A voice agent for your front desk phone

Viyo answers every patient call for clinics, group practices, and hospital departments - booking appointments, handling refill and billing questions, running reminder calls, and screening urgency - 24/7, in a natural human voice.

What it handles

The calls your front desk fields all day

Configure each one to match your providers, visit types, and clinical protocols.

Booking & rescheduling
Checks the live schedule, offers real slots by provider and visit type, books, moves, and cancels - then confirms by text.
Reminders & recall
Calls ahead of visits, chases no-shows, and runs recall lists for physicals, lab follow-ups, and overdue screenings.
Refill requests
Takes refill requests, confirms pharmacy and medication, and routes them to the right provider queue for approval.
Billing & insurance
Answers statement, copay, and accepted-plan questions from your approved information, and takes payment where allowed.
Intake & pre-visit
Collects name, date of birth, reason for visit, insurance, and pharmacy before the appointment.
Symptom screening
Runs your triage script, flags urgent language, and routes to same-day slots, a nurse line, or emergency care per your rules.
After-hours & overflow
Picks up when the office is closed or every line is busy, handles routine calls, and takes structured messages.
Warm transfer to staff
Hands the call to a nurse, biller, or coordinator with full context when a situation needs a person.
Scheduling

Fills the schedule without tying up the front desk

Patients call any hour to book, move, or cancel. The agent works from your live calendar, respects provider rules and visit lengths, and confirms every change in writing.

  • Books by provider, location, and visit type
  • Reschedules and cancels with waitlist backfill
  • Text confirmation and reminders on every booking

I need to move my Thursday appointment with Dr. Patel.

I can do that. I have Monday 9:15 or Tuesday 2:30 next week - which works?

Tuesday 2:30.

Booked for Tuesday at 2:30 with Dr. Patel. You'll get a text confirmation now.

Triage

Screens urgency and routes to the right place

The agent follows the triage script your clinical team approves. It listens for red-flag symptoms, escalates immediately when it hears them, and books everyone else into the appropriate slot.

  • Clinical team owns and edits the screening script
  • Urgent language triggers immediate escalation
  • Routine cases booked into same-day or next-available

My son has had a fever for two days and now a rash that isn't fading when I press it.

That needs to be seen right away. Please go to the nearest emergency department now - I'm also alerting our on-call nurse. Do you need the address?

Refills & billing

Clears the routine calls off the queue

Refill requests and billing questions are most of the front-desk phone load. The agent handles them from your approved information and passes anything clinical to the right queue.

  • Refill requests captured with pharmacy details
  • Statement and copay questions answered consistently
  • Anything needing a clinician is routed, never guessed

I need a refill on my blood pressure medication before I run out this weekend.

I've logged a refill request for lisinopril to CVS on Main Street and flagged it as time-sensitive for Dr. Nguyen's team. You'll get a text once it's sent.

For your patients

What the person calling in gets

Patients call about their health - the experience has to feel easy and human.

No waiting

Answered on the first ring, day or night, even at peak hours.

Their language

40+ languages, switching mid-call if the caller does.

Done on the call

Booked, rescheduled, or refilled before they hang up - not a callback promise.

A path to a person

Callers can always ask for staff and be warm-transferred with full context.

The difference

A day at the front desk, before and after

Without a voice agent
  • Calls roll to voicemail at lunch, after 5, and all weekend
  • Front desk stuck on refill and billing calls instead of patients in the room
  • No-shows because reminder calls never get made
  • Urgent symptoms sit in a voicemail queue
  • Peak-hour callers get a busy signal and hang up
With Viyo
  • Every patient call answered instantly, around the clock
  • Routine refill, billing, and scheduling calls handled automatically
  • Reminders and recall lists called every day without fail
  • Red-flag symptoms escalated to a nurse or ED in the moment
  • Unlimited calls at once - no busy signal, no missed patient
For your practice

Built for how a clinic actually runs

Handled with care

Encryption in transit and at rest, recording-consent controls, PII redaction, and configurable data retention.

Every call on record

Full transcript and audio for each conversation, with the outcome tagged - resolved, booked, escalated, or message.

Clean intake data

Demographics, insurance, and reason-for-visit captured the same way every time, ready for your EHR.

Live in minutes

Start from an industry template, connect a channel - phone, web, or your app - and your tools, and go live. Setup is automated, no onboarding project.

Viyo is a communication tool for administrative and scheduling tasks. It does not provide medical advice or diagnosis; clinical triage scripts and escalation rules are defined and owned by your care team.
