutes, or receive guidance for self-care. Patients choose their preference, and AI routes accordingly.
