AI Operations — Live 24/7

Your patients can always get through

Turnless answers your practice phone, books appointments, and handles patient enquiries with the care and professionalism your patients expect.

No credit card required · Live in under 10 minutes

The problem

Every missed call is money walking out the door.

01

Constant phone congestion

Medical receptionists juggle walk-ins, paperwork, and a phone that never stops ringing. Patients get put on hold or can't get through at all.

02

Urgent calls mixed with routine ones

When every call goes to the same line, it's hard to prioritise. A patient needing an urgent appointment waits behind someone chasing a repeat script.

03

After-hours appointment requests

Patients often want to book outside business hours -- early morning, lunch breaks, or evenings. Without someone answering, they call another practice.

How it works

Turnless handles the full conversation — start to finish.

02

Appointment booking with full patient details

Medicare and bulk billing handled correctly

Turnless communicates your practice's billing policy -- bulk billing, mixed billing, or private -- and always reminds patients to bring their Medicare card. It handles HICAPS, DVA Gold and White cards, and concession card questions without putting patients on hold.

Telehealth booking with Medicare eligibility

Turnless books telehealth appointments and correctly advises patients on Medicare eligibility -- established patients seen in the last 12 months qualify for a rebated telehealth consult. New patients are directed to an in-person first visit.

Urgency triage and emergency escalation

Turnless recognises red-flag symptoms -- chest pain, stroke signs, difficulty breathing, suspected overdose -- and immediately directs callers to triple zero. For urgent but non-emergency situations, it offers same-day appointments or routes to the practice nurse.

Chronic Disease Management and care plan enquiries

When patients ask about care plans, EPC referrals, or allied health under Medicare, Turnless explains the process and books them a longer GP appointment -- without your reception team needing to explain it every time.

Repeat script and referral requests handled correctly

Turnless never approves repeat scripts over the phone. It explains that the doctor needs to review the request and books a short telehealth appointment -- keeping your practice compliant and your patients informed.

Two-way SMS and patient identity verification

Patients can text your practice number and get an instant AI reply. Before discussing any appointment or clinical detail, Turnless verifies identity with name, date of birth, and a second identifier -- protecting patient privacy on every call.

Included in your plan

AI Clinical Scribe — built in

Other practices pay $99–199 per clinician per month for a separate AI scribe. With Turnless, it's included — because your calls, bookings, and notes all live in one connected system.

Knows your patient before you do

Your AI receptionist already captured why they called. That context feeds into the note — so the AI starts with full context, not a blank slate.

Learns your writing style

Uses your recent approved notes as examples. Over time, generated notes mirror your phrasing and terminology — not generic AI output.

Notes become next steps

Generate referral letters, patient summaries, and follow-up tasks from your approved note. For GPs: automatic MBS item suggestions.
