Front Desk · Answering Now

The new patient who couldn’t get through booked with the practice that answered.

A dedicated, HIPAA-trained agent answers every patient call in your practice's name — books and reschedules appointments in your software, handles new-patient intake, answers hours and insurance questions, and captures after-hours messages routed to your on-call provider by your own protocol. Live in 5 days.

The Cost Of A Missed Call

A new patient is worth thousands. A voicemail is worth nothing.

01

New patients don’t leave messages

They call the next practice on the list and book there. One missed new-patient call is a multi-year patient relationship — and its lifetime value — gone to a competitor.

02

Your front desk is already buried

Checking patients in, verifying insurance, working the lobby. The phone rings through to voicemail during the exact hours patients are trying to reach you.

03

After hours, the office goes dark

Reschedules, new-patient inquiries, and questions pile up until morning — and some of those callers won’t be there when you open.

What We Handle

The front-desk phone work — handled, in your name.

Scheduling and intake, not clinical decisions. Your agent books patients and follows your protocols.

Your greeting, your practice. Patients never know it's a service.

Appointment booking & reschedules

Directly in your practice-management software, by your scheduling rules.

New-patient intake

Registration details captured and forms sent, ready for their first visit.

Hours, location & insurance FAQs

The routine questions answered from the script you provide.

After-hours message capture

Confirmations and reminders that keep your chairs and rooms full.

The Difference

A dedicated agent who books patients — and stays in their lane.

Typical Answering Service

Takes a message, hopes it’s not urgent

  • Rotating stranger reads a generic script
  • Can’t book — “the office will call you back”
  • Bills you by the minute, every call
  • No PMS access, no scheduling
Your Zayup Agent

Books the patient, follows your protocol

  • The same dedicated, HIPAA-trained agent
  • Books & reschedules in your software
  • Flat monthly rate — no per-minute meter
  • Routes urgencies to your on-call provider — never gives medical advice
No Migration

We work inside your practice software.

Your team keeps the same workflow. We answer, book, and update inside the systems you already use.

Straight Pricing

What covering your phones actually costs.

Here’s how the three options stack up for a practice.

In-House Front Desk
$3,500–5,000 /mo

loaded

  • Salary, payroll tax, benefits, PTO
  • Business hours only — after-hours dark
  • Sick days, turnover, retraining
  • Already buried by the lobby
Per-Minute Answering Service
$1.30–1.75 /minute
  • Bill grows every time the phone rings
  • Often $500–$1,000+/mo at real volume
  • Rotating strangers read a script
  • Takes messages — doesn’t book patients

Final rate depends on your call volume and coverage hours — we’ll quote it on a 15-minute call. A single new patient’s lifetime value can cover months of the desk.

FAQ

Medical & dental answering, explained.

Per-minute medical answering services charge $1.30–$1.75/min, so your bill grows every time the phone rings — often $500–$1,000+ per month at real volume, and most only take messages. An in-house front-desk hire costs $3,500–$5,000/mo loaded and covers business hours only. Zayup places a dedicated, HIPAA-trained agent from $1,500/mo flat who books appointments directly in your practice-management software.
Yes. We sign a Business Associate Agreement with every practice we serve, and our agents are trained on patient-privacy and HIPAA basics before they take a call.
No. Our agents handle scheduling, intake, and messages — not clinical decisions. For after-hours urgency, we follow your written escalation protocol and route the caller to your on-call provider. We never assess symptoms or give medical advice.
We work inside your system — including Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft, SimplePractice, Kareo, and Jane — booking appointments and logging calls directly, with no migration.
Around five working days from your first call. You start with a one-week paid trial and can cancel anytime — no long contract.
