Workflow
Pain procedure booking requires detailed pre-visit coordination—imaging review, medication adjustments, NPO status, and consent verification. AI intake captures these requirements during scheduling so staff confirm rather than chase down missing information.
Instead of sending a checklist after the patient hangs up, the AI asks key pre-procedure questions during booking: imaging location, anticoagulation status, allergies to contrast, recent labs. Your staff reviews the structured summary, confirms the information, and sends a pre-visit summary with no back-and-forth.
Patients on warfarin or NSAIDs are identified immediately. Your clinical staff gets a summary that flags medication adjustments needed, so they can call the patient or primary care to coordinate hold dates before the procedure day.
Patients tell the AI where their recent imaging is from, what it shows, and when it was done. Staff can request records or order new imaging if needed—all documented and ready for the provider to review pre-procedure.
Patients arrive prepared: NPO status confirmed, medications adjusted, labs ordered if needed, consent reviewed. Clear expectations set during booking improve appointment readiness.
Pre-procedure checklist captured
Imaging, medications, allergies, and NPO status logged during scheduling
Medication holds identified
Warfarin, DOAC, and NSAID patients flagged for clinical review
New patient setup started
Demographics and insurance entered during call; staff confirm and file
Clinical questions routed
Complex pre-op concerns escalated to provider; routine bookings auto-confirm
The system is configured with procedure-specific protocols. A lumbar epidural steroid injection has different requirements (anticoagulation status, recent imaging) than a joint injection or radiofrequency ablation. The AI asks the relevant questions based on the procedure selected during booking.
The AI notes the gap and flags it for staff follow-up. Your clinical coordinator can call the patient to get details, or request records from likely facilities. The appointment is still booked, but the missing imaging is marked as a pre-visit task.
The AI captures medication names and doses on the call, then tells the patient: 'Your care team will call you within 24 hours to discuss how to adjust your blood thinner before your procedure.' A clinician or nurse coordinator then calls to confirm hold dates. This keeps medication decisions with your clinical team, not the AI.
The AI confirms the patient understands the procedure name and general approach, and that they have no new questions. A full informed consent is reviewed by clinical staff or the provider during the pre-procedure call or at check-in. The AI summary flags whether consent conversation happened or is still pending.
Routine bookings with no red flags auto-confirm and sync to your EHR and calendar. Bookings that need clinical review (missing imaging, medication questions, new patient with complex history) are held pending staff approval. This keeps your schedule accurate without manual entry.
