Revenue Protection
Medical practices lose revenue every time a call goes unanswered. Learn how round-the-clock AI reception captures every patient opportunity, even after hours.
Patients who reach a live voice or successfully book an appointment are far more likely to show up and pay. When calls ring unanswered, that patient often calls a competing practice instead. AI reception ensures no opportunity is lost, whether the call comes at 2 PM or 2 AM.
Rotating on-call schedules exhaust small teams. AI answers and triages after-hours calls, escalating only genuinely urgent issues to your staff. Your team sleeps; the AI works.
AI captures caller name, date of birth, phone, and reason for call on the first call. Staff receive a structured summary—not a messy voicemail—and chart review takes seconds instead of minutes.
Every call answered
Day or night, no voicemail dead ends
New patient intake automated
Demographics and booking written directly to EMR
Urgent calls escalated
Same-call handoff to on-call provider or clinical staff
EMR-independent and portable
Named integrations with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, AdvancedMD, ModMed—switch EMRs, keep your AI
The AI receptionist answers immediately, performs basic intake, and determines urgency. If the call is non-urgent (appointment request, refill question, general inquiry), the AI captures details and schedules or logs a callback for next business day. If urgent (chest pain, severe allergic reaction), the call is transferred to your on-call provider or emergency service right away.
No. The AI captures caller information—name, DOB, phone, and reason for call—and returns it as a structured summary for your staff to review and file. Clinical documentation (chief complaint, assessment, plan) remains your responsibility. The AI does write appointment bookings, new patient demographics, and contact info directly to the EMR.
The AI integrates with named EHR platforms including athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, AdvancedMD, and ModMed. When a new patient books, their name, DOB, and phone number are written to your EMR automatically. When an existing patient calls, their chart is pulled up so the AI can reference allergies, prior visits, and active medications.
You can configure the AI to route after-hours calls to an external answering service instead, or to voicemail. Many practices find 24/7 AI advantageous because patients prefer reaching a live system to leaving a voicemail, and urgent issues get flagged in real time.
