By the numbers: In a 2025 mystery-shopper study of primary care offices listed in Medicaid managed-care directories (Los Angeles, Houston, New York), fewer than half of English-language calls (46.9%) ended with a first-time appointment scheduled; unanswered calls and voicemail were among the failure categories.

The five workflows every industry shares
The same five run in all 27 industries. What changes for healthcare is the overlay: the records, the stages and the words. How it works.
The Healthcare overlay: Patients, Care Episodes, Patient Inquiries, Referrals. Stages: Inquiry → Scheduled → Insurance Verified → In Treatment → Follow-up → Discharged.
Intake and triage
Every call, text, email and form becomes a inquiry on the patient's record, with who, why and the next step. A fixed ladder of rules sorts it before any model is asked.
Touches: Opens the care episode at Inquiry.
Follow-up
Moves each care episode forward and writes down why each move happened. Chases the care episodes that have gone quiet, and stops when a person says stop.
Touches: Inquiry to Discharged, one stage at a time.
Scheduling
Books the visit, call or appointment on the calendar and on the care episode, sends the confirmation and the reminder, and reschedules when the patient asks.
Touches: The calendar and the care episode.
Quoting
Prepares the quote from your price book or template, sends it once a person approves it, and follows up until it is answered.
Touches: Patient inquiries and the care episode.
Reporting
Each day, what each agent did and what it proposed, built from the log of every action it took. Nothing is reported that was not recorded.
Touches: The record, read back to you.
Workflows specific to Healthcare
Real automation workflows — your agents work in the tools your healthcare business already uses, through each tool's own connection or in the browser, and record every result in your CRM.
Patient Scheduling & Reminders
AI handles appointment requests, finds open slots, confirms bookings, and sends reminders 48hr, 24hr, and 2hr before. Manages cancellations and fills gaps.
Insurance Verification
Automatically verifies patient insurance eligibility, checks copays and deductibles, and flags authorization requirements before the visit.
Patient Follow-Up
Sends post-visit instructions, medication reminders, and follow-up appointment prompts. Tracks patient responses and escalates concerns to clinical staff.
