What it handles

A starter playbook you can tune in minutes. We keep it practical: capture the essentials, route the right next step.

  • Runs quick triage and escalates emergencies based on your on-call rules

  • Covers after-hours calls so you don’t miss work while the team is offline

  • Answers new visit calls and routes existing customers

  • Captures contact info, location, and the reason for the call

  • Asks clarifying questions so your team has the full picture

  • Offers the next step: appointment or a callback window

What the AI asks callers

We ask only what your team needs to take action. No rambling, no guessing.

  • 1

    Is this an emergency right now? (Examples: chest pain, difficulty breathing.)

  • 2

    If someone is in immediate danger, call local emergency services.

    Safety note. You control escalation rules and messaging.

  • 3

    What’s the best name and number to reach you?

  • 4

    What’s the address or location for this visit?

  • 5

    What are you calling about today?

  • 6

    Are there any immediate safety concerns at the location?

  • 7

    What’s the best access info (gate code, unit, landmarks)?

  • 8

    Any symptoms that feel urgent or worsening? (If severe, call 911.)

  • 9

    Are you looking to new patient scheduling or reschedule?

  • 10

    When would you like the appointment (or callback)?

  • 11

    Any details we should know (access notes, photos, deadlines, preferences)?

  • 12

    Have you worked with us before?

Trust + guardrails

Built to be careful on purpose

  • No HIPAA compliance claims. Use privacy-conscious controls to minimize what’s collected and where it’s stored.
  • Call recording/transcription is optional and can be disabled.
  • Emergency disclaimer: for severe symptoms or immediate danger, hang up and dial 911 (or local emergency services).
  • If unsure, it asks clarifying questions instead of guessing
  • Grounded summaries: it follows your script + required fields so handoffs stay consistent
  • Spam blocking rules help reduce robocalls and repeat spam callers
  • Escalates to a human when your rules trigger (urgent issues, edge cases, VIPs)
