What this page covers
DrChrono carries scheduling, charting, and billing for small and specialty ambulatory practices, so its administrative load runs across the front desk and the biller. Flexbone deploys voice and browser agents that operate inside DrChrono so scheduling, eligibility, and authorization read and write the same records your staff already use.
DrChrono and the practices it serves
DrChrono is a cloud and tablet-based EHR, practice management, and medical billing platform used across small and specialty ambulatory practices. Because it carries the front-to-back stack, the same system holds the scheduler the front desk works, the eligibility and claim data billers work, and the authorization records that gate visits and procedures. Flexbone operates inside DrChrono rather than alongside it, so a booked visit, a verified benefit, or a tracked authorization lands where your team already looks.

In 30 minutes we map your current volume, the payers and systems involved, where staff time goes, and the highest-ROI calls and follow-ups Flexbone can take off your team first, scoped to the work you actually run.
Front and back office workflows Flexbone runs
On the front office, Flexbone answers inbound calls, books and confirms appointments in DrChrono, runs reminders and recall, and fills cancellations. On the back office, it verifies eligibility, submits and tracks prior authorization, runs claim status checks, and works denials by reading the 835 remittance and its CARC and RARC codes. The reusable workflow detail lives on the claim status, A/R follow-up, and eligibility verification pages.
Can AI verify insurance eligibility inside DrChrono?
Yes. Flexbone runs a 270/271 eligibility exchange for the patients on the DrChrono schedule, reads the payer response for coverage, plan, and benefit detail, and writes the verified result into the DrChrono record your front office and billers already use. Where a payer does not return complete benefit data over 270/271, the browser agent checks the payer portal and a voice agent places the call, so coverage is confirmed before the visit rather than surfacing as a denial after it.
How does AI handle prior authorization in DrChrono?
Flexbone submits and tracks the 278 prior authorization from inside DrChrono. The browser agent identifies visits and procedures that need authorization, pulls the clinical detail and CPT codes from the chart, submits to the payer or its portal, and follows the status to approval or denial. The authorization number and result are written back into DrChrono, and a voice agent places the payer status calls the workflow depends on, so billers are not sitting on hold.
Can AI answer patient calls for a DrChrono practice?
Yes. Flexbone voice agents answer inbound patient calls, book and confirm appointments against DrChrono availability, run reminders and recall, and fill cancellations, then hand a call to staff when it falls outside the defined scope. The same voice agents place the outbound eligibility and prior authorization follow-up calls, so the phone work and the record in DrChrono stay in sync.

How Flexbone deploys inside DrChrono
Flexbone is forward-deployed: we build the agents around your DrChrono configuration and payer mix, validate them against your real call and authorization patterns, and keep refining them. Results write back to DrChrono, and anything outside the agent scope is handed to staff with context. We scope the rollout to the workflows that free the most staff time first, and we operate under HIPAA with a business associate agreement.
