MORE ABOUT HEYLIAA

Setup, integrations, privacy, and day-to-day use

How does Heyliaa connect with our existing systems?

Heyliaa is designed to work alongside the tools a clinic already uses, including phone systems, calendars, EMR or EHR platforms, and administrative workflows. The exact connection method depends on the system and the access it supports. During setup, the team reviews compatibility, available integrations, and any clinic-specific requirements before a workflow goes live.

What information does our clinic provide during setup?

Implementation typically begins with the clinic’s hours, locations, providers, appointment types, frequently asked questions, call scripts, escalation contacts, and administrative rules. The clinic reviews and approves the workflow. Teams can start with one use case and refine it using monitored outcomes before expanding.

Can we decide which calls are transferred to staff?

Yes. Transfer and escalation rules are configured around the clinic’s approved procedures. A clinic can define which requests are handled administratively, which go to a particular queue or staff member, and which must be transferred immediately. Requests involving clinical judgment remain with qualified clinic personnel.

Does Heyliaa replace our front-desk team?

No. Heyliaa is intended to support front-desk staff by handling suitable repetitive tasks and periods of high call volume. Staff remain responsible for clinical decisions, exceptions, oversight, and the patient interactions that benefit from human attention.

Can we begin with only one agent or workflow?

Yes. A clinic can begin with call answering, appointment scheduling, patient intake, fax and referral handling, or another defined administrative workflow. Additional agents can be introduced after the initial process is reviewed and the team is comfortable with the results.

How is patient information protected?

Heyliaa uses safeguards intended for healthcare administrative workflows, including access controls, auditability, and encryption in transit and at rest. Contractual and technical requirements vary by clinic and jurisdiction, so organizations should review the security documentation and applicable agreements during procurement.
