Lumay for Healthcare
HIPAA-ready AI voice agents that schedule appointments, verify patients, and handle after-hours calls — so clinical staff focus on care.
Healthcare providers lose patients and revenue every day to missed calls, long hold times, and after-hours voicemail. Front desks are overwhelmed. Patients get frustrated. Appointments go unfilled. Lumay deploys a HIPAA-compliant AI voice agent that answers every call, books appointments, verifies patient identity, and escalates urgent cases — 24 hours a day.
Every missed call is a missed appointment
The average medical practice misses a significant share of inbound calls — particularly during peak morning hours and after 5pm. Most of those callers do not leave a voicemail. They call a competitor.
An AI voice agent solves this without adding front-desk headcount. It answers every call within one second, identifies the caller, checks appointment availability, books the slot, and sends an SMS confirmation. Complex clinical questions and urgent cases are escalated to a human with full call context — no repeated information required.
For healthcare organisations where compliance is non-negotiable, Lumay's HIPAA mode hides sensitive data from logs, requires consent before recording, encrypts sessions end-to-end, and maintains a full audit trail for every patient interaction.
Core capabilities for healthcare providers
| Capability | What it does | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
Appointment Scheduling | Books, confirms, reschedules, and cancels appointments during the call. Validates date, time, doctor name, and patient details. Syncs to your calendar system in real time. | Front desk call volume drops. Every appointment slot is filled without manual intervention. |
Patient Identity Verification | Validates callers using account number, phone number (E.164 format), or date of birth with structured state field validation. | Ensures patient records are matched correctly before any information is accessed or shared. |
HIPAA Compliance Mode | Hides PII from logs, requires explicit consent before call recording begins, encrypts sessions end-to-end, and marks all sensitive tools as restricted. | Clinical compliance is built in — not added later. |
Patient Sentiment Monitoring | Analyses patient sentiment in real time at 30-second intervals. Detects distress, confusion, or urgency and auto-escalates with warm transfer context. | Anxious or upset patients reach a human immediately — no dropped calls during critical moments. |
After-Hours Routing | Time-based routing uses IANA timezone data. Business hours route to staff; after-hours to the AI agent. Zero missed calls, zero voicemail drop-off. | Patients who call after 5pm are answered — not sent to voicemail and not lost. |
Stereo Call Recording | Every call recorded in stereo WAV with patient on one channel and agent on the other. Exportable in WAV, MP3, or Opus. | Full call review capability for quality assurance, complaints handling, and compliance audits. |
From patient call to confirmed appointment
Patient calls
The AI greets the patient with your practice's name, asks for their name, and identifies the reason for the call with a sub-1-second first response.
Identity verified
Patient identity is confirmed using account number, date of birth, or phone number. HIPAA consent is captured before any sensitive data is discussed.
Resolution or booking
The agent answers clinical questions from your knowledge base, books the appointment via calendar API, or creates a follow-up task for clinical staff.
Summary and confirmation
An SMS confirmation is sent to the patient. The session is logged with a sentiment score and a full transcript is generated for the patient record.
