Intake

Capture migraine history, trigger patterns, and current medications during phone intake

AI asks targeted questions about migraine type, frequency, triggers, preventive and abortive meds, and prior treatment responses. Structured summary is returned for staff review and EMR filing.

How it pays back

Consistent, thorough intake every call

AI follows your clinic protocol for migraine history. No rushed questions, no skipped steps. Every patient gets the same depth of history-taking.

Trigger and medication data ready for provider

Provider does not re-ask 'When did this start?' or 'What meds have you tried?' — intake summary is organized by category for staff review and filing.

Faster new-patient visits

Providers spend less time on history and more on exam, treatment planning, and patient education in the appointment.

Better decision-making on first contact

For phone-only visits or triage calls, AI-gathered history gives clinician enough context to recommend next steps without callback.

Structured intake

Migraine frequency, triggers, medication history, functional impact in one call

Allergy and contraindication screening

Medication safety questions asked before provider reviews

EMR-ready summary

Organized intake fields structured for provider review and chart entry

Consistent protocol

Every new patient asked the same core questions in the same order

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI ask the same intake questions for every migraine patient?

Yes, the AI follows your clinic's migraine intake protocol. Customizable question branches allow the AI to adapt based on patient responses—e.g., deeper trigger questions for frequent migraineurs, simpler history for suspected new-onset migraine.

What happens if a patient doesn't know their preventive medication names?

The AI can ask for description (color, shape, what it's for), pill bottle info, or pharmacy name. It captures whatever the patient knows and flags unclear entries for staff to verify before the appointment.

How is the intake summary used?

The structured summary is returned to your staff as a text document or formatted note. Providers can review and copy/paste into the EMR, or staff can file it as a call encounter. Staff reviews and files the data; it does not auto-populate the chart.

Can the AI detect if a patient's migraine pattern has changed?

The AI captures current frequency and character. If the patient reports a new change ('I've never had an aura before'), the AI highlights that. Interpretation (red flag vs. normal variation) is left to the provider.

Is there a limit to how many questions the AI can ask?

No strict limit, but longer calls may bore or frustrate patients. Most clinics aim for 5–10 minutes of intake; the AI adapts pacing and branches to fit your protocol and patient tolerance.
