Triage
Voice AI answers after-hours calls, detects red flags, and escalates urgent calls to on-call staff in real time. Learn how conversational AI handles nights and weekends while keeping your on-call team informed.
Red flag calls (chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe bleeding) trigger immediate alerts to on-call staff. Your clinician is notified within seconds and can receive call context before answering.
Appointment requests, billing questions, and non-urgent messages are triaged, scheduled for callback, or routed to urgent care. On-call staff only get woken for actual emergencies.
Voice AI confirms receipt of after-hours calls, explains triage process, and sets callback expectations. Patients don't wonder if anyone got their message.
Every after-hours call follows the same escalation rules. No variation based on who's answering. Clinical questions are escalated, urgent calls are escalated, routine calls are scheduled.
Red flag detection in real time
Chest pain, difficulty breathing, trauma, and other urgent keywords trigger immediate escalation
On-call alerts with patient context
Your clinician receives call details, patient history, and chief complaint before answering
Routine calls triaged without waking staff
Appointment requests and non-urgent messages are scheduled or routed automatically
Configurable escalation protocols
Your practice defines what triggers escalation to on-call, urgent care, or emergency services
Voice AI listens for clinical red flags—chest pain, difficulty breathing, severe bleeding, allergic reactions, trauma, and other high-risk symptoms. Your practice can customize the urgency triggers. If any flag is detected, the AI escalates immediately.
Your on-call staff receives an alert but can assess the call themselves. Over time, your practice can refine escalation triggers to reduce false positives. The goal is to err on the side of caution—a false alert is better than a missed emergency.
Yes. For non-urgent calls, the AI can capture the caller's issue and preferred callback time, then schedule a slot in your next-day calendar or route to an urgent care facility if needed. Your staff reviews and confirms the next day.
Alerts are sent via phone call, text, or push notification—your practice chooses. The alert includes the caller's name, reason for call, and urgent keywords detected. Your on-call clinician can then receive the call transfer or handle callback.
Yes. For life-threatening emergencies, voice AI can route the call directly to 911 and alert your on-call staff simultaneously. Your practice configures which scenarios trigger immediate 911 transfer.
