Detect real emergencies, route them immediately

How your medical practice stays reachable for urgent cases even outside office hours.

Medical practices receive an average of 3-5 urgent calls per week outside office hours (Practice Management Study). Without an intelligent system, these go to voicemail, which can be dangerous in real emergencies. An AI phone assistant like Vokaro recognizes urgency based on keywords and symptom descriptions, routes real emergencies immediately to the designated emergency number, and documents all other calls for the next business day.

Sunday, 10:15 PM, doctor is at home

Mrs. Lehmann, 68, suddenly has severe chest pain and shortness of breath. Her first instinct is to call Dr. Weber, whom she's known for years. She dials the practice number. Without Vokaro, she hears the voicemail and has to look up the on-call service. With Vokaro, the system immediately recognizes a potential emergency, recommends calling 911, and simultaneously notifies Dr. Weber by text message.

Emergencies immediately, everything else the next morning

For life-threatening symptoms, Vokaro immediately recommends calling 911 and notifies you simultaneously via text and push notification.

3

Route urgent matters to your emergency number

For urgent but non-life-threatening concerns, the call is forwarded to your personal emergency number.

4

Document non-urgent matters

Inquiries that can wait until the next day are documented and sent as a summary to your practice team in the morning.

FAQ

Can Vokaro really detect emergencies reliably?

Vokaro is trained on medical triage terminology and recognizes keywords like chest pain, shortness of breath, severe bleeding, or loss of consciousness. When in doubt, the system always classifies as urgent so no emergency is missed.

What if I can't answer my emergency number?

You can set up a fallback chain: first your cell phone, then a colleague, then the on-call medical service. Vokaro works through the list until someone is reached.

Is the patient informed they're speaking with an AI?

Yes, transparency is important to us. Vokaro introduces itself as the practice's phone assistant. Patients know they're speaking with an automated system and can request a transfer to a person at any time.

Detect emergencies before it's too late

Vokaro ensures urgent calls never end up on voicemail. Intelligent triage, 24/7.
