# New Patient Intake & Chart Prep for Veterinary Office Managers with PetDesk

> AI sends the intake packet via AVImark, ingests responses, requests records from prior providers via HIE/fax, verifies insurance, and pre-populates the chart — patient arrives and the provider is ready. Purpose-built for teams running PetDesk — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## The Problem

New Veterinary Medicine patients arrive with incomplete forms, missing records from referring providers, and outdated insurance — the MA spends the first 20 minutes of the visit doing data entry.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

AI sends the intake packet via AVImark, ingests responses, requests records from prior providers via HIE/fax, verifies insurance, and pre-populates the chart — patient arrives and the provider is ready. Purpose-built for teams running PetDesk — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

## PetDesk Integration Approach

1. **Audit your PetDesk configuration.** We map the specific PetDesk objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your veterinary medicine practice.
2. **Build on the PetDesk API or agent.** Integration happens inside PetDesk — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.
3. **Human-in-the-loop handoff.** Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in PetDesk with full context — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
