Onboarding

New patient intake happens on the call with AI—no forms, no follow-up emails, no missing data at appointment time.

Gather new patient information—demographics, insurance, medical history, allergies—in a single conversational call. Name, DOB, and phone write to your EMR; medical and insurance details are captured as a structured summary for staff review.

How it pays back

Appointment Ready From Intake

When a new patient calls to schedule, intake happens immediately. Your EMR gets their name, DOB, and phone. Medical and insurance summaries are ready for your staff to review. By the time the patient arrives, you have a complete new-patient file.

No Pre-Appointment Friction

Many practices send new patients emails with links to pre-visit forms. Many forms go unfinished. With AI intake on the call, forms are done—no follow-up emails, no incomplete data, no patient frustration.

Insurance Verified Before Arrival

The AI captures insurance information during the call and returns it as a structured summary for your staff to verify. Your team can check coverage and alert the patient to copay or deductible before the appointment. No surprises at check-in.

Cleaner Data From Day One

Information is captured once, in real time, by the AI. No transcription errors, no blank fields, no 'I'll email that later.' New patients start with verified, clean records in your system.

New patient demographics written to EMR

Name, date of birth, phone number sync immediately to your EMR on booking

Insurance and medical summary captured

Structured data returned for staff review and filing—not auto-synced to chart

First-call intake completion

All new patient information collected in a single call; no follow-up forms required

Staff review before chart entry

Clinical and insurance data verified by human staff before entering patient record

Frequently asked questions

Does new patient information go into the EMR automatically?

Name, date of birth, and phone number write to your EMR automatically when the appointment is booked. Insurance and medical history are captured and returned as a structured summary for your staff to review and file into the patient chart.

What if a new patient is calling after hours?

The AI answers after-hours calls and can conduct full new-patient intake. Information is timestamped and waiting for your staff in the morning. Your team reviews it, verifies it, and enters it into the EMR before the appointment.

Can we still ask custom questions for new patients in specific specialties?

Yes. Intake flows are configured per practice or specialty. You can add allergy screening questions, surgery history, medication list details, or other information your specialty requires.

What happens if a new patient doesn't have insurance information ready?

The AI captures what the patient knows and flags missing information in the summary. Your staff can follow up before the appointment or ask at check-in. You maintain control of data collection.

Does this slow down the appointment booking process?

No. Intake and booking happen in the same call—it's one conversation. Patients answer intake questions, confirm their appointment time, and hang up. No additional steps, no extra calls.
