Workflow
Interventional pain practices depend on referrals from orthopedic, primary care, and surgical offices. AI intake captures diagnosis, imaging, and prior treatments in a structured format, allowing clinical staff to fast-track appropriate candidates and file prior authorizations without callback delays.
Insurance details and diagnosis are captured on the booking call. Your staff file requests immediately, reducing delays and improving first-visit completion rate.
Referring provider's notes, imaging reports, and prior treatment history are documented in the booking summary. No time wasted on repeat history-taking during the consult.
When the AI confirms insurance coverage and procedure appropriateness during booking, patients are less likely to cancel after learning about out-of-pocket costs or finding out they need surgery instead.
Orthopedic and primary care offices see that referrals are booked and pre-authorized quickly. They refer more patients because they trust your practice handles handoffs smoothly.
Referral source and diagnosis captured
Referring provider, patient's primary diagnosis, and imaging findings recorded during intake
Insurance and pre-auth details documented
Coverage and authorization requirements captured and returned to staff for same-day filing
Referral appropriateness flagged
System notes whether patient fits your clinic's scope or needs surgical evaluation
New patient details available for first appointment
Demographics, referral history, and clinical summary provided to staff before arrival
The AI asks for the referring provider's name and office, primary diagnosis (e.g., lumbar radiculopathy, facet arthropathy), imaging type and date, and what conservative treatments have been tried. This allows your clinician to prepare and decide on next steps.
The AI can flag red flags (e.g., cauda equina symptoms, progressive neurological deficit) in the intake summary. Your clinical staff review and may recommend surgical evaluation if appropriate. The AI does not make the clinical decision.
The AI asks about insurance carrier and policy number during booking. Details are captured and returned to your staff as a structured summary, who then verify coverage and file prior authorizations. Staff review the insurance information and document it appropriately.
Your staff see the authorization requirement in the booking summary. They file the request immediately, and the patient is notified of the timeline. If authorization is delayed, the appointment can be rescheduled or held pending approval.
