Managed Intake Pain management

How It Works

Keep patients moving from call to care.

AI Answers & Captures Intake

Patients explain what they need while AI captures demographics, insurance, referral source, procedure, and visit reason.

Books Appointments Directly 

Patients can book eligible appointments directly into your EHR and leave the call with a confirmed appointment, not a callback promise.

Routes Patients to the Right Place

When a call needs your team, the AI routes it appropriately with the information already collected.

Hands Off With Full Context

Clinical, urgent, or complex calls transfer to your staff with a verbal summary, so patients don't have to start over.

TPE

“We wanted to make scheduling easier and more accessible for our patients while reducing the workload on our front desk team. By giving patients another way to schedule their appointments, our staff has more time to focus on the patients who need direct assistance and provide a better overall experience.”

Karolina Ojdanic | Director of Operations | The Pain Experts

Real Situations. Real Solutions.

Here’s how Managed Patient Access handles the calls pain management front desks field every day.

New Patient Calls to Schedule

The situation: A new patient calls with a referral for a pain management consult. They need to provide demographics, insurance, and referral details before an appointment can be booked.

How Managed Intake helps:

  • Captures name, DOB, phone, address, referral source, PCP
  • Collects insurance details and verifies required fields
  • Books the appointment directly into the EHR
  • Delivers arrival instructions

The result: Patient gets a confirmed appointment in one call. No callback needed. Complete intake on file before they arrive.

Established Patient Needs to Reschedule

The situation: An established patient calls to reschedule a follow-up. They're already in the system but staff still has to pull the chart, confirm identity, check for insurance changes, and find an open slot.

How Managed Intake helps:

  • Confirms patient identity (name, DOB)
  • Checks whether insurance has changed and only collects new coverage details if it has
  • Captures appointment reason and service type
  • Books the new appointment directly into the EHR
  • Delivers updated arrival instructions

The result: Patient is rescheduled in one call. No redundant intake. Staff isn't interrupted for a task that didn't need them.

After-Hours Call

The situation: A patient calls at 7pm on a Thursday. The front desk is closed. Without a defined after-hours path, that call either dead-ends or rings until it drops.

How Managed Intake helps:

  • Detects that the call is outside business hours
  • Greets the caller with a clear after-hours message
  • Routes the call to the designated after-hours service
  • Documents the interaction and routing outcome

The result: No dead air. No missed patient. Every after-hours caller reaches a live destination with full context of when they called and why.

Patient Reports a Clinical Concern

The situation: A patient calls with a clinical concern, such as new symptoms, increased pain, medication questions, or concerns following a procedure. The call needs to reach the appropriate clinical staff.

How Managed Intake helps:

  • Captures patient identity and reason for calling
  • Records the information the patient provides
  • Recognizes the request requires clinical staff
  • Warm-transfers the call with a verbal summary

The result: The AI does not evaluate symptoms or make clinical decisions. Your staff receives the call with context already collected, helping the patient reach the right person faster.

Caller Asks for a Live Person

The situation: A caller doesn't want to interact with AI. They say "I just want to talk to someone" and they mean it immediately, not after completing three more prompts.

How Managed Intake helps:

  • Recognizes the transfer request at any point in the call
  • Exits the current workflow immediately
  • Transfers the caller to the front desk
  • Provides a vocal summary to staff where applicable

The result: The caller gets a human, fast. No trapped experience, no frustration loop. The AI gets out of the way when it's supposed to.

Why Netfor

AI built for patient access teams, not tech teams.

No Overpromises. Just Real Results.

Enterprise-Ready, Without the Complexity.

SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI compliance built in. Integrates with your existing phone system, EHR, and practice management platform. No rip-and-replace required.

Indianapolis-Based Teams Who Know Your Business.

30+ years supporting multi-location businesses means we understand specialty practice operations, front-desk challenges, and what happens when systems go down at 2 AM.

Clear Rules, No Black Boxes.

Our AI follows your business logic and escalation rules. You control what gets automated, what gets prioritized, and when humans step in.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does implementation take?

For eClinicalWorks practices, pilot launch is typically 4–6 weeks from signed terms. For other cloud-native EHRs, 8–12 weeks including integration build. We validate, activate, and optimize — no shortcuts.

Will AI replace my front-desk staff?

No. Netfor handles routine intake and scheduling calls so your team can focus on exceptions, clinical questions, and complex patient needs. Your experienced staff do the work that actually requires a human.

What happens when the AI can’t handle a call?

The patient is immediately warm-transferred to your staff with a verbal summary of everything already collected. No dead ends. No trapped callers. Human escalation is always available.

How do you ensure AI doesn’t give wrong answers?

Our AI is scoped to structured workflows: intake, scheduling, routing. It does not diagnose, prescribe, or provide clinical advice. Business rules and escalation logic are defined by you and enforced by the system.

Which EHR systems do you support?

eClinicalWorks integration is live and proven. We are actively expanding to other cloud-native EHR platforms including ModMed, DrChrono, and athenaOne. If your EHR has API access, we can likely integrate.

Is my patient data secure?

Yes. SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, PCI DSS certified. We execute a BAA as standard. Full audit trails on every interaction. 100% of conversations captured for compliance and quality assurance.
