Workflow
Migraine clinics face a common triage challenge: distinguishing routine follow-ups from acute attacks requiring immediate provider contact. MedReception performs that triage in real-time and routes urgent cases to on-call staff while patients wait on the call.
A patient calling with status migraine or first severe attack reaches an on-call provider directly, not a callback list. Minutes matter in acute migraine management.
When your provider accepts an escalated call, symptom onset, medication history, and severity are already documented. No time lost to questions you've already asked the patient.
Appointment requests and refill inquiries are routed appropriately without triggering unnecessary escalations, reducing on-call fatigue and allowing providers to rest between real emergencies.
Unlike staff fatigue or individual judgment, the AI applies your clinic's escalation rules identically to every call, reducing variance and missed urgent cases.
Emergency calls escalated instantly
Calls matching acute migraine indicators trigger provider notification without delay
Structured triage on every acute call
Onset, severity, prior episodes, and medication attempts captured before provider engagement
On-call routing integrated seamlessly
Works with your existing pager system and after-hours protocols
Escalation audit trail maintained
Every urgent call logged with triage details for compliance and quality review
You define your clinic's escalation rules during setup. Common triggers: first severe migraine, pain rated 8+/10, status migraine, associated neurological symptoms (vision loss, weakness, speech changes), or patient request for urgent care. Any call matching those criteria is escalated immediately.
Yes. During intake, the system asks about symptom timing and onset. If the patient says they're calling about an appointment from last week, that's routed as routine. If they say they woke up with the worst headache of their life this morning, that triggers escalation.
The system completes its intake questions while notifying your on-call provider in the background. The patient's call is not dropped. Your provider accepts the notification and can pick up the call seamlessly, or the patient receives a callback within your SLA.
You configure on-call routing rules: by specialty, by availability window, by patient preference if available in the chart, or round-robin across your on-call pool. The system references your EHR and your on-call schedule to route correctly.
The system reads your EHR. If a patient has prior status migraines or hospitalizations, you can flag their account to lower the escalation threshold (e.g., escalate even at 7/10 pain if they have that history). Your staff updates the chart; the system applies it to all future calls.
