AI Automation for High-Volume Ophthalmology Practices

Eye care moves quickly.
Keep the records with it.

Eye exams generate detailed findings and device reports. Caesar drafts the note and coordinates the next step, whether it is testing or a surgical visit at the ASC.

The eye exam is one stop.
The records need to follow.

Patients move between clinical settings while records and instructions need to follow. Caesar supports the handoffs around an eye care practice.

Ophthalmology questions

For your clinicians
and practice manager.

Can Caesar coordinate cataract visits across the office and ASC?

Yes. Appointment Coordination follows the clinician's surgical plan to arrange preoperative testing and the ASC date with postoperative visits. We confirm the scheduling connections and location rules during setup.

How does the Scribe use eye examination and device findings?

The draft includes documented visual acuity and IOP with slit lamp and fundus findings. Available OCT reports or visual field summaries can be referenced in the note. We confirm report availability and EMR support before rollout.

What happens when a patient calls with a postoperative vision concern?

The Phone Agent records the report using your postoperative question set and follows your escalation rules. The ophthalmologist reviews vision concerns and gives clinical instructions. The agent does not close out postoperative vision changes on its own.

Does billing account for ophthalmic surgery global periods?

The beta Coding and Billing Agent uses documented services to prepare the claim and track related encounters within the surgical global period. Applicable modifiers depend on the encounter and payer rules. Your billing workflow is confirmed during setup.

Can optical dispensary inquiries stay separate from medical visits?

The Phone Agent can route optical order-status and insurance inquiries through the dispensary workflow while clinical visits use their own booking rules. We confirm which order and coverage information is available before rollout. Eye symptoms and postoperative concerns still follow the clinical escalation process.
