How Smart Triage Powers Autonomous Care
A true AI-triage system should dramatically reduce your workload, freeing staff to focus on care, not inboxes. Smart Triage runs independently with no human intervention.
Immediate, Intelligent Assessment
Our clinically validated model quickly assesses patient needs. Online, by phone, or in person, it delivers consistent, thorough evaluations, flags high-risk cases like sepsis or cancer, and avoids burdening staff.
Autonomous Clinical Triage & Prioritisation
Smart Triage determines urgency and safe care timeframes, diverting non-urgent cases from same-day slots. Practices using it see same-day demand drop from 62% to 19%, compared to the 44% national average.
Seamless Appointment Allocation & Booking
Smart Triage directs patients to the right appointments based on your setup. It supports practice and PCN-level capacity, offering an average of 61 options and automating 91% of bookings without staff intervention.

What our
customers say
Now you can meet and see more patients in a more timely fashion, in a safe way, without burning yourself out and having to see 6, 7, or 8 extra patients in your clinic from urgent requests coming in.
Before we started with Rapid Health, everyone had that sense of dread on a Monday morning. Since launching Smart Triage, there hasn’t been the backlog we would normally expect for a Monday morning. Patients that need to be seen are already booked in the system, so no intervention needs to be taken by either the clinicians or reception staff.
Even in our wildest dreams, we did not expect it to be quite as successful as it has been. It has solved all the demand problems, patient access is really good, and clinicians love it, as it gives them a really good balance of work.
Prior to implementing Rapid Health’s digital triage solution, patients faced significant wait times, especially at 8am when phone lines opened. Since going live with Rapid Health, we have seen a transformational improvement in both patient access and operational efficiency. The most striking change is a 75% reduction in call volumes at 8am on Mondays, easing pressure on both patients and our frontline staff.
With the introduction of our new appointment model and seamless integration with our PCN Minor Illness Hub, Rapid Health has enabled 84% of patients to secure appointments within a clinically appropriate timeframe. Autonomous triage and self-booking functions allow clinicians to focus on patient care rather than triaging, confident that appointments are timely and safe.
Rapid Health has done exactly what we needed it to do. My GPs/ANPs in Reception are back in their consultation rooms, seeing patients rather than fighting through the vast number of triage calls. Awesome piece of kit.
