# gBell > gBell runs the operational workflows in and around clinics and hospitals. Voice is the front door: the agent answers every call, books and reschedules visits, and sends the intake link mid-call. Behind that sits the workflow layer that actually carries the weight, insurance verification and revenue cycle management. gBell is a software product, not an agency or a consulting service. ## What it does - **Voice front desk.** Answers every inbound call, including after hours. Books, reschedules, and cancels against real provider availability rather than taking a message. - **Intake.** Sends the patient a tokenized intake link while they are still on the phone, so they arrive with paperwork already done. - **Insurance verification.** Real-time eligibility checks against the clearinghouse. - **Revenue cycle.** The billing and follow-up layer behind the visit. - **Staff console.** Live call monitoring, transcripts, appointment management, escalation queue, and campaign outreach. ## Who it is for Small and mid-size clinics and practices where the front desk is understaffed and every missed call is a patient who books somewhere else, or a no-show nobody confirmed. ## Handling of patient data gBell processes protected health information on behalf of the practices it serves and operates as a business associate under HIPAA. Patient-identifying detail lives behind one-time-passcode verification at /manage rather than in email or SMS bodies. ## Pages - [Home](https://gbellai.com/): what the product does, how a call flows, and the console. - [Book](https://gbellai.com/book): the embeddable self-scheduling widget practices place on their own sites. - [For patients](https://gbellai.com/patients): who we are and why we have a patient's details, written for the person who got the call. - [Careers](https://gbellai.com/careers): open roles. - [Blog](https://gbellai.com/blog): working notes on clinic phones, insurance eligibility, and front-desk operations, with sourced prices. ## Clinic phones and answering services - [The best AI receptionists for medical offices in 2026](https://gbellai.com/blog/best-ai-receptionist-medical-offices-2026): AI receptionists, human answering services, and hybrids compared on real per-minute prices and what each misses. - [AI answering service vs human answering service for clinics](https://gbellai.com/blog/ai-answering-service-vs-human-for-clinics): message-takers vs front desks, where a $2-per-minute human service earns its price, and what to ask before switching. - [What a medical answering service costs in 2026](https://gbellai.com/blog/medical-answering-service-cost-2026): per-minute rates, monthly minimums, setup fees, and the overage math nobody quotes up front. - [After-hours phone coverage for medical practices, explained](https://gbellai.com/blog/after-hours-answering-service-for-doctors): what happens when a patient calls at 9pm, comparing voicemail, answering services, and AI front desks on cost, booking ability, and escalation. ## Insurance eligibility and revenue cycle - [Insurance eligibility software for small practices: real 2026 pricing](https://gbellai.com/blog/insurance-eligibility-software-small-practice-pricing): Stedi, Claim.MD, Office Ally, and Availity compared on actual per-check prices, and when each wins. - [Eligibility checks vs prior authorization: what clinics mix up](https://gbellai.com/blog/eligibility-check-vs-prior-authorization): one is a cents-level question answered in seconds, the other is days of payer review.
