Communications

Every Patient Conversation, One System.

Five phone lines, texting, reminders, reviews, payments and fax on a single living record. The phone rings and Call Pop puts the chart on screen; a missed call becomes a text; the balance gets paid from the thread. One place, not six apps.

The compliance is the boring part. We did it anyway.

Voice · Around the clock

It Answers. It Books. It Calls Back.

An AI receptionist on the first ring, day or night — and one that proactively calls the patients you’d never get around to.

See the AI Receptionist
  • Answered around the clockEvery call to the main line is picked up live — lunch rush, Saturday, 2 a.m. Voicemail is retired.
  • Booked before hangupIt verifies identity and copay against the chart, reads the live schedule, and books, moves or cancels on the call.
  • It works the call-back listOverdue recall, lapsed patients, treatment plans left on the table — the outbound side dials the list your team never gets to.
  • Up-front, and never corneredEvery call opens by disclosing it's an automated assistant. The moment a caller wants a person, it hands off — with the whole conversation on screen.

Every channel · One thread

Eight Channels.
One Conversation.

A phone system, a texting app, an email tool and a fax machine — that’s four places for one patient’s story to go missing. DocsDocs braids every channel a patient touches into a single chronological thread on their record, shared by the desk, the chart and billing.

  • The whole team reads one conversationFront desk, hygiene and billing see the same thread with the same context. Nobody asks “did anyone call her back?”
  • One opt-out silences every channelA patient says stop once and DocsDocs honors it across all eight — compliance without the spreadsheet.
  • Replies arrive in the patient’s languageDocsDocs detects it and answers in kind, from Spanish to Mandarin — the thread keeps both sides.
  • Households collapse into one messageOne confirmation covers the family of five. One thread per patient, one buzz per household.

The Screen Knows Before You Say Hello.

Caller-ID pops the chart the instant the phone rings. Then a live copilot surfaces balance, benefits and recall — with the reason behind every suggestion — while you're still talking.

See the in-call copilot
  • Pops on the first ring.Caller-ID matches the patient and opens their chart before you've picked up — no “can you spell that?”, no searching mid-call.
  • Works the call with you.Balance, benefits and overdue recall stream in exactly when they're useful — while the patient is still on the line.
  • Every suggestion shows its why.Each card carries the one-line reason behind it — the data it read, the rule it applied. Nothing arrives from a black box.
  • Hangs up, files itself.The consent-disclosed recording is transcribed, summarized into the thread, and the follow-up is drafted before the handset hits the cradle.

Calls are recorded with consent, disclosed to the caller at the start of every call.

Campaigns · Recall

The Schedule Fills Itself.

Every morning, DocsDocs finds who’s overdue for recall, who quietly lapsed, and whose treatment plan stalled — then reaches out on its own. Each campaign climbs from a text to a mailed postcard until it lands, and stops the second the patient replies.

See outreach in full
Runs itself for
  • Overdue recall
  • Lapsed patients
  • Unaccepted treatment
  • Post-visit follow-up
  • Missed-call follow-up
  • New-patient welcome
  • Birthday & anniversary
  • Follow-up calling and messaging. After a visit — or a call you missed — the cadence follows up both ways: an automated follow-up call with a recorded voicemail drop and a personal follow-up text, so nothing slips between a ring and a reply.
  • One message per household. Campaigns dedupe against each other before anything sends — a family of five never gets five texts.
  • Every send explains itself. Each message carries a plain-English audit note on the record: why this patient, why this channel, why today.
Follow-up · calls & texts

The follow-up that always happens.

After a visit, a missed call, or a stalled treatment plan, DocsDocs follows up both ways — an AI voice call and a personal text — books the next visit, and stops the second the patient responds. Your front desk can take over any call or thread with full context.

Documents · AI

The Fax Pile, Finally Readable.

Referrals, lab reports, EOBs — dentistry still arrives by fax. So every inbound page is read on the spot: OCR’d, summarised, and filed to the right chart. The machine in the corner becomes a triaged inbox.

See the fax inbox
  • 01Every page, summarised

    Document type, a one-line gist, clinical findings, requested actions — pulled from each fax the moment it lands. You read four lines, not four pages.

  • 02Filed to the right chart

    Matched to the patient automatically above a confidence threshold. Anything uncertain waits in a queue for a one-tap human pick — never a wrong chart.

  • 03OCR that copes

    Crisp e-faxes and crooked, third-generation photocopies alike — a scanned-page fallback keeps the reading honest when the pixels aren’t.

  • 04Two-way, reconciled

    Send outbound straight from the chart and watch delivery confirm itself. No cover sheets, no standing by the machine.

Vendor-agnostic by design — keep your fax number, retire the pile.

Every Call, Mined for What Matters.

Call volume, missed-call recovery, patient sentiment — and the unbooked treatment hiding in real conversations. Pulled from every call your practice takes, then turned into a follow-up, not a spreadsheet.

See call intelligence
  • Every call, transcribedEach conversation on your line becomes searchable text and a two-line summary the moment the handset drops. No recorder, no plugin, no 'let me pull the tape.'
  • Missed calls, recoveredA missed ring gets a text-back in seconds and a spot in the follow-up queue — before the patient finishes dialing the practice down the street.
  • Sentiment and intent, readEvery call is scored for how it felt and what the caller actually wanted, so a frustrated reschedule never hides in a call log again.
  • Revenue, surfacedWhen a crown gets mentioned and nobody books it, that isn't a note in a report. It's a drafted follow-up with a dollar figure attached, waiting for one click.

The board is the receipt. The follow-up is the point.

Questions

Everything Front Desks Ask Us

The phone, the texting, the reviews, the payments — how the communications suite actually works, in plain terms.

Do I have to sign a long-term contract?

No. DocsDocs Communications is month-to-month with no multi-year lock-in and no early-termination penalty. Migration off your old phone and messaging setup is free — you stay because it works, not because a contract traps you.

Can I keep my existing phone numbers?

Yes. We port your current numbers over — main line, hunt group, fax number — and run the old and new lines in parallel until the port completes, so you never lose a minute of coverage or miss a patient call during the switch.

What happens to calls we can't get to?

Every ring surfaces the caller's chart with Call Pop, so whoever picks up already knows who it is. Anything you miss triggers an automatic text back to the patient — "sorry we missed you, how can we help?" — so a missed call becomes a booked appointment instead of a lost one.

How do appointment reminders and confirmations work?

Reminders send automatically by text and email on the schedule you set. Patients confirm, cancel or ask to reschedule by replying — no app, no login — and the answer writes straight back to the appointment book, so the front desk isn't re-keying confirmations by hand.

Can patients pay by text?

Yes. Text-to-pay sends a secure, single-use payment link a patient taps and pays from their phone, and card-on-file lets you collect balances and copays without chasing statements. Payments post to the patient ledger automatically.

Does it collect reviews for us?

After a visit, DocsDocs sends the patient a review request at the moment they're happiest — right after they walk out — and routes them to your Google or Facebook listing. More five-star reviews, without anyone at the desk remembering to ask.

Do we need to buy new phones or hardware?

No closet server and no proprietary handsets required. Communications runs in the browser on the computers, tablets and phones you already have, and works with standard VoIP desk phones if you prefer a handset. Add a line, a chair or a location without racking anything new.

Is patient texting HIPAA-compliant?

Yes. Everything runs under a signed BAA on HIPAA-aligned infrastructure, encrypted in transit and at rest, with access logging. Outbound messaging follows TCPA consent rules, and PHI never leaves the record it belongs to.
