Workflow
Migraine clinics spend staff time answering calls that are either acute (needing urgent evaluation) or routine (refills, follow-ups, new-patient scheduling). AI reception distinguishes call type instantly and routes accordingly.
Instead of answering every call to determine urgency, staff receive only calls that require clinical judgment. Routine scheduling is handled by the AI; appointments are booked and logged for staff visibility.
When a caller describes acute symptoms, the AI immediately flags the call and routes it to your on-call provider or urgent clinic line. Staff do not hunt through call logs to find urgent patients.
The AI asks new callers about migraine history, prior imaging, and current providers. This prevents overbooking acute slots with callers who may need a different specialist or workup first.
Whether a call results in an appointment or an urgent referral, the AI captures intent, symptoms, and patient demographics. Staff open a chart or escalation record with call context ready for review.
Acute calls routed instantly
No waiting; escalation flags sent to clinical staff immediately upon detection
Routine calls handled without staff involvement
Scheduling, refill requests, and recall management completed and logged
Call context captured for chart review
Appointment, patient record, and triage summary returned to staff; appointment bookings and demographics sync to EMR
Available around the clock
After-hours calls answered with same triage logic and escalation to on-call provider
The AI listens for words and phrases indicating severity and urgency: worst headache ever, sudden onset, vision loss, confusion, fever, neck stiffness, or any statement that this is different from the patient's usual migraine. Your practice defines which patterns trigger escalation.
Routine calls are handled by the AI without escalation. Refill requests are logged and sent to clinical staff; follow-up appointments are booked directly if they fit your schedule; recalls are noted. Staff receive a summary of all non-acute calls for batch review.
Yes. The AI asks new callers about migraine frequency, prior workup, and current symptoms to determine urgency and slot type. If it is an acute new-patient migraine, the AI can escalate or book an urgent slot. Non-urgent new patients are booked into standard evaluation slots with their intake summary prepared for staff review.
No. The AI uses triage logic only to classify the call; routine calls are routed to scheduling immediately and appointments are booked in real time. Callers know their appointment time before the call ends.
If the AI cannot confidently determine urgency, the call is escalated to a live staff member or nurse line for clinical judgment. Your practice defines the escalation threshold to balance safety and efficiency.
