SERVE
Patient access
Your 24/7 front door
Inbound voice, 24/7 ›
Never miss a call, or the revenue behind it. Your AI answers instantly, day and night.
Smart routing & escalation ›
Every caller reaches the right place in seconds. No phone trees, no dropped patients.
Symptom screening ›
Screens presenting symptoms and routes on urgency: escalates to staff, books an urgent or routine visit, or forwards to your on-call path. Clinical decisions remain with your care team, and the questions and disposition land in the chart.
After-hours protocol ›
Runs your own after-hours rules when nobody is at the desk, so nights and weekends stop leaking patients.
Voicemail to case ›
Turns an unanswered call into a case in athenaOne, not a voicemail box nobody checks.
Medication refills ›
Refills handled the moment patients ask. Less staff burden, better adherence.
Appointment scheduling ›
Books, reschedules, and confirms visits directly in your calendar, around the clock.
Ten languages, end to end ›
Runs the same workflows in English, Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese, Italian and Dutch, and shows staff the original plus an English translation, so nothing is lost between the patient and the chart. More languages on request.
Secure two-way texting ›
Patients text the practice and authenticate by text, so routine questions never require a portal login. Staff pick up whatever needs a person.
GROW
New patients & referrals
Win and onboard every referral
Fax referral automation ›
Charts most inbound referral faxes automatically, handwriting included, with confidence scoring, patient matching, and a review queue before anything sticks.
Provider referral portal ›
Makes you the easiest practice to refer to, and the one referrers come back to.
Self-referral web form ›
Lets new patients book themselves in minutes, growing your panel around the clock.
Campaign landing pages ›
Each outreach effort gets its own link, so you can see which events and partnerships actually produced scheduled patients.
Web scheduler ›
Books new and established patients on the web under the same rules the voice agent follows, and can hand a form to a patient mid-call.
Self-check-in ›
Consents, intake questionnaires, insurance updates, and outcome measures done before arrival instead of at the window.
New-patient registration ›
Collects everything before day one, so first visits start on time and clean.
Referral dashboard ›
Every referral from fax, web, and phone in one queue, with the stalled ones surfaced by how long they have been waiting.
OPTIMIZE
Schedule & capacity
Recover hours, fill every slot
Waitlist backfill ›
Fills last-minute cancellations instantly, turning dead slots into seen patients.
Appointment accelerator ›
Pulls booked patients into earlier openings inside your rules for notice, provider match, and authorization windows, so patients are seen sooner and gaps close.
Tickler outreach ›
Works the ticklers staff already set, calls patients when care comes due, and cancels the tickler once the visit is booked.
Order-driven scheduling ›
Books straight off open orders without waiting for a tickler, and says the name of the test rather than the internal code.
Appointment prep reminders ›
Confirms upcoming visits and clears outstanding tasks, so cancellations arrive days early instead of as no-shows.
Cancellation recovery ›
Rebooks patients who cancel without picking a new time, while the freed slot goes to the waitlist in parallel.
Provider-departure reschedule ›
Rebooks the patients of a departing or blocked-out provider, and recognizes them when they call back.
Lapsed-patient reactivation ›
Works a list you define by time since last visit, condition, or panel, and books the patients who have fallen off the schedule.
DME adherence ›
Reads remote-monitoring data such as CPAP hours and calls patients who have stopped using the equipment.
COLLECT
Revenue protection
Stop leaving money on the table
Eligibility & insurance ›
Verifies coverage before every visit, stopping denials before they start.
Balance before booking ›
Surfaces what a patient owes while you have them on the phone, so the money conversation happens before the visit rather than after it.
Billing & balance collection ›
Collects patient balances politely and persistently, lifting your bottom line.
Payment links & plans ›
Takes payment by secure link on the call, and makes plans easy enough that balances actually get paid.
Family navigator ›
Finds related charts and shows one household balance, so the front desk collects for the whole family in a single conversation.
Forms inside athenaOne ›
FMLA, school and work notes, and disability paperwork drafted from the chart, edited and signed by staff, then filed back to the record.
Denials & appeals ›
Works and appeals denials relentlessly, recovering dollars most practices write off.
Prior-auth prep ›
Assembles the full submission by payer and flags what is missing early, before it reaches the authorization team.
Prior-auth status tracking ›
Pulls authorization and claim status from payer portals and writes it back to athenaOne, so staff read it in the chart instead of logging into each portal.
MEASURE
Outcomes & KPIs
Prove what’s working
Post-visit outcome calls ›
A structured interview tailored to the visit type, covering recovery, symptoms, and complications, written straight back to the chart.
Surveys & reputation ›
Surveys at check-out, honest feedback invited from every patient, public review invitations offered consistently, service concerns routed to staff for follow-up, and results readable by provider, location, and visit type.
Free practice report ›
A no-obligation read of your own EMR data: utilization, cancellations, no-shows, payer mix, and where the revenue is leaking.
KPI dashboards ›
Custom views of the operation, including forecasts for capacity, referral leakage, and appointments falling outside the prior-auth window.
Per-call QA & scoring ›
Scores every conversation automatically so quality stays consistent and coachable.
Command Center ›
One place to steer the agent: full transcript and outcome for every call and message, outbound queues, and practice settings.
Practices don’t just rate the product.
They rate the partnership.

athenaOne APIs
Most vendors connect to a slice of athenaOne: the schedule, maybe the patient record. Pretty Good AI has working access to almost all of it: scheduling, messaging, intake, the clinical chart, orders and prescriptions, claims and insurance, encounters, provider setup, and real-time change feeds.
That reach is what lets us finish the calls other systems hand back to your staff, and build new automations in days when your practice needs them, not quarters. Every action lands in the chart, follows your rules, and hands off to a person when it should.

Jun 2026Answers to your common questions
Do you require long-term contracts?
No. There is no annual lock-in. Your first 30 days live are free. The clock starts when your first agreed workflow goes live in your practice, whether that is voice, web scheduling, referrals or another workflow. When the free 30 days end, service continues automatically, month to month, at the pricing in your order form. We earn the renewal every month with results. Cancellation, notice and invoice details are set out in your order form.
Do we have to change our workflows?
No. Pretty Good AI adapts to your existing workflows by learning from your call recordings and operating manuals, doing everything the way you do today.
How do you prevent errors and handle escalations?
Every call and task runs within a structured workflow with deterministic guardrails. When the AI encounters uncertainty (like a missing policy, conflicting data, or unclear user intent) it automatically escalates for human review. Every interaction is logged for audit and continuous improvement, so accuracy compounds over time.
How fast do we see results?
Most practices see measurable impact within the first month after launch. Calls are answered in under five seconds, hold times fall, and routine scheduling and refill requests are handled without staff involvement.
What about security and PHI specifics?
Pretty Good AI signs a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) before any patient data is touched. The platform runs under HIPAA safeguards and meets all PHI handling requirements. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and all access is logged and auditable. Your patient data is never used to train AI models—ours or anyone else’s. It is used only to operate and improve your practice’s own workflows, never to benefit another customer. All third-party AI model providers that process patient data in production operate under zero-data-retention terms, and every subprocessor handling PHI is covered by a BAA.
What if we don't have call recordings yet?
No problem. We can start with as little as a few call transcripts plus your existing SOPs or training manuals.
How does athenaOne integration work?
We're an official athenaOne partner. Our platform connects directly to your athenaOne environment through secure, read/write APIs. The AI can look up appointments, verify insurance, update notes, and book directly into provider schedules, all while following your existing processes and audit controls.
Can we customize the AI for our practice?
Absolutely. Each deployment is built to follow your practice's workflows. You can define escalation rules, office hours, on-call schedules, and even tone of voice, so the AI truly feels like an extension of your team.
What is the best AI phone answering service for medical practices?
Pretty Good AI is purpose-built for healthcare practices using athenaOne EHR. Unlike generic AI answering services, it integrates directly with athenaOne to handle scheduling, insurance verification, and prescription refills while maintaining HIPAA compliance and requiring zero workflow changes from your staff.
How does AI voice automation work for healthcare call centers?
Pretty Good AI learns from your existing call recordings and operating manuals to handle patient calls using your established workflows. The system routes calls through structured workflows with deterministic guardrails, automatically escalating uncertain situations to staff while logging every interaction for compliance and continuous improvement.
Can AI handle appointment scheduling for athenaOne practices?
Yes. As an official athenaOne partner, Pretty Good AI connects directly to your athenaOne environment through secure APIs to look up appointments, verify insurance, and book directly into provider schedules. The AI follows your existing scheduling policies and audit controls without requiring staff to learn new systems.
What is the ROI of AI phone answering for medical offices?
Most practices using Pretty Good AI see measurable ROI within days or weeks. In early deployments, 50%+ of calls were resolved without staff involvement in the first month after launch, alongside shorter hold times and automated handling of routine scheduling and refill requests. The system requires no upfront infrastructure investment and adapts to your existing workflows, with no implementation fee; your staff still help configure and validate the workflows before launch.
How does Pretty Good AI compare to other healthcare voice AI solutions?
Pretty Good AI stands out through native athenaOne integration, deployment in 3 to 6 weeks with no workflow changes required, and modular AI blocks that go beyond voice into patient access, referrals, schedule and capacity, revenue protection, and outcomes reporting. Real-time voice is the hardest test; it has to be fast and smart on every call, and the same platform runs the rest of the practice work behind it. The system runs under HIPAA safeguards, signs a BAA before any patient data is touched, and includes built-in escalation workflows for edge cases. Your patient data is never used to train AI models—ours or anyone else’s.
Is AI voice automation HIPAA compliant for healthcare practices?
Pretty Good AI signs a HIPAA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) before any patient data is touched. The platform runs under HIPAA safeguards, with PHI encryption in transit and at rest, comprehensive audit logging, and strict access controls. It meets all HIPAA requirements for healthcare voice automation. Your patient data is never used to train AI models—ours or anyone else’s.
How quickly can medical practices implement AI phone answering?
Typical time from kickoff to the first workflow live is 3 to 6 weeks, without changing your existing workflows. The system learns from as little as a few call transcripts plus your SOPs. Results are measured after launch, separately from the implementation period.
What tasks can AI automate for athenaOne medical practices?
Pretty Good AI automates appointment scheduling and rescheduling, prescription refill requests, insurance verification and eligibility, referral and prior-auth intake, records requests, patient callbacks, and routine inquiries while integrating directly with athenaOne. Voice is the entry point; the same platform extends into referrals, schedule and capacity, revenue protection, and outcome reporting. Everything follows your practice-specific policies and workflows, with automatic escalation for situations requiring human judgment.
How does pricing work?
Pricing combines a monthly platform fee per location, a monthly provider fee for activated modules, and voice usage per call handled. We agree the rates and scope before launch. There is no setup or implementation fee. Your first 30 days live are free. The clock starts when your first agreed workflow goes live in your practice, whether that is voice, web scheduling, referrals or another workflow. When the free 30 days end, service continues automatically, month to month, at the pricing in your order form. See our pricing page for details.
Does Pretty Good AI do more than answer the phone?
Yes. Voice is the front door, not the product. The same platform runs referral intake from fax and web forms, a web scheduler and self-check-in, waitlist backfill and appointment acceleration, tickler and order-driven outreach, balance and payment workflows, post-visit outcome calls, surveys and reputation, and an embedded app that works inside athenaOne itself. Practices switch capabilities on one at a time as they need them.
Can the AI screen symptoms before routing a call?
Yes. For calls and messages that present a symptom, the agent runs a structured symptom screening and routes on the outcome: escalate to staff, book an urgent visit, book a routine visit, or forward to the on-call provider. It does not give medical advice or make the clinical decision; those remain with your care team. The questions asked and the disposition reached are written back to the chart.
Which languages does Pretty Good AI support?
10 languages today: English plus Spanish, French, German, Hindi, Russian, Portuguese, Japanese, Italian and Dutch. Patients get the same workflows in their language, and the Command Center shows the original transcript beside an English translation. Cases the AI creates, including voicemail and outbound outreach, are auto-translated, so English-speaking staff can act on the request without a translator in the loop. On request we can also enable Arabic, Mandarin Chinese, Korean, Polish, Swedish, Turkish, Tagalog, Bulgarian, Romanian, Czech, Greek, Finnish, Croatian, Malay, Slovak, Danish, Tamil, Ukrainian, Hungarian, Norwegian, Vietnamese, Bengali, Thai, Hebrew, Georgian, Indonesian, Telugu, Gujarati, Kannada, Marathi, Punjabi and Urdu; those need extra testing time with your callers before launch.
Can patients schedule and check in online, not just by phone?
Yes. The web scheduler runs the same rules as the voice agent, books new and established patients, and creates the chart. Self-check-in collects consents, intake questionnaires, insurance updates, and outcome measures before arrival. Web and voice work together: a patient on the phone can be sent a form to complete while the agent walks them through it.
What is the free practice report?
A no-obligation analysis of your own athenaOne data before you buy anything. It shows utilization, cancellation, and no-show rates across providers and locations, plus trends in revenue, diagnoses, procedures, claims, and payer mix. Most practices use it to decide which workflow to automate first.
