AI phone answering, medical offices

Scheduling calls answered while your staff is with patients.

Aplos Front Desk answers your office line with an AI that tells callers it is a virtual assistant, answers scheduling and general calls from facts you approve, takes the caller’s name and callback number, and sends clinical questions to your team. It is $199 a month plus a $349 launch fee for one location, and the first 14 days are free. We do not sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) today, so read the patient-details section before you decide.

What it does on a call

Answer, capture, route, summarize.

Front Desk is the AI answering plan. These are the rules it runs on, written and tested with you before launch.

Greeting

Says it is a virtual assistant

Every call starts with: this is the virtual assistant, and this call is transcribed.

Answers

Only approved facts

Hours, address, parking, the insurance plans you accept. Anything else gets: the team will confirm.

Capture

Name and callback

The AI takes the caller's name, callback number and the reason in general terms, like a new appointment or a reschedule.

Urgent

Your rule, your number

Calls you mark urgent go to the number you choose.

Summary

One email per call

Name, callback number and reason, labeled as the caller's own words.

Patient details

What the line will not take.

Front Desk is for scheduling and general calls, not clinical information. It does not ask for or record symptoms, diagnoses, medications or insurance IDs, and it gives no medical advice. Clinical questions go to your team.

We do not sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) today, and call audio and transcripts pass through our phone, speech and AI vendors. If your calls require a BAA, a HIPAA-covered answering service is the better choice for now, and we will say so on the call.

Honest fit

Who this is for, and who it is not for.

Possible fit: offices that miss scheduling and general calls and are comfortable with a line that takes only a name, a callback number and a general reason.

Not a fit yet: offices that need a BAA, need the line to book into their scheduling system (booking is not live), or serve callers who mostly speak a language other than English. The AI speaks English only today.

Where we are as a company: two paying clients so far, an Atlanta sign shop (website and lead dashboard) and an auto repair shop (a business phone line with a recorded call menu, not AI). No managed answering customers yet and no reviews. We would rather you hear the AI yourself: call (470) 971-3769.

Month to month after that.

Questions

What offices ask first.

Can an AI answer calls for a medical office?

For scheduling and general calls, yes. Aplos Front Desk says it is an AI, takes the caller's name and callback number, and sends clinical questions to your team. It is $199 a month plus a $349 launch fee, and the first 14 days are free.

Is it HIPAA compliant?

We do not sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) today. The AI does not ask for clinical details. If your calls require a BAA, a HIPAA-covered answering service is the better choice for now.

Does it book appointments?

No. Booking is not live for any customer yet. Your team calls back to schedule.

Does it speak Spanish?

Not yet. The AI speaks English only today.
