Appointment Booking and Patient Intake for PT and Rehabilitation Clinics

Automated appointment booking and intake for physical therapy practices. Capture injury details, insurance, and referral information while syncing appointments to your scheduling system.

How it pays back

Streamline Intake for Injury Cases

Detailed information about mechanism of injury, affected body part, symptom timeline, and functional limitations is captured on the first call and summarized for the PT before evaluation, enabling better planning.

Identify Insurance and Referral Requirements Early

Insurance carrier, employer information, and physician referral status are captured during booking. Non-compliant cases are flagged for staff to resolve before the patient arrives.

Reduce Administrative Burden on Clinicians

Therapists focus on patient care, not scheduling calls. AI handles routine appointment requests, cancellations, and rescheduling, so your clinical team stays in treatment mode.

Frequently asked questions

What information does the AI collect for a PT intake?

Patient name, date of birth, contact info, insurance details, physician name (if referred), injury location and mechanism, symptom onset date, current functional limitations, and relevant medical history. This is returned as a structured summary for the PT to review before evaluation.

How does it handle workers' compensation claims?

The AI asks whether the injury is work-related and, if so, captures employer name, workers' comp carrier, and claim number. This information is flagged in the intake summary so staff can verify coverage before the first visit.

Can it integrate with PT software like TheraNest or PT Anywhere?

MedReception integrates with 13+ EMR and practice management systems. During setup, we configure your PT software so appointments, new patient records, and demographics sync automatically.

Does it handle physician referral verification?

The system captures the referring physician's name and specialty during booking. Your staff reviews the referral details from the structured intake summary and ensures the referral is on file before the first appointment.

How does this reduce no-shows for PT?

Accurate appointment booking with confirmed patient details enables your office to send appointment reminders. Clear scheduling and instant confirmation reduce missed sessions.
