Instead of searching the calendar, you ask your agent to `list_appointments`. You find an open slot and use `create_appointment` immediately. Then, you check their file using `get_patient` to ensure all contact details are current before confirming. ### It's end of day; I need to review the week's financials. You ask your agent for financial reports. It pulls up both a list of outstanding `list_billing_claims` and summaries of all transactions using `list_billing_transactions`, giving you a comprehensive overview without opening multiple spreadsheets. ### I just finished an examination, but I'm tired. You tell your agent what happened. It uses the notes to draft and save a clinical record with `create_clinical_note`, linking it instantly to the patient's file using `get_patient` data. ### We need to add a new doctor/office location. You ask your agent to check available staff and locations. It uses `list_doctors` and `list_offices` to give you the necessary roster information, verifying who is currently authorized to practice. ## Benefits - Never jump between tabs again. You can get a patient's full chart history and check their demographics using `get_patient` in one go. - Keep your finances clean by instantly listing all outstanding claims with `list_billing_claims`, letting you track revenue without manual report generation. - Quickly fill out documentation after an exam. You can use `create_clinical_note` to generate and save notes immediately, ensuring records are never late. - Booking is simple: Schedule a new visit using `create_appointment` or check the roster with `list_appointments`, all via conversational query. - Avoid data entry errors by using `update_patient`. You can correct contact information or demographics on existing profiles without manual form submissions. ## How It Works The bottom line is, you connect once, and your AI agent can manage complex medical workflows across multiple modules from a single chat window. 1.

The MCP runs the `list_patients` tool and returns a directory of every ID and basic name in your practice. **Can I schedule an appointment with DrChrono using `create_appointment`?** Yes. You tell the agent who, when, and for what reason. The MCP then executes `create_appointment`, handling all the backend logic to ensure the visit is booked correctly. **What if I need to fix a patient's address? Do I use `update_patient`?** That's right. You tell the agent exactly what needs changing for the patient ID you specify, and it runs `update_patient`. It handles all the required fields for data integrity. **Where do I check my billing claims in DrChrono?** To see outstanding payments, just ask your agent to list the bills. This triggers the `list_billing_claims` tool and shows you exactly what needs follow-up. **When should I use the `list_clinical_notes` tool?** The `list_clinical_notes` function retrieves records of past patient visits. You pass the necessary identifiers, like a patient ID and date range, to narrow down the medical documentation you need to review. **If I need to verify my account permissions, how do I use `get_users`?** The `get_users` tool retrieves details about the authenticated user linked to your MCP connection. This confirms what data scope and access level your agent has within DrChrono. **What is the best way to get all demographics for a single patient? Should I use `get_patient`?** You should use `get_patient` with the specific ID. This tool fetches a deep, comprehensive profile view of one individual, which is much more detailed than simply listing them in a general results set. **How do I check which doctors are active at my practice? Should I use `list_doctors`?** Using the `list_doctors` tool pulls a list of all practitioners associated with your account. This is essential for confirming staff names and IDs before scheduling an appointment. **Can I update a patient's contact information using the AI?** Yes. You can use the `update_patient` tool by providing the patient ID and the specific fields you wish to change, such as first name, last name, or gender. **How do I see all appointments scheduled for the practice?** Simply ask the agent to run the `list_appointments` tool. It will retrieve a list of all recorded appointments in your DrChrono account. **Is it possible to check the status of billing claims?** Yes, the `list_billing_claims` tool allows the agent to fetch and display the current billing claims associated with your account.
