KwickPhone for Chiropractic Offices · Deposits & payment by phone

Hands on a patient, the new-patient call in pain books elsewhere

KwickPhone answers the call you can't take, locks the new-patient slot with a deposit, and reads the card number so you never touch a phone mid-adjustment.

Deposits & payment by phone for Chiropractic Offices — KwickPhone answers the phone

You're mid-adjustment, palms on someone's lumbar spine, watching for the release. The phone rings at the front. It's a new patient whose lower back seized up this morning, and they want to be seen today. Nobody can pick up because the front desk is checking another patient in and you can't break contact. By the time you wash your hands and call back, they've already found another office that answered, taken the appointment, and given them a card to hold it. You never even knew their name. The hardest calls to lose are exactly the ones you can't reach: a person in pain, ready to book, money in hand, and you're three feet away with both hands busy.

KwickPhone answers that ring on the first or second ring, every time, in English, Spanish, or Chinese. It talks like your front desk would: it asks where the pain is, whether this is a new patient, and what they're looking for. When the caller wants to lock in today's opening, KwickPhone takes a deposit or pre-payment right on the call and reads the card number into a PCI-safe payment field that you and your staff never see or hear. The slot is held, the patient is committed, and the booking is written straight into your schedule before you've finished the adjustment in the next room.

For a chiropractic office this matters more than for most trades, because your revenue lives in the new-patient exam and the multi-visit care plan that follows it. A no-show on a decompression series or a sports-injury workup isn't one lost hour; it's a whole plan of care that never started. A deposit at the moment of booking changes the math: the patient who put money down shows up, and the ones who were never serious self-select out before they ever take a slot off your table. KwickPhone makes that possible for the calls that arrive while your hands are literally occupied.

Real calls

What it sounds like for chiropractic offices.

1

A man calls at 8:10 a.m. saying he 'threw his back out' lifting a cooler and needs to be seen today. KwickPhone finds your first new-patient opening, explains the exam fee and that a deposit holds the slot, reads his card into the secure field, and confirms the appointment, so by the time you're between patients it's already booked and paid.

2

A runner training for a marathon calls about lingering hip pain and asks if she needs the full sports-injury exam. KwickPhone describes the new-patient exam in the terms you've given it, books her in, and takes the deposit, but when she asks whether her specific gait issue means she'll need orthotics, it says it can't answer that clinically and flags it for you to address at the visit.

3

A returning decompression patient calls to start the next phase of his plan and wants to pre-pay the package over the phone. KwickPhone recognizes the visit type, processes the full pre-payment PCI-safely, books the series, and notes in your system that the package is paid in advance.

4

Someone calls at 6:45 p.m. after you've closed, in pain and worried, asking if you can fit them in tomorrow. KwickPhone books the morning new-patient slot, collects the deposit so the slot is genuinely held overnight, and the appointment is waiting in your schedule when you open.

Questions
Is it actually PCI-safe to take a card over the phone this way?
Yes. KwickPhone collects the card through a PCI-compliant payment step where the number goes directly to the payment processor. The digits aren't spoken aloud to your staff, aren't kept in the call recording, and aren't stored in plain text in your system, so you avoid the real risk of card numbers floating around the front desk.
Can it tell a new patient apart from someone calling to follow up?
Yes. It asks early in the call whether they've been seen before and what they need, then routes them to the right kind of visit and the right deposit or payment for that visit. A new-patient exam, a decompression series, and a quick follow-up are all handled differently.
What if a caller asks a clinical question, like whether their injury needs imaging?
KwickPhone won't answer clinical questions or guess. It only speaks from the information you've given it about your services, scheduling, and fees. For anything clinical, it takes the question down and hands it to you or your staff to address, usually at the visit.
Does the deposit just disappear, or does it apply to what they owe?
It applies. You decide whether the deposit is a hold against the new-patient exam fee, a deposit toward a care-plan package, or full pre-payment, and KwickPhone explains that to the caller and records it in your system so the front desk knows exactly what's been paid.
What happens to a deposit if the patient needs to reschedule?
KwickPhone follows whatever policy you set, and it tells the caller that policy up front before taking the card. The deposit and its terms are recorded with the booking, so you and the patient have a clear, consistent record rather than a he-said-she-said over the phone.
We don't run a separate scheduling system. Can it still book and take deposits?
Yes. If you already use a POS or scheduling system, KwickPhone writes into it. If you don't, KwickPhone acts as your booking and payment system itself, holding your availability, taking deposits, and keeping the record, so you don't need to buy or learn another tool first.
Will patients realize they're not talking to a person, and will that cost me the booking?
It tells callers plainly that it's the office's AI assistant, and it's built to take the order, book the slot, and run the deposit rather than stall. For a patient in pain who wants to be seen, getting answered and booked in one call beats reaching voicemail, and when something is genuinely beyond it, it hands off to a person instead of faking an answer.

No POS yet? KwickPhone can be your POS too — a built-in register, orders & menu in one place. Already on a POS? Orders write straight back into it.
