Intake
Every new patient call returns one structured intake summary. This is a walk through what it contains, which fields have already reached the EMR and which have not, where ID and insurance images land, and the review-and-file routine your staff run before the visit.
Every intake summary reads the same way, so reviewing one takes seconds rather than hunting through a transcript. New front-desk hires learn the format on their first day instead of learning one caller's handwriting at a time.
The summary separates what already synced from what is waiting on verification. Staff stop guessing whether the demographics were entered and go straight to the fields that actually need their attention — insurance, images, and clinical content.
Confirming details back to the caller catches a misheard spelling or digit while it is still easy to fix. Summaries arrive already checked by the person they describe, which is the cheapest possible moment to catch an error.
When the summary is reviewed and filed ahead of the visit, the patient arrives to a chart that already holds their history and medications. The front desk confirms rather than collects, and the clipboard stops being part of the visit.
New patient data captured on call

Intake and scheduling happen in one call, no follow-up needed
Name, date of birth, phone, address, email, insurance carrier, policy number, group number, employer, emergency contact, chief complaint, relevant medical history, current medications, allergies, and reason for visit — organized as one structured record for staff to review and file in the EMR.
Appointment bookings, new patient creation, and core demographics (name, date of birth, phone, address) are written to the EMR. Insurance details, photo ID, and license images are captured and delivered to the MedReception portal for staff to attach. Clinical content — chief complaint, history, medications, allergies — is summary only, never auto-filed.
During the call the AI can ask the patient to photograph their ID and insurance card and upload them through a secure portal link sent by SMS or email. A staff member attaches the images to the record. Patients who prefer to bring originals can have them scanned at the visit instead.
Most practices give demographics and insurance verification to the front desk or a registration coordinator, and give the clinical section to a nurse or medical assistant. What matters is that both halves have a named owner and a time of day, because an unowned queue is how a summary reaches the visit unreviewed.
The appointment and demographics are already in the EMR, so the visit still happens on a real chart. The unreviewed part is the clinical section and the insurance verification, which then get handled at check-in the way they would have been without intake. The record waits in the portal; it is not discarded.
Yes — the summary reflects the questions you ask. Detailed medical history can be expanded or shortened according to your practice's protocol, and intake questions are configured per provider or specialty, so the sections you care about are the sections that come back filled in.
