Workflow
Paper intake forms stay blank when they're not filled out ahead of time. AI receptionists capture intake verbally, return a structured summary, and your staff review it before check-in.
Paper forms often arrive incomplete, illegible, or not at all. Verbal intake on the call ensures completeness and accuracy, with a digital summary ready immediately.
Staff no longer transcribe handwritten forms into the chart. They review the AI-captured summary and file it. Dramatically faster than manual data entry.
Legible, structured capture is more accurate than handwriting. Follow-up questions by the AI clarify ambiguous or incomplete answers in real time.
Less paper printing, scanning, and storage. Your practice reduces paper use while improving data quality and compliance.
Intake captured on call
All routine questions answered verbally and structured into a digital summary
No transcription needed
Staff receive a clean, machine-generated summary—not handwritten notes to decipher
Summary ready for review
Structured intake summary is available before the patient arrives, ready for staff verification and filing
Compliance-ready recording
Every intake call is encrypted, timestamped, and available for audit
It's a structured text summary organized by section (allergies, medications, chief complaint, medical history, etc.), similar to your paper intake form but in digital format. Staff can review it and paste it into your EHR or file it for review.
Most do. A phone conversation feels more natural and personal than a form. Patients can provide context and nuance in their answers. And there's no waiting for them to fill out a form—the conversation happens in real time during the booking call.
Your practice can still provide a paper form at check-in as a backup or verification tool. But because the AI-captured intake is already complete and ready for review, the paper form is optional, not required.
The AI asks follow-up questions to clarify complex histories (prior surgeries, medication doses, allergy details). If the history is very complex, the summary flags it for staff to expand during the visit or through a follow-up call.
Yes. The intake form is configured based on your specialty and your preferences. You can add, remove, or reorder questions to match your workflow.
The recording is stored securely per HIPAA requirements and your retention policy. Staff can replay it if they need to verify a patient's response or check the exact wording of an answer.
