MedFrontDesk Playbook

Nurse Line Relief

Give nurses their focus back. Katie manages symptom updates, portal questions, and prescription status calls.

When to run this playbook

Nurses can’t close tickets because phones never stop.

Documentation suffers when they multitask.

Patients escalate to ER when they can’t reach someone.

Caller journey (high-level)

01

Intent mapping

AI differentiates symptom updates vs. medication vs. wound care.

02

Structured logging

Each call produces a structured summary dropped into the nurse inbox.

03

Escalation filters

High-acuity signals page the nurse; routine messages wait for asynchronous review.
