Onboarding

Capture comprehensive new patient intake in one call—no forms to mail, no waiting room delays.

AI receptionists ask intake questions while booking the appointment, capturing medical history, allergies, medications, and emergency contact in real time. Your staff review the structured summary before the patient arrives.

How it pays back

One conversation handles booking and intake

No separate form-submission step, no follow-up calls. New patient data is complete when the appointment is confirmed.

Chart is ready for the first visit

Clinician has medical history, allergies, and medications before the patient sits down—visit can start on time.

Emergency information is captured upfront

Allergies, medications, and red flags are flagged and available to your staff before the appointment.

Reduces waiting room time

No clipboard in the waiting room, no 10-minute delay while the patient fills out forms. They're ready to be seen.

Frequently asked questions

What if the patient doesn't have all their information during the call (insurance card, pharmacy details)?

The AI notes what's missing and your staff can follow up by email or text with a quick form link. The core intake (allergies, medical history, emergency contact) is captured; secondary details can be added before or after the visit.

Does this work for phone appointments or telehealth visits?

Yes. The intake is captured during the booking call regardless of visit type. Clinicians receive the same structured summary for virtual or in-person appointments.

How does the AI decide which intake questions to ask?

Your practice configures intake question templates by specialty and visit type. The AI asks the relevant questions for that patient's appointment reason.

What if a patient gives concerning medical information (severe allergy, active infection)?

The AI flags urgent information and escalates immediately to your staff. They can call the patient back, reschedule, or alert the clinician depending on severity and your practice protocols.
