How the integration works in 3 steps

From activation to the first automated booking in just a few days

01

Connect BCS

We activate the connection with your BCS system. You don't need to change anything in your current setup: the integration works transparently.

02

AI handles the calls

The Virtual Reception answers calls, understands patient requests and checks availability on your BCS calendar in real time.

03

Appointment confirmed

The appointment is inserted directly into the BCS calendar. The patient gets instant confirmation, your staff doesn't need to do anything.

Why integrate BCS with an AI virtual receptionist

Concrete benefits for your healthcare facility

24/7 Availability

The AI assistant answers calls outside office hours, on weekends and holidays. Patients can book at any time, and BCS availability is always checked in real time.

Real-time synchronization

Every booking, modification or cancellation is instantly synced with the BCS calendar. No risk of double bookings or ghost appointments.

Zero manual intervention

From the patient's call to the appointment confirmation on BCS Medical: fully automatic. Reception staff are freed from repetitive tasks and can focus on in-person patient care.

Estimated cost reduction of up to 70%

By our estimates, an hour of calls handled by an operator costs €18-20 on average, while with AI the cost drops to about €6. It doesn't replace staff, but frees them for higher-value activities.

What clients say

Experiences from healthcare facilities using Virtual Reception

Polyclinics

The AI assistant gives us the ability to welcome our clients by phone 24/7, actively supporting our switchboard team during normal working hours.

Physiotherapy

We started our collaboration with Run2AI in September. From the very first months of setup, they proved to be serious, professional and very helpful. We've been operational since January and I must say that both the switchboard and the chatbot work great, offering patients the ability to make appointments 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. Truly congratulations!

Eye Care

The Virtual Reception is a real breakthrough for our front desk because, thanks to the callback function, every request is automatically tracked and no patient goes unanswered.

Physiotherapy

Overall, the feedback is undoubtedly positive. In these first weeks, the Virtual Reception has proved to be a valuable support in managing closing-hour periods.

Dermatology

The feedback is positive and, after the initial training, the Virtual Reception performs adequately.

Polyclinics

We are very satisfied with our new virtual colleague Monica, who is giving us invaluable help in managing phone calls, both with the information she provides and with callback requests, because she summarizes the subject of the callback request very well.

Polyclinics

The system is working. Operators daily check the bookings made during extended counter opening hours and have not found any issues so far. Thank you for your constant availability.

Polyclinics

We started working with Run2 a while ago and were pleased to find competent people who are quick to respond and to adapt to our various needs. Favorable opinion.

Diagnostics

We are enthusiastic about the potential of the “Virtual Reception” platform: in these first months of use we have seen a clear improvement in how patient contact is organized. Special thanks go to the Run2AI team for their constant availability, professionalism and the attention they have shown in meeting our customization needs.

Polyclinics

“Virtual Reception” is proving to be a tool with enormous potential for optimizing the flow of contact with our patients. The experience so far has been extremely positive, thanks in part to the excellent work of the Run2AI team: impeccable support, great availability and genuine attentiveness in adapting the platform to our needs.

Polyclinics

We introduced Run2AI's Virtual Reception at our polyclinic, Centro Salute Raimondi in Gorla Minore, run by ARGENTUM, with the aim of easing the workload of our front desk and improving how patient requests are handled. The results have been very positive. One of the problems we wanted to solve was missed calls at the busiest times: today, thanks to Virtual Reception, patients no longer find the lines busy and can easily get information about schedules, appointments and procedures. The change has been important for our staff too: many repetitive requests are handled automatically, leaving more time for situations that need attention and direct contact. We are very satisfied with our choice. Run2AI has allowed us to use artificial intelligence in a genuinely useful and practical way, improving a service that is essential for our patients.

Polyclinics

Their “virtual reception” is a very useful tool for shortening patient waiting times, improving perceived quality and reducing workloads. We have successfully adopted it at our Metica Medical Centers. Excellent support from Run2AI at every stage of the project, from adoption and setup through to the ongoing maintenance and review of the service.

Diagnostics

Before talking about the excellent product, I want to highlight how responsive the company is to its clients and their needs. The product is very versatile, configurable for different needs and well integrated with external management software. In just a few steps you get a precise virtual operator that gives users the right information and books appointments accurately in the external management software. The management dashboard also lets us win back even the more “hesitant” clients, by keeping track of conversations. If you struggle, for lack of time or staff, to manage your communication channels, whether phone, web or WhatsApp, this is the solution.

After an initial phase of setup and data entry, the program starts to show its full effectiveness. For Biomedica srl it is an essential tool, because it lets us manage and relieve the flow of incoming calls in an orderly way. Without this service we would have kept losing business because we couldn't handle all incoming phone requests. Excellent operational support.

Frequently asked questions about BCS integration

Run2AI's Virtual Reception reads the BCS calendar in real time, offers the patient the slots that are actually free and writes the appointment into the software; it reschedules or cancels existing ones the same way. BCS remains the master system: services, prices, price lists and practitioners reach the bot at the press of a "Sync" button.

If the patient asks for a doctor by name, the bot only searches that doctor's calendars; otherwise it combines the availability of every practitioner who provides that service.

Usually not. With a VoIP system, a dedicated extension is set up over a SIP trunk and the switchboard routes calls to the bot according to rules you decide; with an analog system, a dedicated number with call forwarding is used. The BCS connection only concerns calendars: your telephony stays your own.

With a closed proprietary switchboard there are three options: move to a VoIP provider, switch to a cloud PBX, or start with call forwarding as a trial.

Your facility decides through the switchboard rules: Run2AI only sees the calls it receives. Most facilities start with after-hours calls and the moments when every staff member is busy, such as 8 to 10 a.m. or Monday mornings; after the running-in period, many make the bot the first point of contact 24/7.

There's no practical cap on simultaneous calls on Run2AI's side: the limit is the number of lines on your switchboard, so 12 lines means 12 conversations at once. More on the inbound AI call management page.

During opening hours, the Virtual Reception transfers the call to a second "twin" extension, separate from the bot's own: if it went back to the original extension, the call would land with the bot again in an endless loop. If the patient asks for a person by name or a department, the bot routes the call to the right extension, respecting each one's hours.

When you're closed, it logs a callback request that your staff find in the dashboard with name, number and summary.

The appointment sits in the calendar like any other, and whatever workflows your facility has already set up in the software, such as SMS or email reminders, go out as usual. Your front desk doesn't need to confirm anything by hand.

The Run2AI dashboard keeps the full conversation transcript, along with outcomes by channel: bookings, callback requests and cancellations.

Yes: Run2AI signs on as data processor, data is stored on Google Cloud Platform in Europe with AI models running in Europe, and no model is trained on patient conversations. Data is encrypted at rest and readable only by people who log into the dashboard with their own credentials.

The bot always introduces itself as a virtual assistant and refers callers to your facility's privacy notice; your facility decides how long data is kept, with automatic deletion after the chosen period.

Usually in 2–3 weeks, 5–6 days in the fastest cases. The telephony workstream is coordinated with whoever manages your switchboard and includes testing; in parallel, the BCS calendars are integrated and content is prepared, starting from a base already proven in similar facilities.

Staff training is included and the practice software integration is a fixed-price item. For pricing and other details, see the FAQ page.
