Questions about physical therapy.
Will the receptionist sound like a robot to my clients?
No. Your AI receptionist speaks in a natural voice you choose, keeps answers short, and reacts the way a person would ("Oh no, let's get that sorted"). Callers are told once, in the greeting, that they're talking to an AI, and the receptionist never pretends to be a person.
Can the receptionist handle insurance verification questions?
Yes. Your AI receptionist captures the insurance provider, policy number and referral source and puts them in the call summary, so your billing team can verify coverage before the first visit.
What happens to calls at night and on weekends?
Your AI receptionist answers every one, at any hour, and books the caller into your next open time. If someone needs something the receptionist can't do, your receptionist takes their name, number and what they need and sends it to you straight away, so you can call them back.
Does the receptionist capture physician referrals?
Yes. Your AI receptionist asks for the referring physician, diagnosis code if available, and prescribed treatment, so you arrive with complete context.
Can the receptionist book with specific therapists?
Yes. Patients can request a specific therapist, and the AI receptionist checks availability and books the evaluation accordingly.
Is AlwaysRespond HIPAA-compliant?
AlwaysRespond is not HIPAA certified, and we do not sign Business Associate Agreements (BAAs). What is true: no call audio is ever stored, and transcripts are access-controlled per account. The database is encrypted at rest by our provider; we do not encrypt transcripts field-by-field, and we would rather you hear that from us than from an auditor. If your practice handles patient information, email security@alwaysrespond.com before you sign up so we can tell you honestly whether we are a fit. Please confirm your requirements with a compliance professional.
What does AlwaysRespond cost next to a receptionist or an answering service?
Small Business is $79 a month for 100 calls, Growing Business $149 for 300, and High Volume $299 for 600, with every feature on every plan and the phone answered around the clock, nights, weekends and holidays included. The first month is free, there's no setup fee and no contract, and you can cancel online any time.
