AI Receptionist · Pain Medicine & Rheumatology

The most sensitive medication calls in medicine, handled with care.

Your line takes calls that no other clinic's does: someone in pain who has run out of their medication, a caller braced to be judged before they have finished a sentence, a script that cannot be discussed on the phone. LUNA's AI receptionist answers for your practice, after hours, on overflow when your team is busy, or around the clock: warm with every caller, silent on every controlled medicine, and built on the actual regulatory obligations of Australian pain and rheumatology practice.

After-hoursOverflowFull 24/7you choose, changeable any time

Why the line matters here

The caller who dreads ringing you is the one who most needs it to go right.

Pain doesn't keep office hours

A flare that worsens overnight, medication that has run out before the weekend, a caller who is hurting and anxious: these calls arrive after hours and on weekends. A voicemail sends them elsewhere or nowhere. The agent picks up, meets them with warmth, and captures the enquiry properly for your team.

More than a message pad

The agent answers questions about your services, your specialists and how referrals and booking work from an approved knowledge base, then captures name, number, reason and urgency, or books directly into Cliniko where enabled. It knows a pain and rheumatology clinic runs on referrals, and captures that cleanly.

Controlled-medicine discipline, built in

A caller asking whether you prescribe a particular opioid, or wanting a repeat texted through: these are the calls a generic bot gets catastrophically wrong. The agent never discusses, confirms or promises a controlled-medicine script. It captures with zero judgement and routes to the treating practitioner.

Restraint is the whole point

The word she will never say, and the caller she will never judge.

Most of what makes this line safe is what the agent refuses to do. It does not name a medicine, price a script, or comment on why a prescription might be held up. It captures with warmth, routes to the treating practitioner, and stays entirely out of the prescribing conversation. Here is where that discipline shows.

She never discusses a controlled-medicine script

Whether the clinic prescribes a particular opioid or other controlled medicine, the dose, the renewal, or whether a repeat can be arranged: none of it is confirmed, named, dated or commented on over the phone. It is a consultation matter for the practitioner. The agent says so plainly and captures the request for the treating team.

Zero judgement, every time

A caller who says "I know this sounds like I'm drug-seeking" is met with warmth, never with an echo of that self-critical language and never with a hint of suspicion. Their request is captured as a priority message for the treating practitioner and treated as health information under full privacy. Nobody is made to feel like a problem.

Real-time monitoring stays with the prescriber

If a caller says their prescription is being blocked or queries what a monitoring system is showing, the agent does not reference, interpret or comment on real-time prescription monitoring or anyone's medicine history. That is the prescriber's domain. It captures the message for the practitioner and takes details, nothing more.

Hear it yourself

Hear it handle the hard calls. Ring the clinic that doesn't exist.

Stillpoint Pain & Rheumatology is our fictional Sydney practice, invented so you can test the agent without any real patients or practitioners involved. Ask it the calls you dread: ask it to confirm you prescribe a particular opioid, to text a repeat through, or to tell you what a monitoring system is showing. The interesting part is how it refuses, with warmth and without judgement.

Fictional practice, real agent. Nothing you say reaches a real patient or clinician.

How she's trained

Five layers deep. From reception craft to your own protocols.

Reception craft

Natural Australian conversation, a calm and unhurried register for callers in pain or distress, proper message-taking, booking discipline, and the golden rule underneath it all: if it isn't configured or approved, she says so and captures the question rather than improvising.

The rules of all Australian medicine

AHPRA and National Board advertising guidelines, the Privacy Act and state health-records law, TGA advertising rules, Medicare and fees accuracy, emergency escalation, honest AI disclosure, and recording-consent statutes in all 8 states.

The pain and rheumatology canon

The Schedule 8 and Monitored Medicines Prescribing Codes, the guidance on prescribing drugs of dependence in practice, the SafeScript and real-time prescription monitoring framework, and the Medical Board's Good Medical Practice, distilled into hard rules: never discuss, name, confirm or date a controlled medicine, never comment on monitoring, capture with zero judgement, and triage the red flags that a person on immunosuppression cannot afford to wait on.

Your practice

Your pain medicine specialists and rheumatologists and their exact titles, your services and procedures, your referral and fees policy and hours, your controlled-medicine and repeat-script stance, plus your own materials: pre-procedure instructions, patient information sheets, aftercare notes, and a specialised go-live questionnaire about how your practice actually runs.

Continuous improvement, versioned

Every month, every call is audited: drop-off points, unanswered question types, improvement candidates. Changes are approved with you and versioned into the agent, and regulation-change monitoring updates the rules when guidance moves. Better every month, never changed without sign-off, and never self-retraining on its own.

The guardrails are the product

Go on. Try to make it misbehave.

Every generic voice bot can answer a phone. The question your board, your indemnifier and AHPRA would ask is what it says on a recorded line at 9pm, to a caller in pain, with nobody supervising. Tap a question to see how Luna handles it.

Traceable, versioned, maintained

Every rule cites its source. Every agent knows its version.

The agent's behaviour is built from layered, versioned rule sets distilled from the primary sources: the Schedule 8 and Monitored Medicines Prescribing Codes, the guidance on prescribing drugs of dependence, the SafeScript and real-time monitoring framework, the Medical Board's Good Medical Practice, and the Australian Privacy Principles. When a regulator updates guidance, we know which rules are affected and which agents need updating.

From go-ahead to go-live

Live on your number in about four weeks.

Configure

Your specialists and their correct titles, services and procedures, referral and fees policy, hours, controlled-medicine and repeat-script stance, emergency pathways and escalation contacts, plus your own materials: pre-procedure instructions, patient information sheets, aftercare notes. A specialised go-live questionnaire makes sure every answer the agent gives is yours, not a generic one.

Assemble and attack

Your agent is built from the approved compliance layers plus your configuration, then attacked with a pain-and-rheumatology test script: controlled-medicine probes, repeat-script pressure, monitoring queries and immunosuppression red flags included. It must pass every probe before it ever answers a real call.

Go live, stay current

Your number routes to the agent, changeable in seconds, never a dead line. Monthly call reviews and regulation-change monitoring included.

We build around what you already run

Cliniko, Best Practice, Medical Director, Genie, Gentu, Halaxy, Coreplus, your dental suite, whatever runs your day: we design the agent around your systems, never the other way round. You don't change how your practice works to suit us.

Direct integration

Where your practice software has API access, Luna books and writes back in real time. Cliniko is live today, with more connectors on the roadmap.

Built around your workflow

No API? We wire structured, qualified messages into your existing inbox, CRM or task list, formatted exactly the way your team already works.

Standalone when needed

Locked-down legacy system? We stand up a clean parallel capture and booking layer for you, and your team reconciles it in minutes, not hours.

Fair questions

The things practice managers actually ask us.

Does the caller know it's an AI?

Always. Every call opens by saying it's an AI assistant and that the call is recorded, and it confirms it plainly if asked. That disclosure is fixed at the compliance layer; no clinic setup can remove it, which also satisfies the strictest Australian recording-consent standard.

Where do recordings and transcripts go?

They contain health information, so they're treated that way: moved to Australian-hosted storage promptly after each call, deleted from the voice platform, delivered only to the contacts you nominate, and retained for a period you set. The full detail is on our data handling and security page, and you get it in writing as a one-page summary.

How does it handle a controlled-medicine or repeat-script call?

It never discusses, names, confirms or dates a controlled medicine, and it never promises, refuses or arranges a repeat. Prescriptions are the practitioner's decision, so the agent says so plainly, captures the request with warmth and zero judgement as a priority message for the treating team, and takes details. It also never comments on real-time prescription monitoring or anyone's medicine history. That keeps you inside the Schedule 8 prescribing codes and the monitoring framework.

Will it triage a red flag for a patient on our books?

Yes. A caller on immunosuppression with a fever, or any of the emergency presentations you configure, is sent straight to 000 or the nearest emergency department. The agent does not reassure that it sounds like a flare or that it can wait, does not assess further, and raises an urgent alert to your nominated contact. It gives no medicine, dose or timing advice, ever.

Can it book directly into our software?

Where your practice software supports it (Cliniko first, more connectors coming), yes: real bookings into your calendar. Pain and rheumatology run on referrals, so the agent captures the referral pathway cleanly and books where your rules allow. Otherwise it captures qualified, structured enquiries for your team to action first thing.
