Epic + Pain Management

Epic AI Front Desk for Pain Management

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

Why pain management calls need specialty rules

Specialty-tuned call handling for pain management practices: triage rules your clinicians define, scheduling that respects your visit types, and escalation that never sits in a queue.

Controlled Substance Policy

Refill requests are screened against your controlled-substance policy before reaching a clinician.

Procedure Scheduling

Injections and blocks are booked with the right prep, fasting, and driver requirements.

Escalation for Worsening Symptoms

New neurological symptoms are escalated rather than queued.

What lands in Epic

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

  • Read-only access to appointments via RPA or App Orchard
  • Drop call summaries into In Basket or work queues
  • Optional SmartForm intake for referrals

Setting it up for a pain management practice on Epic

Go-live is typically 7 to 14 days. Most of that time is spent on your rules rather than on the integration itself.

  • Load controlled-substance policy language
  • Define procedure prep requirements
  • Set neurological red-flag criteria
  • Confirm which Epic modules your practice uses
  • Decide where each call type should land in Epic

Security and compliance

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

  • BAA-backed deployment
  • Audit logging synced with Epic security
