AI Call Forwarding for ER Services

AI Call Forwarding for Emergency Rooms | Real-Time Triage and Routing with MEDENDx

In emergency healthcare, seconds matter—and so does every call. With AI Call Forwarding for ER, your facility can ensure that urgent calls are automatically detected, triaged, and routed to the appropriate response team—instantly, intelligently, and securely.

Powered by natural language understanding and real-time decision-making, our AI identifies critical keywords, urgency levels, and caller intent to prioritize calls for emergency departments, providers, or triage nurses—without human screening delays.

Whether you're a clinic handling after-hours urgent care, a virtual triage network, or a hospital with multiple departments, ensure that every ER-relevant call is routed fast and flawlessly.

How does it work?

  1. AI Listens, Understands, and Prioritizes

    2. Calls are answered by a virtual assistant trained in emergency medical protocols. It listens for symptoms, conditions, or phrases and tags the call as an emergency, high-priority, or routine.

  2. Real-Time Routing

    3. The system then instantly forwards the call to your ER nurse line, triage desk, or on-call physician—based on escalation settings and team availability.

  3. Fallback Escalation

    4. If no staff are reachable, MEDENDx automatically triggers backup alerts, alternate numbers, or voicemail transcription to SMS/email to avoid missed emergencies.

  4. Smart Queue Bypass

    5. Emergency-tagged calls skip standard waiting queues and automated menus, ensuring that patients in crisis speak to humans—fast.

  5. HIPAA-Compliant Call Logging

    6. All interactions are securely recorded, transcribed (if enabled), and stored with patient or case metadata for legal, clinical, and billing purposes.
