Weight Loss & Metabolic Health

Stop losing weight loss patients to callback delays. Route urgent refill requests and side effect reports straight to your provider.

Weight loss practices field urgent calls about medication refills, side effects, and progress concerns during business hours and after-hours. MedReception AI answers every call, captures the reason, and routes callbacks by your rules: routine refills to staff, urgent medication concerns to your provider, and after-hours emergencies to on-call. Your team stays in control; the AI never makes clinical decisions.

How it pays back

Capture every callback request

Patients calling about refills, side effects, or progress concerns reach a real voice, not a queue or voicemail. Katie AI captures their reason and contact details, routes the call by your rules, and sends your staff a summary with everything needed to call back informed. No missed opportunities; no callbacks made blind.

Protect your on-call provider

Your practice sets the escalation rules. Routine refill requests go to staff; severe side effects (chest pain, severe nausea, allergic reaction) go straight to your on-call provider or clinic manager. The AI routes by your protocol, never guesses. You stay in charge of who gets paged and when.

Cover after-hours safely

Annie AI answers after-hours calls 24/7. If a caller reports a medical emergency, they reach your on-call provider or emergency contact per your setup. If they just need a refill reminder, they get a callback request logged and waiting for your team at opening. No after-hours calls slip through.

EMR-ready summaries, no chart clutter

Every call is returned as a structured summary: patient name, reason, symptoms, last refill date, current medications. Your staff reviews it, decides what goes in the chart, and files it. The AI captures; your clinicians decide. No autonomous chart changes, no guesswork.

Portable across EMRs

MedReception is custom-built per practice and EMR-independent. If you switch from one EHR to another, your AI receptionist stays with you. Your callback workflows, escalation rules, and templates move with you, no rebuild, no retraining.

Frequently asked questions

How does MedReception know when a callback request is urgent?

You set the rules. Your practice defines what triggers an urgent escalation: for example, reports of chest pain, severe nausea, or difficulty breathing go to your on-call provider immediately. Routine refill requests go to staff for a callback within your standard window. The AI routes by your protocol; it does not make clinical decisions.

What happens if a patient calls after hours asking for an urgent refill?

Annie AI answers the call, captures the reason and patient details, and follows your after-hours protocol. If the caller reports a medical emergency, they reach your on-call provider or emergency contact. If they need a routine refill, the call is logged as a callback request for your team at opening. You control the routing.

Do callback requests automatically go into our EMR?

Appointment bookings, new patient creation, and patient demographics (name, date of birth, phone) sync to your EMR. Callback request details, reason, symptoms, last refill date, current medications, are returned as a structured summary your staff reviews and files. Your team decides what goes in the chart; the AI does not write clinical notes.

Can we customize the intake questions for weight loss patients?

Yes. MedReception is custom-built per practice. Your intake includes questions relevant to weight loss: current weight, last visit date, current medications, refill requests, side effect reports, and progress concerns. We optimize the template during onboarding and offer free lifetime edits if your protocols change.

What if we use an EHR that is not on your integration list?

Katie still answers every call and captures the intake. Your staff enters the callback request and booking details into your EHR manually, or you can use the MedReception portal to manage pending callbacks. Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your EHR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours.
