Medicare Care Automation

A better way to care for your Medicare panel

AWV outreach and HRA collection. Vaccine and screening gap closure. Chronic care check-ins. Follow-up tracking. All delivered via SMS, without adding staff.

Your Medicare patients need more touchpoints than any visit schedule can deliver. This is a system that handles the between-visit work: reaching out, collecting information, and getting structured summaries back to you before the next appointment. If a caregiver responds on a patient's behalf, the conversation adapts naturally.

HRA collected before the visit, not during it

The 54-item Medicare Health Risk Assessment takes 15 to 20 minutes of staff time when done in the office. This system delivers it as a structured assessment via SMS, item by item, before the patient walks in. Depression screening, SDOH, cognitive function, and substance use screening work the same way. By the time the patient arrives, the assessments are done and structured summaries are waiting in your workflow.

  • Full 54-item HRA collected via SMS before the appointment
  • Depression, SDOH, cognitive, and substance use screenings collected the same way
  • Patient arrives with assessments complete, you bill $175 to $280
  • Structured summaries are waiting in your workflow before the visit starts

The Math

The AWV math for your panel

Most Medicare practices complete AWVs on less than half their eligible panel. The gap is not awareness, it is outreach capacity. This calculator shows what happens when that outreach runs automatically.

  • Each completed AWV reimburses $175 to $280 depending on initial vs. subsequent
  • Automated scheduling and HRA collection removes the staff bottleneck
  • Patients who complete the HRA before the visit are more likely to show
  • This calculator is conservative. It does not count revenue from additional screenings or follow-up visits

Common Questions

Built for how your practice actually works

"Does it work with my EHR?"

FRQ Tech comes integrated out of the box with major EHRs. Supported EHRs include Athenahealth, DrChrono, eClinicalWorks (v11.52+), Elation, eMedicalPractice, MDland iClinic, NextGen Enterprise, Office Ally EHR 24/7, Practice Fusion, and TouchWorks. No IT project needed. Most practices set it up on their own, but our team is always happy to jump on a call and walk you through it until you're comfortable.

"Will patients know it's AI? Will they respond?"

Yes, and that's by design. Patients are told upfront they're speaking with a conversational AI, validated for healthcare, that their provider asked to check in and collect information that helps provide better care. The conversation feels natural, and practices have seen strong engagement and meaningful clinical insights about patients' lives between visits.

"My staff is already maxed. How much setup?"

Minimal. The care tasks are pre-built. You tell us which patients need follow-up, and the AI runs. No workflow redesign, no training, no new software to learn.

"Is this HIPAA compliant?"

Yes. FRQ Tech is HIPAA-compliant from the ground up. All data encrypted in transit and at rest. We sign BAAs with every practice. PHI is never used for training.

"What does it cost?"

Plans start at $40 per provider per month and scale based on automation volume. No per-message fees and not based on patient count.

"What about patients who don't text?"

97% of US adults text, so the vast majority of your panel is reachable. For patients who don't, this isn't the right channel to meet their needs, and that's okay. FRQ Tech is designed to close the loop for the patients it can reach, so your staff can focus their time on the ones who need a different approach.
