Capture the insurance question for your office team

Your receptionist records what the caller wants to know so your team can review the benefits question. It handles the message while your staff handles coverage checks and answers.

Question capture

Take the caller's insurance question without presenting it as verified information.

Staff follow-up

Give your team the message and callback details for review.

Clear expectations

Explain that insurance answers need your office team's attention.
More detail

An insurance question can arrive in the middle of a new patient booking request or while your desk is busy. Your receptionist keeps that question in the call message so your staff knows what the caller asked, rather than guessing at an answer from the name of a plan.

For a fictional example, Avery asks whether insurance will cover a proposed visit. The receptionist notes Avery's question and takes callback details under your office instructions. It does not confirm eligibility, determine benefits, or promise payment. Your team returns to the question after its own review.

Hear how a benefits question becomes a message

The call begins with the virtual assistant and recording notices, then your receptionist asks the intake questions you provide. Insurance questions go into the message for your staff.

Open clearly

Announce the virtual assistant and call recording before gathering the request.

Record the question

Preserve what the caller asks without adding a coverage answer.

Notify your team

Deliver the summary, transcript, and recording by email and app push.
More detail

Imagine a made-up caller, Casey, asking about benefits while arranging a first visit. The receptionist gathers the appointment request and notes the separate insurance question. Your staff can use the summary to see the purpose of the call and consult the transcript or recording for the caller's wording.

If callback intake is your chosen workflow, the receptionist takes those details for the desk. If you choose Google Calendar booking, an appointment booking still does not confirm insurance coverage. Explore new patient appointment handling to decide how these requests should sit alongside your benefits follow-up.

Set the questions and callback instructions your staff needs

You supply the intake questions, office information, and callback instructions your receptionist follows. Keep insurance questions directed to your team and make the next step clear to callers.
  1. Office knowledge

    Provide your services, hours, website, and instructions for handling insurance questions.
  2. Intake scope

    Set the questions needed to give your staff a useful message.
  3. Update instructions

    Tell the AI when your office's call handling approach changes.
More detail

During onboarding, explain how your front desk wants to receive insurance questions. Set the questions that help staff understand the request and the callback wording callers should hear. Give your receptionist accurate office information without asking it to infer what a particular insurance plan covers.

Before going live, test a fictional caller asking about payment for a cleaning and another asking about a first visit. Review the summaries for clear questions and usable callback details. You can change settings in plain words through the AI when your team wants to adjust the intake.

Keep coverage checks and clinical answers with your team

The receptionist never verifies insurance coverage or quotes what a plan pays. It takes the question for your staff and routes clinical concerns under your office's call instructions.

No benefits decisions

Your staff checks coverage and provides the insurance answer.

No treatment advice

Clinical questions belong with your clinician, following your routing instructions.

Information limits

Use the pending status (no business associate agreement is in place) to evaluate whether your intended patient workflow is allowed.
More detail

Your call summary is a record of the conversation, not evidence of coverage. A caller naming an insurer does not turn the message into a benefits determination. Your staff remains responsible for reviewing the question and providing the checked answer.

Our HIPAA position is the pending status (no business associate agreement is in place). Do not use protected health information until that status is set.

The receptionist gives no diagnosis or treatment advice; clinical calls go to your clinician. Safety scripts direct emergencies to 911 and crisis calls to 988. Review privacy and caller data as part of choosing your intake questions.

Ask a fictional insurance question in the demo

The demo lets you hear insurance question intake at a fictional dental office. Ask about benefits using invented details and listen for a message-taking response your staff could review.

Try a benefits question

Ask what a fictional plan pays for a visit.

Add an appointment request

Hear how booking intake handles the accompanying insurance question.

Check the boundary

Listen for staff follow-up rather than an invented coverage answer.
More detail

Use the new patient insurance demo to ask whether a made-up plan pays for an appointment. Keep names and details fictional because the demo conversation is recorded and transcribed. Listen to how the receptionist explains its role and takes the question for the office team.

Repeat the request with an appointment question or try switching between English and Spanish. Assess whether the intake produces a message your front desk could act on. For your own office instructions, request a free intake trial; we email your sign-in link when your trial is ready. Test the insurance question wording before you forward live calls.

Quick answers

Can the receptionist verify a caller's dental insurance?

No. It records insurance and benefits questions for your team without checking eligibility or verifying coverage. Your staff reviews the message and provides the answer after its own checks. The call summary, transcript, and recording help your team understand what the caller asked.

Will it tell a patient what insurance will pay?

No. Your receptionist does not quote what insurance pays or promise benefits. It takes the question and callback details using your office instructions. If the caller is also requesting an appointment, that request can be recorded without presenting the booking as confirmation of coverage.

How do we receive messages about benefits questions?

Your team gets email and app push alerts with a call summary, urgency tag, transcript, and recording. The dashboard holds calls for review, and you receive a daily email digest. Staff can enter relevant information into practice software as part of their normal follow-up.

What happens if someone asks a question the AI cannot answer?

The receptionist takes the question as a message for your team rather than inventing an answer. You provide the intake and callback instructions during setup. For insurance questions, verification and payment details stay with your staff regardless of how familiar the request sounds.

Can I test an insurance conversation without using patient data?

Yes. The browser demo uses a fictional dental office and needs no signup. Use a made-up name, plan, and visit request to hear the intake. Demo calls are recorded and transcribed, so keep real patient information out of the conversation while assessing the wording.
