Scheduling

Book urgent and routine migraine slots directly from incoming calls—no staff handoff, no lost callers

Migraine patients who call for acute care expect fast slots. AI reception books appointments into your EMR in real time, converting callers to booked visits without manual scheduling labor or caller abandonment.

How it pays back

No more callers transferring between staff to find an open slot

AI reception checks your EMR availability in real time and offers the patient a specific time. No transfers, no hold times, no callbacks. The call ends with a booked appointment and a confirmation text.

Eliminates the back-and-forth of 'call us back if you need urgent care'

Migraine patients calling for acute appointments don't want to be told to call back. AI reception secures a same-day or next-available slot during the call, reducing caller frustration and no-shows.

New patients added to your EMR without manual entry

If the caller is not in your system, AI reception captures name, date of birth, phone, and email. A new patient record is created and the appointment is booked—your staff focuses on chart prep, not data entry.

Migraine intake captured and summarized for staff review

During booking, the AI captures complaint (acute migraine vs. preventive consultation), medication list, allergy status, and severity. Your clinical staff reviews the structured summary and files it into the chart, shortening chair time.

Frequently asked questions

How does AI reception know which appointment slots are available in real time?

AI reception integrates directly with your EMR (eClinicalWorks, Athena, AdvancedMD, Epic, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, Sallie, ModMed, and others) and queries availability based on provider schedule, patient insurance, and visit type. It offers slots that are genuinely open.

What if the patient wants to reschedule or has questions about the appointment after booking?

The confirmation text or email includes your clinic's phone number and online portal link. Patients can call back for changes, or staff can manage reschedules in your normal workflow.

Does AI reception check insurance eligibility before booking?

Yes. It checks whether the patient's insurance is active and in-network before offering a slot. If eligibility is uncertain, the summary is flagged for your staff to verify and contact the patient if needed.

Can we set urgent migraine slots as 'AI booking only' or require staff approval?

Both options are available. Some clinics allow AI to book routine follow-ups freely and route acute calls for staff review. Others let AI book all slots. You control the rules.

What happens if the patient is a no-show after AI booked the slot?

The appointment appears in your EMR as booked. Your existing reminder workflows (SMS, email, phone) apply. AI reception can also send reminders if configured.
