Stop Losing ₹45,000 Procedure Inquiries to Missed Reception Calls. Automate Patient Triage & OPD Bookings on Official WhatsApp.
Specialty clinics in dental, IVF, dermatology, and elective surgery spend heavily on Google and Practo, only to lose 60% of patient inquiries when reception desks are tied up with billing. Elcorn qualifies patient inquiries in under 15 seconds on WhatsApp, cuts consultation no-shows to under 7%, sends post-op care guides, and logs counselor calls through native Android SIMs with zero VoIP tolls.
3 Bottlenecks That Drain Private Clinic Revenue
Patients seeking elective procedures decide quickly. Where clinic patient pipelines break down:
Front-desk staff juggle walk-in registrations, pharmacy billing, and doctor files. When a patient inquires about dental implants or IVF at 11:30 AM or 8:30 PM, the clinic phone is often busy or unanswered. 65% of those patients call the next clinic on Google Maps. An automated WhatsApp workflow triages symptoms, confirms treatment interest, and books doctor OPD slots in 20 seconds.
Patients book consultations 3 to 5 days in advance, then miss the appointment when schedules change. Because receptionists rely on phone calls that patients screen, empty slots cost clinics thousands in lost doctor hours. Elcorn sends WhatsApp confirmations with clinic location pins and 1-tap confirm/reschedule buttons, recovering 40% of at-risk appointments.
After receiving estimates like ₹45,000 for LASIK, ₹1.8L for IVF, or ₹35,000 for an implant, 60% of patients leave undecided about pain, recovery, or cost. Doctors have no time to follow up, and receptionists track nothing. Elcorn runs an automated 14-day WhatsApp follow-up sequence with doctor explainer videos and 0% interest EMI options.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is patient health information (PHI) compliant with Indian DPDPA regulations and medical privacy?
Yes. Elcorn operates over the official Meta WhatsApp Business Cloud API with TLS 1.3 encryption in transit and AES-256 encryption at rest. Patient health records, treatment plans, and contact details are stored securely on Indian data centers compliant with the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA).
How does the AI triage bot prevent giving unlicensed medical diagnoses?
The conversational triage bot is strictly limited to administrative scheduling, clinic hours, doctor credentials, procedural pricing ranges, and clinic location guidance. It collects symptoms and intake preferences but explicitly defers all clinical diagnosis and prescription to the licensed doctor during the in-person consultation.
Can our patient care coordinators call patients without high cloud telephony bills?
Yes. Elcorn includes a native Android Sales & Care Dialer. Patient coordinators place calls directly through their physical clinic SIM cards with unlimited calling packs, automatically recording call duration and attaching audio recordings to the patient dossier with zero per-minute cloud telephony toll bills.
How does the system prevent doctor calendar double-booking across multiple clinic branches?
Elcorn maintains bi-directional synchronization with Google Calendar, Outlook, and clinic management software (EMRs). As soon as a patient confirms a slot on WhatsApp or at the reception desk, that time window is immediately blocked across all doctors and branch locations.
Can we send automated post-procedure medication reminders and 6-month hygiene recall campaigns?
Yes. Following a procedure, Elcorn can automatically trigger day-by-day recovery instructions, pain-management check-ins, and automated 6-month preventative cleaning or dental check-up recall broadcasts.
