Tebra (formerly Kareo) Integration: AISS Voice Agent + Scribe Setup Guide

If you’re running a clinic—whether it’s chiropractic, dermatology, podiatry, urgent care, or another specialty—you know how critical seamless workflows are. Missed calls, manual note-taking, and disjointed systems cost time and money. Tebra (formerly Kareo) users can now integrate AISS Solutions’ Voice Agent and AI Scribe to automate phone handling and clinical documentation, reducing overhead by up to 40% while improving patient experience.
This guide walks you through the step-by-step integration, with real-world examples, pricing, and ROI calculations. By the end, you’ll know exactly how to set this up in your practice.
Why Integrate AISS Voice Agent + AI Scribe with Tebra?
Before diving into the setup, let’s quantify the impact:
| Pain Point | Current Cost (Annual) | AISS Solution Impact | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Missed calls (avg. 30% rate) | $12,000 (lost revenue) | 90%+ call capture | $10,800 |
| Manual SOAP notes | 2 hrs/day x $50/hr | 80% time reduction | $29,200 |
| Front desk labor | $40,000 (salary) | 30% workload reduction | $12,000 |
Now, let’s break down the integration.
Step 1: Verify Tebra Compatibility
AISS Voice Agent and AI Scribe integrate with Tebra via API and webhooks. Confirm your Tebra plan supports:
✅ Tebra Clinical EHR (required for AI Scribe SOAP notes)
✅ Tebra Practice Management (for appointment scheduling)
✅ API Access (Admin > Settings > API Keys)
If you’re on Tebra’s Starter plan ($160/mo), upgrade to Professional ($269/mo) for full API access.Step 2: Set Up AISS Voice Agent for Tebra
Voice Agent automates inbound/outbound calls, appointment scheduling, and patient reminders—syncing directly with Tebra.
A. Configure Call Routing in Tebra
- Log in to Tebra > Settings > Phone System.
- Enable "Call Forwarding" to AISS’s dedicated number (provided during onboarding).
555-123-4567 (your clinic line) to 888-AISS-AI1.
- Set up call rules:
- After-hours: Voicemail or emergency line.
Pro Tip: Use Tebra’s "Smart Routing" to prioritize urgent calls (e.g., post-op patients) to bypass the AI and ring directly to a provider.B. Sync Voice Agent with Tebra’s Schedule
- In AISS Dashboard > Integrations > Tebra:
- Map appointment types (e.g., "New Patient" = 30 min, "Follow-up" = 15 min).
- Test the sync:
- Voice Agent should:
- Greet the caller.
- Check Tebra’s calendar in real-time.
- Book appointments without double-booking.
Real-World Example:A podiatry clinic in Miami reduced no-shows by 22% using Voice Agent’s automated reminders (SMS + voice). Their Tebra calendar auto-updated when patients rescheduled via the AI.
C. Customize Call Scripts
Voice Agent uses dynamic scripts based on specialty. Examples:
- Chiropractic:
- Dermatology:
- MedReceptionist (AI Phone): $199/month flat per practice (standalone) or $149/month bundled with any MedSiteAI website plan — one price, unlimited calls & lines, no tiers.
- Voice Agent: Custom pricing (typically $0.10–$0.30/minute for automated calls).
Step 3: Integrate AI Scribe for SOAP Notes
AI Scribe listens to patient visits, transcribes conversations, and auto-generates SOAP notes in Tebra—saving 2+ hours/day per provider.
A. Enable Audio Capture
- Hardware Setup:
- Budget option: Smartphone + lapel mic (test for background noise).
- Software Setup:
- Grant Tebra EHR access (OAuth2 authentication).
Screenshot Description:B. Map SOAP Note Templates
AI Scribe learns your documentation style. For example:
- Family Medicine:
- Objective: "BP 120/80, temp 98.6°F, throat erythema noted."
- Assessment: "Likely viral pharyngitis."
- Plan: "Rest, fluids, follow up if symptoms worsen."
- Mental Health:
- Objective: "Affect: anxious. Speech: rapid."
- Assessment: "Generalized anxiety disorder, mild."
- Plan: "CBT techniques, follow up in 4 weeks."
Pro Tip: Use Tebra’s SOAP note macros to standardize formatting. AI Scribe will adapt to these.C. Train the AI on Your Terminology
- Upload 5–10 past SOAP notes (de-identified) to AI Scribe.
- The AI learns your shorthand (e.g., "c/o" = "complains of").
- Accuracy improves to 95%+ within 2 weeks.
A 10-provider urgent care in Texas reduced charting time from 18 minutes to 3 minutes per patient using AI Scribe. Their Tebra notes were 98% accurate after 1 month of use.
Pricing Context:- AI Scribe: Bundled with MedSiteAI ($149–$799/mo) or standalone.
- Standalone: $79–$179/mo per provider — everything included, no per-note metering.
Step 4: Test the Full Workflow
Before going live, run these tests:
Test 1: Appointment Booking
- Call your clinic line.
- Voice Agent should:
- Ask for name, DOB, and reason for visit.
- Check Tebra’s calendar and book an appointment.
- Send a Tebra automated confirmation text/email.
Expected Result: Appointment appears in Tebra’s schedule within <30 seconds.Test 2: SOAP Note Generation
- Simulate a patient visit:
- AI Scribe should:
- Generate a SOAP note with ICD-10 codes (if enabled).
- Push the note to Tebra’s patient chart.
Expected Result: Note is 90%+ accurate and formatted per your template.Test 3: After-Hours Messaging
- Call after business hours.
- Voice Agent should:
- Text/email the provider via Tebra’s secure messaging.
Expected Result: Provider receives the message in <2 minutes.Step 5: Optimize for Maximum ROI
A. Reduce No-Shows with Automated Reminders
- Voice Agent calls patients 48 hours before their appointment.
- Tebra syncs confirmations/cancellations in real-time.
- Example: A med spa in California reduced no-shows from 15% to 3%, adding $8,000/month in recovered revenue.
B. Use AI Scribe for Telehealth
- Tebra + AI Scribe work seamlessly for telehealth visits.
- The AI listens to the call, generates notes, and files them in Tebra.
- Savings: $1,500/month in scribe costs (for a 5-provider practice).
C. Leverage Analytics
- AISS Dashboard shows:
- SOAP note turnaround time (target: <5 minutes).
- Patient satisfaction scores (from post-visit surveys).
Example:A dental clinic in New York used Voice Agent’s analytics to add a 3rd hygienist during peak hours (10 AM–2 PM), increasing revenue by $12,000/month.
