Neurology

Every callback request captured, triaged, and routed, no neurology patient left in limbo

Neurology practices field urgent follow-ups, medication refill requests, and post-procedure check-ins across multiple time zones and clinic hours. MedReception AI answers every callback request instantly, triages by clinical urgency, captures structured intake, and routes to the right clinician or staff member, eliminating dropped callbacks and lost revenue.

How it pays back

No callback request falls through the cracks

Patients calling to report new symptoms, request medication refills, or follow up on imaging results reach a live responder immediately. The AI captures the reason for the callback, patient details, and urgency level in one call. Your staff reviews the structured summary and routes it to the right clinician, no voicemail tag, no lost message, no repeat call.

Urgent callbacks escalate in minutes, not hours

Your practice sets escalation rules: callbacks mentioning stroke symptoms, new seizure activity, or medication side effects trigger immediate routing to clinical staff or emergency services. The AI never makes a clinical judgment, it follows your protocol and escalates according to the keywords and urgency flags you define.

Callback intake is structured and EMR-ready

The AI gathers patient name, phone, reason for callback, medication list, symptom details, and appointment history during the call. That data is returned as a clean, timestamped summary your staff can review, add notes to, and file into the patient record. Appointment bookings and new patient demographics write directly to your EMR; clinical context is captured in the summary for your team to validate and document.

Your team owns the workflow, edits and optimization are free, forever

Every practice's callback workflow is different: some route by neurologist, some by urgency, some by symptom type. MedReception is custom-built for your practice during onboarding, and your team can adjust templates, escalation rules, and routing logic anytime. We provide white-glove support and free lifetime edits, no per-change fees, no frozen configurations.

Frequently asked questions

How does MedReception handle a callback request that needs urgent escalation?

You define escalation rules during setup: keywords like 'stroke', 'seizure', 'severe headache', or 'medication side effect' trigger immediate routing to clinical staff or emergency services. The AI never diagnoses or makes clinical decisions, it follows your protocol, captures the caller's details, and routes the call or summary to the right person in minutes.

Can the AI book a callback appointment directly into our schedule?

Yes. If the caller requests an appointment and your schedule has availability, the AI can book it directly and send confirmation to the patient. For complex requests (urgent same-day, specific neurologist, pre-op prep needed), the AI routes to your staff with full context so they can handle the booking and any special instructions.

What happens to the patient information captured during the callback?

The AI captures name, phone, reason for callback, symptom details, medication list, and appointment history as a structured summary. New patient demographics and appointment bookings write to your EMR automatically. Clinical details (symptoms, history, concerns) are returned as a timestamped summary for your staff to review, add notes to, and file into the patient record. Your team validates and documents all clinical data.

Does MedReception integrate with our neurology EMR?

MedReception integrates with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, and Nextech. If you use a different EHR, Katie still answers every callback, captures intake, and handles booking requests your staff enters. Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your EHR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours.

How long does it take to launch callback handling for our practice?

Launch takes about one week from signup. Your EHR connection and practice phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering your number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. During onboarding, our team builds your callback templates, escalation rules, and routing logic so your practice is ready to go live.
