SLAtech AI Medical FAQ
14 answers a clinic admin actually asks
PHI redaction, specialty coverage, WhatsApp Business, BAA-eligibility, language support, side-by-side with Intercom Fin / Tidio Lyro / Chatbase. Linked across to the umbrella platform FAQ, the public answer-quality page, and the comparison matrix.
Does SLAtech AI Medical handle clinical questions safely?
SLAtech AI Medical answers patient-facing logistics questions (booking, prep instructions, price ranges) using RAG grounded in the clinic's uploaded content. When a visitor asks something clinical that scores below the confidence threshold, the assistant routes to "let me book you a 10-minute callback with a clinician" rather than guessing. Answers built on retrieved content carry a confidence + factuality + hallucination flag visible in the admin Inbox for audit.
Is patient data exposed to third-party AI vendors?
Detected identifiers - email, phone, payment card, Israeli national-ID and medical-record numbers - are replaced before any data leaves our servers for an AI sub-processor, and the originals stay encrypted with us. Masking is opt-in per document upload and always on for visitor messages; names in free text are not auto-detected, and content published on your own website is indexed as-is. All transfers are governed by SCC 2021/914 - see /en/sub-processors/ for the full vendor list.
Which medical specialties are pre-seeded?
General Practice, Dentistry, Dermatology, Orthopedics, Cardiology, Gynecology, Pediatrics, Aesthetic Medicine, plus a generic "Other" template. Each specialty arrives with industry-tuned FAQ templates, tone-of-voice presets and pre-visit instruction triggers (patch-test reminders, fasting requirements, whitening prep).
Can SLAtech AI Medical integrate with an existing clinic calendar?
Yes - Google Calendar and Outlook two-way sync are in the Pro tier and above. Per-practitioner availability rules, slot durations and buffer times are configurable. Reminders, cancellations and reschedules are handled via the same calendar integration. PMS integrations (Doctolib, MEDIVA, ChiroTouch) are in the Enterprise-tier roadmap.
Is WhatsApp Business included?
Yes in the Pro tier ($249/month) and above. Most competing platforms (Tidio, Crisp, Intercom) treat WhatsApp as a separate add-on; SLAtech AI Medical bundles WhatsApp + Telegram + web widget in Pro. The five clinic tiers are Free ($0), Starter ($49), Pro ($249), Enterprise ($499) and Custom Solutions (contact sales).
How long does setup take?
About 10 minutes for the web widget on a single clinic site. Calendar integration adds another 10-15 minutes. A dedicated success-manager onboarding cycle is not required - SLAtech AI Medical is self-serve from signup.
What languages does SLAtech AI Medical speak?
Hebrew (RTL polished), Russian and English by default. The multi-language detection layer auto-routes per visitor message, and the admin UI itself renders in Hebrew RTL without the layout bugs visible in Drift / Intercom / Tidio Hebrew admin views. Additional languages are available on request.
Can SLAtech AI Medical be deployed under a BAA / HIPAA-compatible configuration?
Enterprise tier offers a single-tenant deployment option with BAA-eligible configuration for US clinics. Other clinics rely on the default GDPR posture (SCC 2021/914 sub-processor coverage); hosting in your own jurisdiction is available on request (Enterprise). SOC 2 Type I targeted for Q3 2026.
What's the difference between SLAtech AI Medical and a generic chatbot like Intercom Fin or Tidio Lyro?
Generic platforms ship one English-first AI and ask the clinic to upload PDFs and tune prompts. SLAtech AI Medical ships nine specialty-tuned FAQ packs, a PHI / PII redactor, Hebrew / Russian first-class support, and flat-rate pricing without per-resolution overages.

How does SLAtech AI Medical compare with other assistants?
Not by a score we can show you. This answer used to carry a figure out of 100 for us and for named competitors; no question set or runner existed to produce them, so they were removed rather than restated. What is concrete: PHI redaction at ingest covers Israeli ID numbers, international phone formats and medical record numbers, which the generic platforms do not ship at all. How quality is measured: https://www.slatech.ai/en/eval/.
How does the per-message confidence flag work?
Answers built on retrieved content are scored by a second model call for factuality, and flagged when they state something the retrieved material does not support. The confidence score appears next to the response in the admin Inbox; scores below the threshold, configurable per clinic, route the visitor to a human-handoff prompt. Answers that fall back to "I don't know" are not scored - there is nothing grounded to check them against.
What integrations does SLAtech AI Medical support?
Lead capture to HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive (Pro tier and above), plus a generic JSON-POST webhook for in-house CRMs and practice-management systems. Calendar booking integrates with Google Calendar and Outlook out of the box. Reminders trigger via SendGrid (Pro tier) with template per-specialty.
Does SLAtech AI Medical support FHIR integration?
Yes. SLAtech AI Medical queries FHIR R4 Patient, Appointment, Practitioner, and Encounter resources from compliant EMRs to quote live appointment availability and pre-fill known patient data. Identity-verification step ALWAYS runs before any PHI is surfaced. Generic chatbots have no schema awareness - they can't quote live EMR slot availability. Glossary definitions: /en/glossary/ #FHIR-Patient-resource and #FHIR-Appointment-resource.
Will SLAtech sign a BAA for PHI processing?
Yes. SLAtech AI Medical ships a BAA-eligible single-tenant option; BAA is executed before any PHI ingest. Without BAA, the clinic carries direct HIPAA liability for any PHI processed by SLAtech. Generic chatbots that say "contact sales for BAA" instead of sharing the document - that's a red flag. Glossary: /en/glossary/ #BAA.
