Doctors’ practices in India. An AI that answers your practice’s calls when every line is busy

When the lines are busy or the practice is closed, Vicem answers and takes a clear message.

In India, you give out a Vicem number and pick up in the app when you want to talk. Callers there usually speak Hindi and English, and Vicem answers each one in their own language.

What your callers ask

  • “I need an appointment this week.”
  • “Are my test results back?”
  • “Can I get a repeat prescription?”
  • “Are you open on Saturday?”

How it works in India

  1. Give out your Vicem number

    Put your Vicem number on your website, card and profiles, and pick up in the app when you want to talk.

Callers in India usually speak Hindi and English. Vicem answers each caller in their own language, in any of 37 languages, and says it’s an AI in that language too.

After hours and urgent calls

Vicem answers when the practice is closed, and when a caller says it’s urgent, it tells you right away. It can share the out-of-hours advice you give it.

For a real emergency, you can have Vicem tell callers to hang up and dial 112.

Appointments and requests

Vicem takes the appointment request: the patient, the reason and the times that suit them. Your team confirms the time.

An example call. Sam is an example name; yours says your name.

How a call goes

  2. Caller

    Thank you, Tom. I’ve noted mornings this week. The practice will call you to confirm a time.
