Athenahealth + Neurology

Athenahealth AI Front Desk for Neurology

A neurology practice running Athenahealth has two separate problems: the calls that never get answered, and the detail that never makes it into the chart. This covers both.

Why neurology calls need specialty rules

Manage complex medication titrations, seizure updates, and referral backlogs with detailed structured calls.

Medication Titration

Katie records dosage changes, side effects, and sends transcripts to the neurologist.

EEG/MRI Scheduling

AI coordinates diagnostics and shares preparation instructions.

Referral Intake

Referring physicians share notes and urgency; Katie books first-available based on diagnosis.

What lands in Athenahealth

Triage happens on the call. What reaches Athenahealth is a structured record in the place your team already works, not a voicemail someone has to transcribe.

  • Book/cancel appointments via Athena API
  • Attach call summaries to patient communication
  • Automate order reminders and lab follow-up

Setting it up for a neurology practice on Athenahealth

  • Confirm which Athenahealth modules your practice uses
  • Decide where each call type should land in Athenahealth

Security and compliance

PHI handling is covered by a signed BAA before anything goes live.
