# New Patient Intake & Chart Prep for ENT Practice Managers

> AI sends the intake packet via athenahealth, ingests responses, requests records from prior providers via HIE/fax, verifies insurance, and pre-populates the chart — patient arrives and the provider is ready.

- **Role:** [ENT Practice Manager](https://calish.com/workflows/for/ent-practice-manager/)
- **Category:** [Operations & Workflow](https://calish.com/workflows/category/operations-and-workflow/)

## The Problem

New Otolaryngology patients arrive with incomplete forms, missing records from referring providers, and outdated insurance — the MA spends the first 20 minutes of the visit doing data entry.

## What We Build

AI sends the intake packet via athenahealth, ingests responses, requests records from prior providers via HIE/fax, verifies insurance, and pre-populates the chart — patient arrives and the provider is ready.

## How It Works

1. **Discovery call.** We map your current new patient intake & chart prep process and identify where AI saves the most time.
2. **Build & integrate.** We build the workflow and connect it to the tools you already use — no software changes required.
3. **Review & refine.** You review the results, we fine-tune until it matches your standards, then it runs on autopilot.
