Specialty Workflow
Migraine patients in crisis need immediate triage and provider contact. MedReception captures acute call details and routes severity flags to on-call staff with a complete summary, ensuring fast clinical response.
On-call staff receive a structured summary—pain location, severity, onset, neuro signs, meds tried, trigger—before the call. They can triage or direct to ED without re-gathering information.
Thunderclap headache, vision loss, weakness, or fever are flagged by the AI and marked urgent. Routine migraines are downgraded, freeing provider time for true emergencies.
If the AI determines a patient needs urgent in-person evaluation, a slot is reserved or the patient is directed to urgent care. No 'call back Monday' for a severe migraine on Saturday.
Your staff doesn't re-ask 'When did it start?' or 'Does your head hurt on one side?' The AI has already captured this. Staff focus on clinical decision-making, not data entry.
Urgent calls routed to provider with summary
No delay; red flags pre-identified
Full migraine history captured in call
Pain profile, triggers, current med, onset, neuro signs
Intake summary handed to staff
Structured and ready for EMR filing; no manual re-entry
On-call escalation time minimized
Provider receives alert with context; can triage or direct to ED immediately
Immediately. If the caller describes sudden worst headache, neurological signs, or your defined red flags, the AI escalates before the call ends. Your on-call provider receives an SMS or page with a summary within seconds.
The AI is conversational and can adjust pace. If the caller is in severe distress, the AI can offer rapid triage questions ('1–10 pain scale?', 'Any vision changes?') and escalate immediately without full history. Your staff complete the chart after provider contact.
The AI flags high-risk features and your on-call provider makes the ED decision. If your practice protocol says certain symptoms always warrant ED, the AI can suggest that guidance to the caller while alerting your provider.
Appointment bookings and patient demographics (name, DOB, phone) sync to your EMR. The migraine intake summary—pain, triggers, meds, symptoms—is returned to your staff as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary that they review and file into the visit note. This keeps your clinical documentation accurate and under your control.
Yes. If a chronic migraineur calls back for refill, the AI can recognize them, pull their history, and use a streamlined intake. New or first-time severe headaches get full escalation protocol.
Stable calls—refill requests, follow-up scheduling, post-visit questions—are captured with intake and queued for your staff to handle first thing in the morning. The caller gets a confirmation of receipt and expected callback time.
