Staff create a recall tickler and assign it to Kickcall. The AI calls the patient, helps them book, updates the tickler, and hands off to your team if they can't be reached.
In Oscar Pro, a tickler is the task and reminder tool your staff already use. AI recall tickler calls turn those ticklers into recall reminders by phone: staff fill in a short recall template, assign the tickler to Kickcall, and Kickcall calls the patient and writes the result back to the tickler.
How do AI recall reminders work in Oscar Pro?
It starts with a tickler your staff already know how to write. A receptionist creates a recall tickler for a patient due for a check-up, assigns it to Kickcall and moves on. Kickcall calls the patient, books the visit in Oscar Pro, and writes "appointment booked" back on the tickler.
Which ticklers does Kickcall pick up?
Only Oscar Pro ticklers assigned to the Kickcall user that start with the recall label from the template. Ticklers for other staff, or without the label, are left alone. Kickcall waits for the due date in the tickler, follows its number of tries, and stops as soon as the patient books.
What is a tickler in Oscar Pro?
A tickler is Oscar Pro's built-in task and reminder tool. Staff create one from a patient's chart with a service date, priority, the person it is assigned to and a message, then update its status as work is done. Kickcall works inside that same tool, so nothing new has to be learned.
What should a recall tickler include?
Four short lines: the recall label, the due date, how many tries to make, and who should take over if the patient can't be reached. For example: KICKCALL: RECALL, Due: 2026-11-15, Tries: 3, If no answer, hand off to: Reception. The patient comes from the Oscar Pro chart the tickler is created in.
How does Kickcall know a tickler is a recall reminder?
Staff start the tickler with the short recall label from the template. Kickcall reads every tickler assigned to it with a private AI model, confirms it is a recall before calling, and leaves anything unclear for staff, so an Oscar Pro task is never mistaken for something else.
