Receive referrals by fax, email, or direct upload.
Turn every referral into a scheduled appointment
Insight Health is the end-to-end referral coordinator for specialty practices. We ingest referrals from fax, email, and upload, match the patient, classify the request, and write it into the right EHR queue. Then our AI phone agent and RPA agents collect missing information, coordinate with the patient and referring office, and schedule the appointment in the EHR, so referrals move from document received to visit booked without leaking into a manual queue.
