The AI receptionist for hospitals & polyclinics
A hospital's phone line is a switchboard, a booking desk and an information counter at once. Naadham does all three: understands which department the caller needs, books OPD slots from that specialty's real schedule, and transfers the rest to the right human desk.
Multi-department scheduling is native, not bolted on: your schedule upload has one sheet per specialty (cardiology, orthopaedics, paediatrics…), each with its own doctors, timings and appointment intervals. The AI books into the right specialty's genuinely open slots and confirms doctor, department and time back to the patient.
The information load — visiting hours, directions, pharmacy timings, insurance desk — gets answered the same way every time, in the caller's language, freeing your operators for the calls that actually need them. Every conversation lands in the dashboard with a transcript and QA score your quality team can audit.

Frequently asked questions
Can one AI handle multiple departments?
Yes — your schedule upload has one sheet per specialty, each with its own doctors and slot lengths. The AI identifies the department from the conversation and books into that specialty's real calendar.
Can it transfer callers to different desks?
Yes — you configure transfer numbers, and conversations that need a human (or that patients ask to escalate) are handed over; the transcript stays in your dashboard.
How do patients in different languages experience it?
In their own language: Naadham supports English and Spanish — English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Bengali, Gujarati and Punjabi (Starter includes any 3, Growth and above all 10), with speech by Sarvam. Names are confirmed by spelling before booking; test the languages you need before go-live.
Is hospital data isolated and secure?
Each organization's data sits behind row-level security in Postgres; secrets are encrypted at rest; staff logins are read-only by default. The AI is hard-blocked from medical advice.
