Bariatric surgery programs lose patients throughout lengthy preoperative requirements. Insurance mandates 3-6 months of supervised weight management before approval, patients must complete nutritional counseling, psychological evaluations, and medical clearances, and postoperative follow-up requires lifelong monitoring. The result: 40% of patients abandon the process before surgery, nutritional deficiencies go undetected, and weight regain occurs without intervention.
Insurance-mandated 3-6 month supervised weight management programs have 40% abandonment rates due to engagement failures
Multidisciplinary clearance coordination across nutrition, psychology, cardiology, and pulmonology delays surgical scheduling by months
Postoperative diet progression through liquid, pureed, soft, and regular phases generates overwhelming call volumes
Nutritional deficiency monitoring (B12, iron, calcium, vitamin D) requires lifelong lab tracking that patients neglect after the first year
Weight regain signals emerge gradually between annual visits, and practices lack real-time monitoring to intervene early
Support group attendance and behavioral health follow-up — critical for long-term success — drops precipitously after surgery
Every workflow purpose-built for bariatric & metabolic surgery operations.
Referral intake with OCR extraction of BMI histories, comorbidity documentation, and prior weight management records — patient matching and insurance preauthorization pathway verification in under 3 minutes

Specialized AI employees that handle these workflows autonomously.
Extracts BMI histories, comorbidity documentation, and prior weight management records from referrals using OCR. Maps insurance-mandated preoperative requirements and creates personalized milestone checklists for surgical qualification.
Tracks insurance milestone completion across supervised visits, clearances, and evaluations to trigger surgical scheduling at the earliest eligible date. Fills cancellations prioritizing patients with completed preoperative pathways.
Delivers preoperative milestone reminders, postoperative diet progression guidance, and supplement compliance prompts across SMS, voice, and portal. Facilitates support group participation and celebrates program milestones to sustain engagement.
Triages diet progression questions, supplement dosing inquiries, and surgical complication concerns with AI severity assessment. Monitors nutritional labs and weight trends, escalating rapid regain or deficiency signals before they become clinical problems.
