FAQ

Medical answering service FAQs

What is a medical answering service?

A medical answering service answers patient calls for a clinic or practice when staff are busy or closed. Ansio does it with AI: it answers 24/7, books and reschedules appointments on your Google, Outlook, or Square calendar, sends SMS reminders, and routes urgent callers to the on-call clinician. In the UK this is called a telephone answering service for medical practices.

Can it route urgent patient calls to the on-call clinician?

Yes. Ansio transfers urgent or specific callers to the right person by the rules your practice sets, so an after-hours call reaches the on-call clinician instead of voicemail.

Does Ansio handle patient privacy and compliance?

Talk to our team about your compliance requirements.

Can it book and reschedule appointments?

Yes. Ansio books, reschedules, and cancels appointments in real time on your Google, Outlook, or Square calendar during the call, then sends the patient an SMS confirmation.

How much does a medical answering service cost?

Ansio is a flat monthly subscription with no per-minute or per-call charges. You pay the same whether call volume is light or heavy.

How fast can we go live?

Most practices are live the same day. You forward your existing number to Ansio, with no new hardware, no new line, and no contract.
