Patient Intake

New migraine patients complete intake on their first call—medical history, triggers, current treatments, family history—ready for the neurologist to review

AI intake for new migraine patients: calls capture comprehensive headache history, medication list, family history, and trigger tracking on the phone. Structured summary ready for clinical review before the first visit.

How it pays back

First visit is clinically focused, not intake-focused

Your neurologist doesn't spend 15 minutes filling out forms. The intake is complete before the patient walks in. The visit can dive into examination, discussion, and treatment planning.

Trigger patterns and medication history are already organized

The AI structures the patient's migraine history chronologically and by symptom pattern. Your clinician can see what's been tried, what worked, and what the patient's own observations are about triggers.

New patients arrive prepared with context

Patients who invest in intake on the phone feel heard and informed. They arrive with a sense of the visit's structure and know what to expect.

Follow-up medications and referrals are faster

You already have prior medications, dosing, and any allergies or contraindications documented. Prescription refills and medication adjustments are streamlined.

Comprehensive intake captured on the call

Medical history, triggers, medications, family history, and comorbidities documented

Structured summary delivered before the visit

Neurologist reviews organized intake data, not raw notes or voicemail

Demographics and chief complaint synced to EMR

New patient record created with initial visit reason and appointment confirmed

Insurance and contact info verified on the call

Staff receives confirmed details ready for billing and follow-up

Frequently asked questions

How long does the new patient intake call take?

Typically 8–12 minutes. The AI asks open-ended questions and follows branching logic: for example, if a patient mentions medication use, it asks for specific details. The conversation feels natural, not like a checklist.

Does the intake summary go directly into the patient chart?

No. The AI returns a structured, EMR-pasteable summary—typically a few paragraphs organized by chief complaint, history, medications, and triggers. Your clinical staff reviews this summary, adds any notes, and files it into the chart. New patient demographics, date of birth, phone, and appointment details are synced automatically to the EMR; medical history, allergies, medications, and clinical content are captured in the structured summary for your staff to review and file.

What if a new patient is calling during an acute migraine?

The system detects acute presentations and offers a shortened triage call: pain level, current medications, and escalation if needed. A full intake can be completed on a second call or during the first visit. Your clinic can choose the protocol.

Can the intake capture medication allergies and contraindications?

Yes. The AI asks about drug allergies and adverse reactions. This information is included in the structured summary and flagged for staff so they see it immediately when creating the new patient record.

What if the new patient doesn't know details about past medications or family history?

The AI gracefully handles 'I don't remember' or 'I'm not sure.' It notes gaps and flags them in the summary so your neurologist knows to ask follow-up questions during the visit.
