I Built a Voice AI Agent for Pre-Visit Insurance Clearance
Short summary
A Telnyx code example demonstrating a voice AI agent that handles pre-visit insurance clearance calls by collecting structured intake data, classifying urgency, creating staff-facing tickets, and sending SMS confirmations. The agent is explicitly non-clinical — it collects and routes administrative data only. Includes full setup instructions, Flask webhook code, and integration guidance for EHR and billing systems.
- •Voice AI agent uses Telnyx Gather Using AI to collect patient intake details as structured fields
- •Agent classifies urgency, creates tickets, sends SMS confirmations, and alerts billing staff via Slack
- •Explicitly non-clinical: collects and routes only; staff and payer systems make coverage decisions
Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
