Patient Onboarding
New patients call to schedule. Instead of a 2-minute booking followed by a 10-minute form, voice AI captures name, date of birth, chief complaint, allergies, medications, insurance contact, and emergency contact in one conversation. Staff gets a pasteable summary; your EMR gets the appointment and demographics (name, DOB, phone, address).
Patient calls to schedule, completes intake during that call, receives confirmation of appointment and next steps. No scheduling call, no intake form, no second call to verify information. Done in 5–7 minutes.
By the time the new patient walks in, staff has reviewed the intake summary, checked insurance details, and flagged any red flags or missing info. The clinical visit can start on time and on topic.
AI captures insurance contact during the call. Your front desk can verify coverage and identify any missing documents before the patient sits down in the waiting room.
New patient hears their appointment time, provider name, and reason for visit repeated back. No ambiguity, no 'I thought I was seeing Dr. Smith but the chart says Dr. Garcia.' Patient arrives prepared.

Pasteable clinical summary
AI-generated intake note ready for staff review and chart filing
The AI captures information (chief complaint, history, allergies, meds) and returns it as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary. Your clinical staff reviews it, decides what goes in the official chart note, and files it. This preserves your clinical oversight and ensures accuracy.
The AI is trained to be warm and reassuring. If a patient says they prefer not to answer, the AI logs what they will share and offers a phone callback or in-person form. No pressure; the goal is comfortable, complete intake.
Yes. Insurance contact details are captured, encrypted, and stored in a secure intake summary. Staff manually verifies and files insurance information according to your workflow. This ensures insurance data remains in a separate, auditable process.
Yes. You can define the intake questionnaire: allergy screening, medication list, reason for visit, past medical history, smoking status, etc. The AI asks your questions in a conversational way, not a rigid script.
AI intake complements a portal; it doesn't replace it. Some new patients prefer to call and complete intake verbally. Others prefer to schedule online and fill out forms. The AI handles the phone path; your portal handles the web path. Both feed the EMR.
