Scheduling
Stop manual callback lists and forgotten patients. MedReception automates callback queuing, schedules return calls based on urgency and staff availability, and tracks completion to ensure no patient falls through the cracks.
Every patient who called gets a callback—on time and from the right person. The callback is logged, tracked, and confirmed. If a callback is missed, it's flagged for immediate re-routing.
Urgent callbacks (postoperative complications, lab results, medication issues) are queued first. Routine follow-ups are scheduled around staff availability. Your team works through callbacks in clinical priority order, not random order.
Patients receive a text or email confirming they'll be called back at a specific time. No guessing, no anxiety. When the callback comes, the patient is prepared and receptive—appointment conversions improve.
Staff don't manually track callback lists or make reminder calls. The system manages the queue, alerts staff to upcoming callbacks, and provides full patient context (reason for visit, prior notes). Callbacks are efficient and documented.
Priority-sorted callback queue
Urgent and clinical callbacks prioritized; routine follow-ups scheduled around capacity
Automated patient confirmation
SMS and email reminders ensure patients are ready when staff calls
Closed-loop tracking
Every callback logged with date, time, outcome, and next action—nothing forgotten
Missed callback escalation
If a callback is not completed by the scheduled time, it's flagged for immediate re-routing
You define priority rules based on clinical urgency, time-sensitivity, and business need. For example: post-op complications get top priority, lab results get second priority, insurance questions get third. The AI queues callbacks in that order and suggests which staff member should call based on skill or familiarity.
Yes. When a patient calls, they can request a callback time. The AI confirms availability with your staff and sends the patient a text or email with the confirmed time. If the time slot is unavailable, it offers alternatives.
The system flags the missed callback immediately. Staff are notified to try again. If a callback is missed twice, it can be escalated to a manager or automatically re-queued for the next available time slot. All attempts are logged.
When a callback is logged and completed, the outcome is recorded as a structured summary available to your team. If the callback results in an appointment booking, that appointment is synced directly to your EMR. Staff notes and patient context are captured and presented to your team for review and filing in the clinical record.
Yes. You can use the callback queue for proactive recalls, appointment reminders, prescription refill outreach, and follow-up calls. The same priority sorting, scheduling, and tracking apply.
You can track callback volume, average wait time until callback, callback answer rate, callback-to-appointment conversion, and staff productivity by callback metrics. All data is available in your dashboard.
