Workflow
Peak call hours—lunch, early morning, end-of-day—overwhelm front-desk staff and drive callers away. AI overflow handling captures appointments and intake while staff focus on check-ins and billing.
Every caller reaches a live responder immediately, even if your team is at capacity. No hold times, no busy signals.
AI completes appointment scheduling and new patient intake while the caller is on the line, eliminating back-and-forth voicemail tag.
Front-desk can focus on check-in, billing inquiries, and complex requests while AI handles high-volume routine calls.
Your practice can handle increased inbound call volume without hiring additional staff—cost structure stays flat as volume grows.
Calls answered in real time
During peak hours, every inbound call reaches a live voice without queue or hold
New patient intake captured live
Demographics and appointment details are booked directly to your EMR; questionnaire answers and medical history returned as structured summary for staff review
Appointment slot management integrated
Available slots checked and booked against your EMR calendar in real time
Callback requests prioritized
Urgent callbacks flagged for immediate staff attention; routine follow-ups queued for business hours
AI triage asks qualifying questions on intake: reason for visit, whether the issue is new or follow-up, and whether the caller reports acute symptoms or safety concerns. Urgent calls are flagged and escalated immediately; routine bookings proceed on the call.
AI checks real-time availability in your EMR before offering slots. Double-booking is prevented by integration with your calendar system. If all slots are full, AI can add the caller to a waitlist or offer the next available opening.
AI completes routine appointments on the call. For callback requests (complex questions, clinical callbacks), AI notifies staff of the request and prioritizes it in the queue. Staff call back during business hours, but the appointment is already booked and intake is already captured.
Yes. You configure which call types (new patients, appointment changes, refills) AI handles autonomously, and which (urgent care, complex billing) transfer to staff immediately. The system learns your preferences over time.
No. AI call handling is HIPAA-compliant by design. All captured data (names, phone numbers, appointment details) are encrypted and stored securely. Appointment bookings and patient demographics write directly to your EMR; clinical details, questionnaire answers, and medical history are returned as structured, EMR-pasteable summaries for staff to review and file, so clinicians retain full control over chart entry.
