Overflow Coverage
Sleep medicine practices field calls around the clock: CPAP troubleshooting, refill requests, urgent breathing concerns. When your team can't pick up, voicemails pile up and callbacks slip through the cracks. MedReception's after-hours AI answers every call instantly, captures voicemails with full context, and routes them to your staff as structured, actionable summaries. No missed sleep emergencies. No forgotten callbacks.

Voicemails don't vanish into your general inbox. Every message is captured, timestamped, and assigned to your team as a callback task with full patient context. Your staff sees exactly what the patient called about and can prioritize sleep emergencies first.
Annie knows your specialty. She asks about CPAP compliance, mask fit, pressure settings, and sleep quality during after-hours calls. The summary your team receives is sleep-medicine-ready, not generic. No re-asking the patient tomorrow.
You set the rules. Calls mentioning breathing trouble, chest pain, or severe apnea symptoms are escalated to your on-call clinician immediately. Routine refill requests and adjustment questions wait for morning. Your team stays in control of what 'urgent' means.
MedReception is built custom for your practice, not a plug-and-play template. If you change EHRs later, your AI setup moves with you. Your team gets free lifetime edits and optimization as your workflows evolve.

Annie answers immediately. She asks about the device type, current pressure settings, mask fit, and what they're experiencing. She captures their callback number and preferred time. The summary goes to your team with an urgency flag. If they mention breathing difficulty, it escalates to your on-call clinician right away.
No. Voicemails are captured as structured summaries and returned to your staff for review. Your team decides what goes into the chart and files it themselves. MedReception never writes clinical documentation autonomously. This keeps you in control and compliant.
Yes. You define what triggers an immediate escalation to on-call staff. Breathing concerns, equipment failure, and other sleep emergencies can be flagged automatically. Routine refill requests and appointment questions route to your morning queue. Your rules, your control.
Katie, our intake AI, still answers every call and captures all context. Your staff can enter booking requests and patient info manually, or you can request a custom integration. Book a demo and we'll scope a build for your system.
Launch takes about one week from signup. Your EHR connection and phone number are ready in one to three days. Registering your number for patient texting takes about five business days. Your onboarding team handles the whole process.
