The problem
A patient with a cracked tooth won't wait on hold while your receptionist is flat out
Your reception desk is the bottleneck. During clinic hours, your receptionist is checking patients in, processing Medicare claims, and dealing with health fund queries, all while the phone rings. Lunch breaks, staff sick days, and after-hours calls mean even more missed calls. New patients who can't get through will book with the practice down the road.
- 68% of patients who can't reach a dental clinic on the first call will try a different practice
- The average dental practice misses 15-20 calls per week during peak clinic hours
- A full-time receptionist costs A$3,500+/month, and still cannot answer when they are with a patient at the desk
- Every missed new patient registration is worth A$700+ in lifetime value

How Dental Clinics Use Jodie
Emergency Toothache
The situation: A patient calls at 7pm with a severe toothache that started after dinner. They are in real pain and want to know if they can get in first thing tomorrow.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers straight away, asks about the pain level, when it started, and whether there is any swelling. You get a text with all the details so you can fit them in as an emergency appointment first thing.
Calls During Clinic
The situation: Your dentist is mid-procedure and the receptionist is processing a health fund claim for the last patient. Three calls come in at once: a new patient wanting to register, a reschedule, and someone asking about gap payments for a crown.
Jodie handles it: Jodie handles all three calls at once. She takes the new patient details, processes the reschedule request, and notes the health fund query. Your team gets a summary for each call.
New Patient Registration
The situation: A family has just moved to the area and calls to register. They want to know if your practice accepts their Medibank Private cover and whether their kids are eligible for the Child Dental Benefits Schedule.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, welcomes them, collects their details, and notes their health fund and the children's ages. You get the registration details and can check CDBS eligibility before calling them back.
After-Hours Emergency
The situation: A parent calls at 8pm because their child copped a cricket ball to the mouth and knocked a tooth loose. They need to know what to do and whether you can see them urgently.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, asks about the injury, gives reassuring guidance about keeping the area clean, and gets all the details so you can arrange an emergency appointment as soon as the clinic opens.
