How it works

  1. Agent monitors live call queue depth and takes over the moment reception is busy or after hours.
  2. Answers in the patient's language and identifies the record.
  3. Handles admin only — opening hours, directions, appointment prep, forms, invoices.
  4. Reschedules or cancels appointments straight in the diary.
  5. Symptoms, results and medication go to your staff immediately, with the transcript. The agent gives no clinical advice, ever.
  6. If staff are also unavailable, a structured callback task is created in the CRM rather than a generic voicemail.
  7. Overflow volume patterns are reported to help the practice plan staffing.
