Weight Loss & Bariatric
Weight loss practices lose calls during peak hours when staff eat or handle back-to-back consultations. MedReception AI answers every inbound call during lunch and busy windows, captures new patient intake, and routes appointment requests directly to your schedule. No missed calls. No voicemail tag games.

Your front desk eats or handles consultations. MedReception AI answers the phone, qualifies the caller, and books or escalates. New patients reach a live voice, not a full voicemail box. Existing callers get appointment times immediately.
Weight loss intake is detailed: BMI, prior bariatric surgery, current medications, comorbidities, insurance status. The AI captures this structured summary on the call and returns it to your team as a pasteable note. Your team reviews once, not multiple times.
Callbacks are eliminated. If a caller needs to speak to a clinician, the AI escalates with the full intake summary so your team answers informed. Urgent calls are routed immediately; routine bookings are done.
Appointments and new patient demographics write directly to athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, or Nextech. If you switch EMRs later, your AI stays with you.

Yes. If an open slot matches the caller's need and availability, the AI books it into your EMR and sends the confirmation to the patient. If no slot is available or the call is complex, the AI escalates to your team with the full intake summary so they can callback or offer alternatives.
The AI qualifies the caller and captures their intake: current weight, goals, prior surgeries, medications, and insurance. It does not give medical advice or make clinical decisions. If a caller asks about a procedure or has clinical questions, the AI escalates to your clinician or scheduler with the full context.
Voicemail is transcribed and summarized inside MedReception, which is HIPAA compliant (verified by Compliancy Group). The summary is returned to your team as a structured note. If it is an appointment request, your staff can book it or callback. If it is urgent, you are alerted.
No. Your phone number stays the same. We connect to your existing EMR (athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, Cerbo, Hint, Tebra, ModMed, Practice Fusion, Jane, Office Ally, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Accuro, pMD, PS Suite, or Nextech) so bookings write directly to your schedule. Launch takes about one week from signup; your EHR connection and phone are ready in one to three days.
Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your EHR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours. In the meantime, the AI answers every call, handles intake, and sends booking requests to your staff to enter manually.
