The problem

Your front desk is doing three jobs at once.

Checking insurance, chasing claims, and answering phones — all while greeting the patients in the lobby. Something always slips.

20 min

to verify one patient by phone

Hold music, phone trees, and faxes — multiplied by every patient on tomorrow’s schedule.

1 in 3

calls to dental offices go unanswered

When the desk is busy, the phone rings out. New patients rarely leave a voicemail — they call the next office.

3%+

of insurance revenue lost to short payments

Denials and underpaid claims slip through when no one has time to check every payment.

Figures are typical industry estimates.

What Akalon does

One system for the whole front desk.

Use all of it, or start with the part that hurts most.

Insurance verification

Know what’s covered before the patient sits down.

Akalon checks every patient on your schedule before they arrive. If the insurance company has to be called, Akalon makes the call — not your team.

  • Active coverage and remaining annual max
  • Deductibles and coverage by category
  • Frequencies, waiting periods, and limitations

Claims & payments

Get paid what you’re owed.

Claims go out as soon as treatment is done. Akalon tracks every one, flags denials and short payments, and drafts the appeal for you.

  • Claims created from completed treatment
  • Underpayments caught against the patient’s benefits
  • Appeal letters drafted and ready to approve

AI receptionist

Every call answered. Every open chair filled.

Akalon answers when your team can’t — during the lunch rush, after hours, and on weekends — and books patients straight into your schedule.

  • Answers 24/7 in your office’s name
  • Books real openings in your schedule
  • Texts overdue patients to come back in

  2. 2

    We set everything up

    We connect your practice software, set up your phone line, and learn your office’s rules — hours, services, and when to hand off to your team.

FAQ

Common questions

What does Akalon actually do?

Akalon takes the repetitive work off your front desk. It verifies insurance before patients arrive, sends and tracks claims, flags denials and short payments, answers your phone 24/7, and texts overdue patients to rebook.

Will Akalon work with our practice software?

Yes. Akalon connects to your practice management software, so your schedule, patients, and completed treatment flow in automatically. Our team handles the connection during setup — there’s nothing for your office to install.

Will my team still be in control?

Yes. You choose what runs on its own and what waits for a person. Anything that matters — like sending an appeal or an unclear insurance result — lands on one short list for your team to approve. Every action is logged.

How long does setup take?

Most offices are live within days. We connect your practice software, set up the phone line, and learn your office’s hours, services, and rules for when to hand a call to your team.

Is Akalon HIPAA compliant?

Akalon is built for healthcare. We sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with every office before go-live, access is limited by role, and every action is recorded in an audit log.
