Integration
Medical practices often ask what a voice AI records to the EHR. Learn which fields auto-populate, which require manual filing, and why the distinction matters for compliance and workflow.
When the AI books an appointment on the call, it writes directly to your EMR calendar. No staff member has to re-enter the same data. This saves front-desk time and eliminates the most common data-entry errors.
Symptoms, allergies, and medication lists are captured as a structured summary and returned to your team. Your provider reads it, not a script. This keeps your clinical documentation accurate and your liability clear.
The AI collects insurance details and photo ID during the call and stores them in the MedReception portal for your billing team. They're not buried in the EMR; they're in a workflow your staff controls.
Every call is logged with timestamp, caller identity, EMR sync status, and staff actions. If a question arises about what the AI captured or what staff filed, the record is there.
Named EMR connectors
Native integrations with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Epic, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, AdvancedMD, ModMed — appointments and demographics write directly on call
Structured intake capture
Chief complaint, symptoms, caller intent, and insurance details returned as timestamped summary for staff review and filing
Zero clinical auto-population
Allergies, medications, and clinical notes remain staff-authored to maintain chart accuracy and compliance
Call recording with consent
HIPAA-compliant storage, access logs, and retention policy separate from EHR — linkable for reference but not embedded
No. The AI captures the caller's description of their history and returns it as a structured summary for your staff. Your provider or nurse reviews it before it goes in the chart. This keeps you HIPAA-compliant and ensures the clinical record is accurate.
Yes, if you use a supported EMR with a native connector. The AI writes the appointment to your calendar in real time. If you use an EMR without a native connector, the appointment is captured and can be integrated via API or manual handoff.
It's captured on the call and stored in the MedReception portal for your billing staff to review and file. It does not auto-populate into the EMR chart because insurance is a business transaction, not clinical data. Your billing team controls when and how it's recorded in your system.
Ask the vendor for a field-mapping document. It will list which fields the AI reads and writes — usually appointment date/time, patient name, DOB, phone, and clinical intake fields your staff define. Avoid vendors who can't show you this upfront.
No — and you shouldn't let it. Clinical notes must be authored by a licensed provider. The AI returns a structured summary (chief complaint, symptoms, timeline, vitals if collected) that your staff pastes into the chart template. Your provider reviews it before signing.
Your staff sees it in the structured summary before it goes in the chart. You can correct it, delete it, or ask the AI for clarification. The call recording is available for reference. This is why staff review is essential — not as a bottleneck, but as a safety control.
