SimboVara: AI Phone Copilot for Healthcare

SimboVara is a multilingual AI front office phone copilot for healthcare teams. It answers inbound calls in about two seconds and scales to many simultaneous calls. It automates common front desk workflows so your staff can focus on patients who need a human. You also get a clear dashboard to view, search, and manage every interaction.

Quick context: SimboVara is built on the same platform as SimboConnect. SimboVara is inbound first with a fast self-serve setup and transparent plans. Advanced outbound programs are part of SimboConnect.

Proactive outbound programs are available in SimboConnect when you need them

4) Architecture and Operating Model

Human like front end with an automation back end

On the front end, SimboVara talks like a person. On the back end, it runs workflows that match your practice rules. It uses intent detection, dialog control, and strict guardrails to keep answers consistent and safe.

Multi agent system with seamless handoffs

Specialized agents handle different jobs, similar to a call center with experts for FAQs, intake, routing, and after hours logic. Handoffs happen in milliseconds, so callers do not notice.

Workflow design and customization

You define outcomes and rules. SimboVara mirrors your current process rather than forcing a rigid IVR menu. The dashboard shows analytics and end to end communications so you can improve over time.

Knowledge sources

You choose what the copilot is allowed to use. Typical sources include your public website, patient instructions, office handbook, policy sheets, and approved answers. The system answers only from these sources to protect accuracy and brand voice.

High concurrency and speed

The platform is engineered for very high call volumes with rapid pickup to reduce holds and handle spikes.

Security and compliance

Operations use healthcare grade safeguards including encryption, role based access, and audit logs. The platform uses a Symbolic RAG approach and strict answer control to protect patient data.

5) Day One Deliverables

360 degree dashboard. Tasks, search, filters, analytics in one workspace
Unified communications. One view across phone and text
Full audit trail. Audio, transcript, and AI summary on every call
Admin controls. Manage users, locations, on call schedules, holidays, and coverage rules
Mobile apps. On call doctors and staff can work from anywhere
Self serve setup. Create an account in minutes. Typical go live is 2 to 5 days after you configure flows

6) Conversational Experience and Personalization

Voice, tone, and personality

Choose how the copilot sounds and behaves. Options include professional, casual, very friendly, or very conversational. You can choose from many voices or use a custom voice.

Emotion awareness and escalation

The copilot detects caller emotion. If a caller is upset, it acknowledges the concern and follows your escalation workflow. For example, it can forward to a live agent or a designated group after acknowledgment to protect patient experience and brand reputation.

Safe, consistent answers

The copilot speaks only from approved sources. It never improvises medical advice. It always includes safe disclaimers when a question is clinical in nature and offers to connect the caller to staff.

7) What Happens During a Call

SimboVara follows your rules to decide among three outcomes.

End to end automated resolution

The copilot completes the request without human involvement when the answer is available from approved sources. Examples include hours, directions, accepted insurance, provider bios, preparation instructions, and policy questions.
Asynchronous human follow up

The copilot collects details, creates a task on the dashboard, assigns it to the right staff member, and can follow up to ensure timely completion. Examples include intake for refills, records, referrals, and billing questions.
Immediate live transfer

The copilot transfers to a live human when needed. Examples include an agitated caller, a sensitive billing dispute, or a referral office that should reach a specialist.

You control the mix. Which calls resolve automatically, which become tasks, and which transfer is fully configurable.

8) Detailed Task Coverage

Office information. Hours, next opening time, holiday schedules, directions, parking, public transport, building access, Wi-Fi details
Policies. No-show, late arrival, paperwork, identification, payment, minors and guardians, language access
Insurance and billing basics. Accepted plans, where to find member ID, how to send an image of the card, how to pay a statement, where to read financial policy
Refills, records, referrals, orders. Intake the request with all required details, create a task, route to the right team, and send a confirmation
Preparation and instructions. What to bring, fasting or hydration reminders as written on your website, check in steps, portal and SMS expectations
After hours workflows. Execute coverage rules, notify the on call person, or collect a message with proper disclaimers
Spam prevention and safety. Detect and deflect spam and robocalls, enforce blocklists, and protect staff time

9) Patient Safety Model and Use of AI

Patient safety is the top priority

Now, patient safety is the most important principle for us. SimboConnect is not a ChatGPT wrapper, an agent that simply forwards every patient to ChatGPT or similar technologies and lets them handle everything. We do not do that. We are a hybrid, multi-agent system that uses several specialized agents which we control end to end.

Where large language models are used

We do use large language models, which are the technology behind ChatGPT, but only for specific complex tasks where they add clear value. A common example is natural appointment time negotiation, where patients speak freely and the system needs to negotiate times in natural language. Even in these cases, the model operates inside strict guardrails. Patients are not placed directly into open-ended model sessions.

Why we avoid open-ended use of general models

This is important because the underlying technology is still experimental and it can make mistakes.

Examples of risks we explicitly design against:

There have been public incidents where open-ended models gave unsafe guidance to vulnerable individuals. Even if such events are rare, for example 1 in 100K cases, we will not take that chance with patient interactions.
Open-ended models can hallucinate. In our experience, if you keep the conversation very open, you can see wrong answers as often as 1 out of 10 cases. For a front office, a wrong address, wrong clinic hours, or wrong information taken from a website is unacceptable.

Our control strategy

To prevent these failure modes, we built a hybrid model with strict answer control. SimboConnect uses our own technology stack to control each and every answer that the agent gives to a patient. If a question falls outside approved sources or workflows, the system prefers to not answer immediately rather than risk giving a wrong answer. In practice, that can mean collecting details and creating a task for staff, or escalating the call according to your rules.

Patented core technology

The foundation of this approach is our Brain Inspired Spoken Language Understanding technology. We hold four patents on this technology. It powers intent detection, dialog control, and safe execution of workflows so that answers are consistent, traceable, and aligned with policy.
