Workflow

Book acute migraine patients into available urgent slots during the call—no scheduler follow-up

AI reception integrates with your scheduling system to book acute migraine appointments in real time, reducing callback delays and improving first-contact resolution.

How it pays back

First-Call Appointment Confirmation

Acute migraine patients get an appointment slot confirmed before they hang up. No callback needed, no day lost to scheduling delays.

Reduced No-Show for Urgent Migraine Cases

Patient is engaged, appointment is confirmed on the call, and reminder goes out immediately. Urgent slots have higher show rates because the patient commitment is immediate.

Urgent Slot Utilization

Your urgent or same-day slots fill in real time instead of sitting empty waiting for staff callbacks. Scheduler efficiency improves because the AI is booking, not your staff.

Clear EMR Workflow

Appointment created in your EMR with patient demographics, phone number, and linked intake summary for staff review. Staff see the full context when the patient arrives.

Frequently asked questions

Can the AI book a same-day urgent migraine appointment?

Yes. The system checks for available same-day urgent slots, offers the patient the next open time, and books it instantly. If no same-day slot is available, it offers the next-available urgent appointment.

How does the AI prevent double-booking?

The system integrates with your EMR or scheduling system and reads real-time availability. It only offers slots that are confirmed open, and it locks the slot when the patient accepts it. Your staff or other booking channels see the updated schedule immediately.

What EMR systems support real-time appointment booking?

We integrate with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, AdvancedMD, and ModMed. Integration timelines vary (athena/eCW often 1–3 weeks; others 3–6 weeks). Check your EMR's API capabilities during setup to confirm real-time two-way sync.

Does the AI send the appointment confirmation to the patient?

The AI confirms the appointment verbally on the call. Your system then sends an SMS and/or email reminder based on your clinic's configured reminder rules. The AI doesn't send these directly; your EMR's reminder system does.

What if an urgent migraine case needs to speak to a provider before booking?

You can configure the system to pause appointment booking for high-severity cases and route the call to your on-call provider or urgent line instead. The provider can then decide on urgent scheduling or escalation.
