How it pays back

Calls routed by clinical context, not just menu press

Voice AI understands dermatology skin conditions, orthopedic injury types, psychiatry medication concerns, and behavioral health crises. It routes each call type to the right staff—derm tech, clinical coordinator, therapist, nurse—not to a general queue.

Urgent clinical calls escalate without delay

Keywords like 'chest pain', 'can't breathe', 'suicidal', or 'severe bleeding' trigger immediate escalation to on-call staff. No hold time, no callback loop, no missed emergencies.

Prior auth and insurance questions don't bog down clinical staff

Voice AI captures insurance company, policy number, and prior auth request details as a structured summary. Your billing/admin staff gets the note and handles auth while clinical staff focuses on patient care.

Specialty-specific language and workflows out of the box

No need to configure from scratch. Voice AI comes pre-built for dermatology, orthopedics, psychiatry, pediatrics, and other specialties. Your team customizes on top of proven workflows.

Frequently asked questions

How does voice AI know my specialty's specific call types?

MedReception offers pre-configured templates for dermatology, orthopedics, psychiatry, pediatrics, ophthalmology, and other specialties. These templates recognize specialty-specific keywords (e.g., 'rash', 'broken bone', 'refill'), urgency cues, and call intents. You can customize further based on your practice's needs.

Can voice AI triage urgent mental health calls (suicidal ideation)?

Yes. Behavioral health voice AI recognizes crisis keywords and escalates to your on-call therapist or crisis line immediately. The caller's information is recorded and available to the clinician when they pick up.

How does voice AI handle medication refill requests?

Voice AI asks for patient name, DOB, medication name, and routing preference. The request is captured as a structured summary and sent to your nursing or clinical staff for review. They approve, deny, or request more info without the patient having to wait on hold.

Can I use different voice AI profiles for different specialties in my group?

Yes. Multi-specialty groups configure separate voice AI profiles per practice or per phone line. Dermatology calls route through the derm AI, orthopedics through the ortho AI, etc. Each team gets specialty-relevant triage and workflows.

Does voice AI understand prior authorization workflows?

Voice AI captures prior auth requests (patient name, insurance, procedure) as structured data and routes them to your billing/admin staff. The staff handles the actual authorization with the insurance company. AI ensures no prior auth request gets lost in voicemail.
