- Reminders and Recall: Automated confirmations and voice recalls keep provider schedules full and reduce no-shows.

Built for Healthcare, with Data Privacy at its Core
Larger practices carry larger compliance obligations. Kickcall is HIPAA compliant and SOC 2 certified, and every voice interaction is end-to-end encrypted. Kickcall connects to NextGen Enterprise through NextGen’s own API, so the connection is authorized by your team and limited to what the integration needs. Kickcall signs a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) on request. Full details are at security.kickcall.ai.
FAQs
1. Is Kickcall’s integration officially approved by NextGen Enterprise?
Yes. NextGen Healthcare has officially approved Kickcall’s API access, allowing us to securely connect with your NextGen Enterprise account.
2. We use Enterprise PM for scheduling. Where do Kickcall’s bookings land?
Kickcall books into the scheduling source your practice has configured, so appointments appear where your front desk already works. We confirm your scheduling setup during scoping, before any calls go live.
3. How does Kickcall know which provider, location, and visit type to book?
It follows the rules already built into your schedule: provider availability, appointment types, visit lengths, and new versus established patient requirements. Callers who ask for “my last provider” or “the closest office” are matched against your real data, not guessed.
4. Can Kickcall handle calls for many providers across multiple locations?
Yes. Each location can have its own hours, providers, and call routing, all managed from one account. Callers are directed to the right site, and overflow or after-hours calls are covered without adding staff.
5. Is Kickcall the same as NextGen’s Intelligent Agent or Ambient Assist?
No, they do different jobs. NextGen’s Intelligent Agent and Ambient Assist support your providers and staff inside the EHR, with voice commands and documentation. Kickcall answers your patients’ phone calls and handles scheduling, refill requests, and routing. The two work side by side.
6. What happens when a caller has a clinical or sensitive issue?
Kickcall transfers the call live to the right person or department, with a summary of what the patient has already said, so nobody has to start over. You define which situations count as urgent or clinical.
7. Can we start with one location or department first?
Yes. Locations are configured separately, so many organizations begin with one site or call type, then expand once their team is comfortable.
8. Our compliance team will want a vendor review. What can you provide?
Kickcall is HIPAA compliant and SOC 2 certified, all voice interactions are end-to-end encrypted, and we sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) on request. Security documentation is available at security.kickcall.ai, and your account manager can support questionnaires and reviews.
9. How does Kickcall serve multilingual patient populations?
It replies in the caller’s language automatically, with 42+ languages supported. That helps community health centers, FQHCs, and multi-site groups serving diverse patients, with no separate language lines to maintain.
10. How long does it take to go live for a multi-location organization?
It depends on API authorization, the number of locations and providers, and how much routing logic you want configured. Your account manager provides a clear timeline at kickoff and updates you throughout.
11. Is there a long-term contract?
No. You can cancel at any time with no fees or penalties.
