Migraine Care
Not every migraine call is routine. AI reception listens for red flags—thunderclap onset, neurological symptoms, medication overuse—and escalates to your provider or urgent protocol immediately.
Severe or secondary headache presentations are identified on the call and routed to your on-call provider or urgent team immediately, preventing the hours-long delay of callback-based routing.
When your provider's phone rings with an escalated migraine call, they already see the AI's structured summary: onset type, symptom pattern, associated neuro findings, and red flag triggers.
Recognizing thunderclap migraine, meningitis, stroke, or secondary cause on the initial call and routing urgently to a provider minimizes risk of delayed diagnosis.
You define what constitutes urgent escalation: new-onset migraine, uncontrolled migraine on current therapy, neurological symptoms, medication overuse, or other red flags specific to your clinic.
Staff don't have to listen to hours of voicemails to find the urgent case. The AI triages, and only truly urgent calls reach the provider.
Red flag calls escalated instantly
Thunderclap, new-onset, neuro symptoms routed to provider on-demand
Structured triage summary
All call details captured and ready for clinical review before escalation
Zero voicemail for urgent cases
High-risk presentations bypass queues and reach on-call providers directly
Configurable escalation rules
Your clinic defines which presentations trigger urgent routing
The AI is configured with clinical decision logic for your clinic: it listens for keywords and call patterns (thunderclap onset, duration, associated symptoms like vision changes or weakness, medication overuse, prior stroke or aneurysm history) and flags the call for escalation when thresholds are met.
The call is routed to your on-call provider's phone or urgent protocol number in real time. The patient stays on the line or is offered immediate callback. Your provider sees a structured summary of the call and can triage next steps—urgent in-person visit, ER referral, or other intervention.
The AI is trained to recognize patterns and red flags that warrant escalation to a clinician. The AI does not make a clinical diagnosis; it identifies presentations that need urgent provider review. A provider makes all clinical decisions.
The AI asks structured questions about onset, associated symptoms, and relevant history. If the patient's response matches red flag criteria (e.g., thunderclap, first migraine ever, neuro changes), escalation is triggered regardless of the patient's self-assessment. Providers always make the final triage decision.
Yes. You work with the MedReception team to configure red flag rules based on your protocols and patient population. You define which presentations constitute urgent escalation.
Yes. When an escalation-level call is detected, the AI immediately routes to your configured on-call provider's phone, pager, or urgent line, depending on your setup. The provider can then answer and take the call directly.
