Frequently asked questions

Is the AI receptionist call recording HIPAA-compliant?

Yes. All call recordings are encrypted, stored in HIPAA-certified data centers, and access-controlled. Recordings are retained according to your practice's policy and then securely deleted.

What encryption is used between the AI receptionist and ModMed?

Data is transmitted via encrypted SFTP or ModMed's OAuth 2.0 API with TLS 1.2 or higher. Appointment bookings and patient demographics are encrypted in flight and at rest.

Can I see who accessed what call recordings or data?

Yes. The AI receptionist logs all access to call recordings, summaries, and ModMed sync confirmations by user, timestamp, and action. Export logs for your compliance audit.

Do I need to sign a separate BAA with the AI vendor?

The AI vendor is a HIPAA-compliant subprocessor and will sign or extend your BAA if needed. Most practices are already covered under the vendor's standard HIPAA addendum.

What happens to call recordings after the appointment is booked?

Recordings are retained in secure storage per your policy (e.g., 90 days, 6 months, 1 year). After retention expires, they are cryptographically shredded. Your staff can extend retention for specific calls if needed.
