AI calling for clinic appointment reminders

Confirm appointments by phone, remind patients before their visit, and capture requests to reschedule.

The problem

A busy front desk can miss callbacks and reminder calls. Some patients hear twice, others do not hear at all, and reschedule requests can get lost between shifts. An unused appointment slot cannot always be filled in time.

How Vaanicall runs it

  1. Day-before confirmation call

    The system places a call to the patient the day before their appointment, confirming the date, time, and location. The patient can confirm or request a reschedule in the same call.

  2. Reschedule captured as callback

    If the patient needs a different slot, the preferred day and time are extracted as structured fields and a callback task is raised for the front desk — so no reschedule request is dropped.

  3. Results-ready notification

    When a diagnostic result is ready, an outbound call notifies the patient and either confirms a collection visit or directs them to contact the clinic — reducing inbound call load on the front desk.

  4. Post-visit feedback call

    After the appointment, a short feedback call captures the patient's experience as structured ratings and an open verbatim — giving the clinic actionable satisfaction data without a manual survey.

What you get

Compliance

Compliance

  • DPDP consent: patient contact data is held under a recorded consent action with timestamp, and erasure requests are honoured on request.
  • TRAI calling window: all outbound calls dial only within 09:00–21:00 IST.
  • Audit log: every call action, extraction outcome, and consent event is written to the immutable audit log.

Questions, answered

Yes — Indian customer data is stored in an India region as a platform baseline, in line with DPDP requirements. This is not a configurable option; it is the default and only deployment for Indian data. A self-hosted deployment path is under evaluation for future releases (roadmap).
