Choosing the right AI receptionist for your practice

Not all AI receptionists are built for Australian general practices. From privacy and PMS integration to the warmth of every conversation, there are critical differences that impact safety, performance, and patient experience.

An essential day-to-day feature for any medical centre

The AI Receptionist is not only saving our reception team time, but our bookings have also increased because fewer calls are slipping through the cracks. It has made scheduling smoother for both our team and our patients and we are no longer stuck juggling calls while trying to help patients at the desk.

Frequently Asked
Questions

A patient checking in at a practice front desk

How does Helen, Healthengine's AI Receptionist, work?

Helen is your AI-powered receptionist, available 24/7 to support your front desk. She answers patients calls, manages new and existing patient bookings and cancellations, and seamlessly transfers any complex requests to your team. That means no missed calls, no voicemails, just a smarter and more responsive patient experience.

Will Helen work with my PMS and phone system?

Helen is designed to work with most major PMS platforms, including Best Practice and Pracsoft. She also works with many existing phone systems using IVR and call forwarding. No hardware is required, and our team will work closely with your phone provider to coordinate setup. If you're unsure about compatibility, we're happy to assess your setup and guide you through the next steps.

Can Helen answer more than one call at a time?

Yes. Helen can handle multiple calls simultaneously with no busy tones or queues. Your practice remains responsive, even during peak times.

What happens if there is downtime?

If there is a temporary issue, Helen will let the caller know and transfer the call to your team. You remain in control at all times. You can also request to disable Helen instantly, with no involvement needed from your phone provider.

What does Helen sound like?

Helen has a warm, natural voice that is easy to understand. Voice customisation is not available yet, but it is planned for a future release.

What is Smart Transfers and how does it work?

Smart Transfers is Helen's handover feature for GP reception teams. When a call needs a human, Helen passes it across with the caller's context, the reason for the call, and a summary of the conversation so far, all visible inside your Healthengine Practice Admin account before reception picks up, and before the phone even rings. No cold transfers. No patients repeating themselves. Just faster, calmer calls. Smart Transfers is part of the AI features Healthengine is thoughtfully rolling out for practices, with your team in control of every conversation.
