Compliance
Migraine clinics collect sensitive health data during patient calls. MedReception handles call recording, data storage, and intake capture with HIPAA compliance built in—encrypted storage, audit trails, and secure handoff of patient information to staff.

You don't need to build or maintain separate systems for compliant call handling. MedReception is designed for healthcare and meets HIPAA requirements for encryption, access control, and audit trails.
Insurance information and ID documents are captured outside the call recording and handled separately. Clinical data from the call is structured and encrypted. You control what enters the chart.
Every call, access, and data transfer is logged. If a patient asks who accessed their call or if an audit is required, you have a complete record of what happened and when.
Only authorized personnel (clinicians, nurses, specific front-desk staff) can access call recordings or intake summaries. Unauthorized access attempts are flagged and logged.
Encrypted end-to-end
All calls recorded and stored on HIPAA-compliant servers
Audit trails on every access

Role-based staff access

Patient consent documented
Recording disclosure and consent captured during call greeting
It depends on your state's consent laws. MedReception handles consent disclosure during the AI greeting: 'This call may be recorded for quality and compliance purposes.' The AI documents consent and stores the recording only if the patient confirms. Check with your legal team on your specific state requirements.
You set the retention policy during setup. For example, you might keep routine calls for 30-90 days and calls that result in clinical decisions or disputes longer. MedReception supports your retention schedule and can auto-delete recordings after the specified period.
You control role-based access. Typically, clinicians and authorized nursing staff can access recordings; front-desk staff cannot. Access is logged so you can audit who listened and when.
Insurance info is captured during the call but stored separately from the clinical recording and intake summary. It's handed to staff as a separate data element for verification and entry into your billing system—not part of the permanent call recording.
No. MedReception is a service provider under HIPAA's Business Associate Agreement (BAA). Patient data is never sold, shared with third parties, or used for any purpose other than providing the reception service to your clinic.
You can delete recordings on request, subject to your legal and compliance obligations (e.g., if the call involved a clinical incident, it may need to be retained for your records). MedReception supports deletion requests; your compliance officer confirms whether retention is required.
