Migraine Care

AI receptionist confirms migraine appointments on the day of visit and identifies patients likely to miss — enabling staff to proactively reschedule or follow up

Migraine patients often cancel or no-show due to an acute attack or medication side effects. AI confirmation calls identify no-show risk early and capture last-minute cancellations before your provider sits empty.

How it pays back

Identify no-show risk before the appointment slot is lost

Pre-appointment confirmation calls reveal patients experiencing an acute attack or medication issues. Your staff can proactively offer rescheduling, freeing the slot for another patient instead of losing revenue to a no-show.

Same-day cancellation captured instantly

Patients can cancel via the confirmation call, not a text or missed call. Your staff see the cancellation in real time and can fill the slot with a waitlist patient.

Patient barrier inventory for your team

Confirmation calls reveal obstacles: patient is in an acute attack, transportation issue, medication side effects, or anxiety about visit. Your clinical team uses this data to support retention and improve care.

Chair utilization improved

Fewer last-minute no-shows means your providers see more scheduled patients and fewer empty slots. Chair time becomes productive time.

Reduced administrative rework

Your staff don't spend time chasing no-shows or rescheduling from a blank phone line. Rescheduling happens during the confirmation call when patient contact is live.

No-show risk identification

Patients flagged for acute attack or barrier to attendance during call

Same-day cancellation capture

Cancellations logged in real time, not discovered when provider arrives

On-call rescheduling enabled

Alternative appointment times offered and booked during confirmation call

Frequently asked questions

When does the AI make the pre-appointment confirmation call?

Standard protocol is 24 hours before the scheduled appointment. Your clinic can adjust this to 48 hours or same-day, depending on your preference and patient volume.

What does the AI ask during a confirmation call?

The AI confirms the appointment time and location, asks if the patient plans to attend, inquires about current migraine status or barriers to attending, and offers to reschedule if needed. The call is brief (2-3 minutes) and focused on confirmation, not clinical assessment.

What if the patient is in an acute migraine during the confirmation call?

The AI offers to reschedule the appointment to a later date when the patient is well. The original slot is freed for another patient. Your clinical team can also follow up with the patient after the acute episode to check on medication needs and rescheduling preference.

Can the AI reschedule appointments during the confirmation call?

Yes. If the patient can't attend, the AI can offer available alternative times and book them immediately. Your schedule is updated in real time, and a confirmation text or email is sent to the patient.

What happens if the AI can't reach a patient during the confirmation call?

A voicemail is left confirming the appointment and asking the patient to confirm or call back to reschedule. If the patient doesn't respond by a set time (e.g., 2 hours before appointment), the appointment can be marked at-risk for your staff to contact or left open for a waitlist patient.
