What does ready mean?
Ready means a person owns the job, a clock is one you already hit, and someone can say the item is done. Ready also means a bad draft stays inside the building until a named person lets it out. If any of those is missing, you are shopping, not implementing.
Jennifer holds an AI Hero certificate and has spent 21 years on the desks the tools claim to replace. The certificate is not a reason to turn a model on. The years are the reason she asks who owns the callback before she asks which vendor you saw.
What has to be true for phones?
You know which hours you lose calls. One list holds the callbacks. One owner and one backup are on the schedule. A voicemail is a source into that list, not a second queue. An answering service or an AI agent still dumps into that list. If the list does not exist, the agent copies the miss faster. The comparison of a consultant, software, and an answering service is on its own page. Read missed calls and the phone script before a demo.
What has to be true for messages?
Types are split: refills, forms, records, clinical questions. Each type has an owner. Clinical questions leave the general pile the same day. A sorter can help after that. A sorter before that is a faster pile. No real patient text belongs in a test. Use fake messages.
What has to be true for reminders and no-shows?
Someone reads the replies the same day. A cancel becomes a rebook or a released slot before the end of the shift. More automated nags are not a strategy. A fee is a question for your counsel, not a setting in the software. The no-show page has the split to count first.
What must stay human?
Anything that decides how sick someone is. Anything posted in public that could confirm a person was seen. Anything that closes a task with no person accountable. Review replies stay human. The review article is the pattern. HHS explains the privacy rule. This guide is not legal advice and PXC does not wear a compliance badge.
What is a small trial?
One job. One approver. Fake examples. A stop date. A written note of what the tool may not do. If you cannot describe the stop, you are not ready to start. The AI Audit is the paid version of this chapter. It costs what the pricing page says, and it is never credited toward the Reset. The checklist is the free pass.
What order should you buy?
Desk first when the desk is the fire: Practice Audit, then the Reset if you sign three problems, then this question. You may buy the AI Audit alone. Expect the note to talk about owners anyway. Implementation is a separate quote with no hourly rate. If the note says not yet, there is no quote.
What should you refuse?
A pilot that needs a real chart to prove itself. A phone bot with no human close. A dashboard of national benchmarks in place of your Friday count. A contract that lets the vendor train on your patients' words. PXC will not send patient information to a model, and you should not either.

A vendor's agreement is yours to sign, with your own counsel. PXC does not sign it for you and does not tell you that a tool is compliant. Staff do not paste patient information into a chat tool. If a question is clinical, it stays with a clinician. This guide does not promise fewer calls, a shorter wait, or a saved dollar.
