For imaging centers & outpatient radiology

The patient holding an MRI order just booked the imaging center down the road, because nobody picked up to explain the prep.

Turn the orders you were already sent into booked scans, through reads, lunch, and after hours.

The front of house in a center
What it is

An answered line, in your center’s voice

Imaging runs on other people's orders. The patient calls whoever answers first, and your scanner sits idle while theirs fills. We answer, capture the order, walk them through prep, and send your booking link.

Where it leaks

Every center in this specialty loses the same four ways

None of them is a staffing problem you can hire your way out of, which is why they persist.

The referral goes to whoever answers firstA referring physician hands the patient an order and a choice of where to take it. They call down the list until a human picks up.
Prep questions eat the phonesEvery modality has its own rules: fasting, contrast, no metal, arrive-early windows. These calls are long, identical, and run down your staff.
Price shopping happens before you ever meet themImaging is one of the few things patients shop on price. If the answer needs a callback, they have already called two other centers.
An empty scanner slot never comes backScanner time is your most expensive asset. A no-show leaves a hole nobody fills, because filling it means working a waitlist by hand.

A normal day

Callers do the weirdest things.

Callers do the weirdest things.A highlight reel from the front desk.
Exhibit A, B, and C.Asks if you're open on the one holiday you're obviously closed for. Wants directions to a location three towns over. Asks the exact question your voicemail greeting already answers, twice.
Every front desk has a folder like this.It's basically local business folklore at this point. Somebody should publish a book.
Cart Gaze answers all of it the same calm way.No sigh, no eye-roll, no story for the break room. Just a straight answer, every single time.
Weird question, real answer.Every caller gets treated like the first person to ever ask, because as far as it's concerned, they might be.

FAQs

Fair questions

A consultation in a center
It captures the study. You tell us which modalities you run and what each one needs, and the line captures the ordered study first, then sends your booking link for that study. Prep goes out matched to that study rather than as one generic message. Anything it cannot place cleanly gets routed to your team instead of guessed at.
These builds are HIPAA-aware and sit on BAA-backed vendors, and we run No-PHI by default. The line takes only what it needs to schedule the study and confirm it, and nothing beyond that. Prior authorization and anything clinical stays with your staff. We’re glad to walk your team through exactly what data is touched and where it lives before you commit. HIPAA-aware means built on BAA-backed vendors; it isn’t a substitute for your own compliance review.
No commitment up front. You start with a free Growth Leak Audit on your own numbers, then hear a test agent on a forwarded number within about three business days, before it ever touches your main line. Setup starts around $3,000 and scales with your center, call volume, and integrations. Velaire Health care plans come as Recovery at $599/mo, Growth at $1,199/mo, and Pro at $1,999+/mo, set by your call volume and how many follow-up systems you want running. It goes live only after QA passes and you approve it.
