Patient Intake

Capture migraine history, triggers, and treatment details before your clinical team picks up

Reduce intake call time and documentation burden by answering structured migraine questions through AI. Your staff receives complete, organized data ready for the chart.

How it pays back

Fewer calls back to the patient for missing details

By the time your nurse or doctor picks up, they have trigger history, medication list, and prior imaging already documented. No more 'let me ask you a few questions' delays.

Faster clinical decision-making

Your provider sees the complete intake picture—symptom pattern, medication history, and red flags—upfront. Reduces time spent hunting for context in prior visits or patient records.

Better documentation and compliance

Structured intake answers are organized and returned as a ready-to-review summary. Your staff reviews and files in seconds. Consistent, complete records reduce liability and improve care continuity.

AI captures frequency and type of acute medication use, helping your team spot potential medication overuse headache before your provider sees the patient.

Frequently asked questions

What specific migraine questions does the AI ask?

Questions cover: migraine onset (when did this episode start), location and character (throbbing, pressure, etc.), severity (1–10 scale), aura or other symptoms, current and prior medications taken, known triggers, frequency of headaches per month, and any prior imaging (MRI, CT). Your clinic can customize the question set.

How long does structured intake take on the phone?

Typically 3–5 minutes. The AI asks questions at a natural pace, allowing the patient to explain in their own words while capturing the key clinical details.

Can patients skip questions if they don't know the answer?

Yes. If a patient is unsure or in severe pain, they can say so and the AI moves on. Your clinical team will follow up on incomplete details. The goal is helpful context, not a perfect interrogation.

Does the migraine intake get auto-filed into my EHR as a clinical note?

No. The AI captures and returns a structured summary that your staff reviews on-screen. Your clinical team then files it into the patient chart according to your documentation standards. This ensures accuracy and compliance with your EMR's intake workflow.

How does this help with new migraine patients vs. established patients?

For new patients, intake creates a complete initial record of migraine history and current status, reducing first-visit documentation time. For established patients, it updates your team on any recent pattern changes or new medications that may not be in your system yet.

Can the AI detect medication overuse headache signals?

The AI captures frequency and type of acute migraine medication use, flagging patterns in the summary for your provider's review. Early detection helps your team intervene with preventive strategies.
