Where cardiology practices lose calls today
Referrals and testing all at once
Your phones handle new referrals from primary care, follow-ups after hospital stays and scheduling for echos, stress tests and monitors. The front desk juggles all of it while checking patients in for testing.
Emergencies can come through the main line
Some patients call their cardiologist first when they feel chest pain or a racing heart. Every one of those callers needs to hear, right away and without fail, that they should call 911.
Prep questions tie up staff
Patients call to ask what to wear for a stress test, whether they can eat beforehand and where to go. Those calls come in every day and take staff away from patients in the office.

How does an AI receptionist help cardiology practices?
Cardiology phones carry a mix of referrals, testing, follow-ups and clinical calls. An AI receptionist answers every one of them right away, books visits and tests into the right calendars and answers the logistics questions patients ask every day, such as where to park and how long a test takes. Your front desk receives a summary for each call and can focus on the patients checking in for testing. Referring offices hear that their patients were scheduled quickly.
How does a cardiology answering service handle chest pain calls?
The AI can open every call by telling anyone with chest pain or trouble breathing to hang up and call 911. It repeats that instruction whenever a caller describes emergency symptoms such as chest pressure, fainting, stroke signs or severe shortness of breath. It never assesses symptoms, suggests waiting or offers medical advice. Your practice also chooses how urgent but non-emergency clinical calls reach your staff. The 911 instruction is the same on every call, at any hour, and every one of these calls is summarized for your team.
Can the AI answer test prep questions?
It can share the prep instructions your practice publishes on its website or gives the AI in writing, such as what to wear, arrival time and where to check in, and it can read them to the patient. Questions about whether to hold a specific medication before a test go to your nurses, because those are clinical decisions. The AI takes the patient’s first name and question for a callback.
Is it safe for cardiology patient calls?
Cardiology practices can add HIPAA mode with a signed BAA for $150 a month. That includes patient-safe alerts and keeps recordings in GH-controlled systems. The AI collects only a first name and the reason for the visit, never medical history. It identifies itself as a virtual assistant and routes medication, result and symptom questions to your clinical team, following the rules you set. You review everything it says before it goes live.

Questions from cardiology practices
Will the AI tell a patient whether their symptoms are serious?
No. The AI never gives medical advice or judges symptoms. Anyone describing emergency symptoms is told to call 911. Other clinical questions are routed to your nurses or physicians based on your rules, with the patient’s first name and concern.
Can it handle monitor returns and device questions?
It can share the return instructions and hours you publish, and book device appointments. Questions about readings, alerts or how a device is working go to your clinical team, who receive the patient’s first name and question in the call summary.
Can it book several appointments in one call?
Yes. The AI can book a test and a doctor visit back to back, or schedule a follow-up after testing, when your calendars show the openings. It confirms each booking with the patient and sends your team one summary. That saves the patient a second call.
Does it speak other languages?
Yes. In HIPAA mode, which medical practices use, it answers in English and Spanish. Without HIPAA mode, Studio voices answer in 89 languages, Russian and Ukrainian included. Patients can book, reschedule and ask about test locations in their language, and your team gets the summary in English, ready to act on. No translator is needed.
