Retention
No-shows disrupt clinic schedules and mean fewer patients get the care they need. MedReception confirms migraine appointments by phone, identifies last-minute cancellations, and offers immediate rescheduling—keeping your schedule full and your patients engaged.
By confirming 24 hours ahead, you catch patients who forgot or had a change in plans. Open slots are quickly filled with other patients who need migraine care, rather than sitting empty.
When a patient cancels on the confirmation call, the AI offers available appointment times and books them on the spot—no phone tag, no 'I'll call you back' delays.
The AI captures cancellation reasons (transportation, symptom change, work conflict). Your clinical team can then identify barriers and offer solutions (telehealth for homebound patients, earlier morning slots for working patients).
A full schedule means more patients seen per clinician per week. Consistent appointment confirmations help practices optimize capacity and patient access.
No more manual confirmation phone calls eating into front-desk time. The AI handles the volume; your staff receives a report of confirmations and reschedules.

By default, confirmation calls go out 24 hours before the scheduled appointment. You can adjust this window (e.g., 48 hours or 12 hours) based on your practice protocol.
The AI checks your real-time availability and offers open slots. If the patient accepts, the new appointment is booked immediately and the updated appointment details are written to your EMR. A cancellation alert is sent to your staff so the original slot can be released.
Yes. If a patient is uncertain, the AI flags this for staff follow-up. Your team can call the patient directly to assess whether they'll attend or prefer to reschedule.
No. The confirmation call focuses on attendance and rescheduling. Any symptom updates or clinical changes are captured during the clinical appointment itself or through a separate clinical call, not during the confirmation workflow.
The system can leave a professional voicemail and/or send an SMS reminder, depending on your preference. If the patient never responds and misses the appointment, your staff is alerted so they can follow up.
The confirmation system reads your EMR's real-time schedule and books reschedules into open slots. Updated appointment details are written back to your system. No manual schedule updates needed.
