Hybrid Care
Migraine patients often need flexible care: telehealth for acute exacerbations or medication adjustments, in-person for complex cases or new patient workups. AI reception captures appointment preferences, offers both options, and books the right appointment type directly into your schedule.

Telehealth slots often open up sooner than in-person visits. Migraine patients with medication questions or exacerbations can be seen via telehealth within days instead of weeks for an in-person appointment.
Clinicians can see telehealth patients during gaps in their in-person schedule. Same provider availability, more patient throughput.
AI intake captures appointment needs and preferences. New patients with complex migraine patterns are offered in-person; established patients seeking refills or med adjustments get telehealth.
Patient chooses telehealth or in-person on the call, and the appointment is booked. Your staff doesn't follow up for confirmation or scheduling details.

Flexible modality increases access
Patients can choose the care model that fits their immediate need
Your clinic defines guidelines. Common triggers: new patients are offered in-person initial workup; established patients with straightforward concerns (med refill, side effect question, follow-up after imaging) are offered telehealth first. If the patient prefers in-person or if the AI detects complexity during the call, in-person is offered.
Yes. Your staff can modify the appointment type if needed. But most patients confirm the modality they select during the booking call.
Yes. The appointment is flagged as telehealth in your EMR. Your clinician connects via your existing telehealth platform (Zoom, Teladoc, etc.), and the encounter is documented in the patient's chart. All clinical workflow remains the same.
The AI captures urgency during the call. If same-day telehealth is available, it's offered. If not, the call is escalated to your on-call provider or an urgent in-person slot is offered.
You manage telehealth availability in your EMR just like in-person slots. AI reception reads available appointments (in-person and telehealth) and offers both to patients. Your clinicians see the modality flag and prepare accordingly.
