Keragon helps you grow your practice.

"Keragon has been an essential partner as we've grown our practice. The personalized support helped us get systems up and running quickly."

Joey Young

President, Renew Hope and Healing

Keragon is a HIPAA-compliant alternative to Zapier.

“We used Zapier for many of our integrations, but when it came to working with protected health information we had to find a different solution. Keragon has filled that gap really well! Their team has been great to work with and super helpful in getting our integrations up and running!”

Mark Callahan

Head of Engineering, BreatheSuite

I'm not a developer. Keragon set me free!

“Thank you for your response. I started using the demo today; it worked so smoothly... I almost shed a tear. HIPAA Automations.... lovely!!!”

Christian Trujillo

Owner, Diabetes DME

Keragon improves your operational efficiency.

“We’re thrilled to share how Keragon is integral to the success of A Smile for Kids and the safety of our patients’ data. This is especially evident as different, internal ASK systems exchange HIPAA protected information. By using Keragon as a trusted integration platform, we have enhanced our operational efficiency and safeguarded patient data at the highest level!”

Christian Moller-Andersen

Executive Director, A Smile for Kids

Keragon will support you all the way.

“And THANK YOU so much for looking into our zip code issue! It worked! That was a simple fix and now we’re having no problems automating customer creation. I can’t thank you enough for the time and support - we’re absolutely thrilled with how our systems are operating with Keragon. It has truly been a game changer!”

Will McGabe

Director of Social Impact, Hungry Harvest

Keragon is like Zapier for your health care business - only WAY better

“Keragon's support is next level. They take the time to build the connectors and really think through everything with us in a considerate, professional way. We chose our 2.0 tech stack based on software that play nice with Keragon, and that was a really good idea. I feel excited because we now can constantly incrementally improve our operations, and Keragon is the behind the scenes driver of that growth!”

Kevin Bundy

CEO, Alive IV and Wellness

Very easy to use and powerful!

“Keragon is great, but the support is even better. Support is incredibly fast, and you can jump on screen shares for help when needed - this is unheard of. I would highly recommend Keragon for any healthcare organization, big or small, that is looking to connect their systems and automate their workflows using a very intuitive yet super powerful solution. ”

Lesley Van De Mortel

CEO, Lez Van De Mortel Ltd

HIPAA Compliant Zapier & More!

“I like how easy it is to build complex EMR integrations with Aesthetix CRM. Using the Keragon connectors, we have now integrated multiple EMRs, including ModMed. We are excited about the future of building HIPAA-compliant integrations for our customers with Keragon.”

Eric Dunn

CEO, Aesthetix CRM

Huge time saver

“We use a few different systems which leads to a lot of repeating the same steps in each platform. Keragon automated a lot of this for us. Now we can enter information in one place and it will update/add in every platform. The Keragon setup is not easy, but the support is great. I'd highly recommend to practices who use different platforms for patient care.”

Andrew Housholder

MD/Owner, The Morning Sickness Clinic

Fast Scaling Startup Nails Healthcare Automations

“Keragon successfully recreates a similar UI/UX and workflow to other top automation platforms like Zapier and IFTTT. The key difference is that it's one of the few that is HIPAA compliant across a wide range of tools. The team there has done a great job prioritizing the right features. As an automations consultant, I'm able to create the majority of the workflows I need, and find reasonable workarounds (such as using webhooks) to create the rest of them.”

Safety & compliance

Built to run the paperwork, never to make clinical calls

Keragon Agents run the paperwork: send, chase, verify, file. Anything clinical, ambiguous or urgent routes to your team. They never interpret answers on a form, score a screener, or decide what a response means.

Standard, on every plan

HIPAA handling and a BAA included

HIPAA-compliant data handling, BAA on every paid plan
SOC 2 Type II audited
Encryption in transit and at rest
Audit log on every agent action
Intake-specific

Intake data is handled like the PHI it is

A BAA on every link in the chain. Your forms tool, the automation layer, your EHR: Keragon connects HIPAA-capable tools under a BAA and is covered by one itself. No PHI through tools that will not sign.
Answers become fields, not attachments. Responses write to the chart as structured data your team can act on, with an audit log of every send, reminder and write.
Screeners are delivered, never scored. A PHQ-9 or health history goes to your clinicians for review. Agents move the paperwork; your team reads it.
Who it's for

Built for every intake flow, from solo practices to groups

Solo practice or multiple locations, the flow is the same: forms out, answers chased, coverage checked, chart updated. Keragon runs it on the EHR you already use.

How it works

Patient intake on autopilot, from booked to ready

Describe the job and Keragon runs it end to end, connected to your EHR, forms, e-signature and messaging, HIPAA-compliant, even after hours.

Step 1 · Describe the job in plain English
Tell Keragon what you want, the way you would tell a teammate.
"When a new patient books, send the intake packet, remind them every two days, and tell the front desk if it is not done 24 hours before the visit."
Step 2 · Connect your systems
Connect your EHR, forms, e-signature, eligibility and messaging.
Keragon works across the tools you already run, so forms, coverage and records stay in sync without re-typing.
Step 3 · Set the guardrails
Approved templates, clinical routing, quiet hours.
You set what Agents may send, what routes to a person, and when reminders are allowed to go out.
Step 4 · Test with sample data, then go live
Go live when the test run looks right.
Try it on sample data first. Every action is logged for HIPAA audit, and you can adjust anytime in plain English.
Integrations

Connect your EHR, and everything around it.

300+ HIPAA-compliant integrations across 30+ EHRs, scheduling, billing, and communications. If there’s an API in healthcare, we can connect it.

WHAT CHANGES

Patient intake, before and after Keragon

The same week, run two ways.

Before Keragon
A clipboard in the waiting room, and forms chased on the day of the visit
The front desk re-types every form into the EHR, and errors ride along
Eligibility is checked at check-in, so coverage surprises land at the desk
Scanned PDFs pile up in the chart, and the data inside is trapped
After Keragon
The packet goes out at booking and comes back done before arrival
Responses land in the right chart as structured fields
Coverage is verified days early, and exceptions reach your team in time to fix
Your team reviews exceptions, not paperwork
When practices stop running intake by hand:
Front-desk turnover
More new patients than the front desk can absorb
An EHR migration

See your own before and after. Put your appointment volume into the calculator, and see what finished-before-arrival intake gives back.

FAQ

Mental health automation questions, answered

What is patient intake automation?

Patient intake automation is software that runs the paperwork between booked and ready: it sends the right forms when the appointment is booked, follows up until they are complete, verifies insurance, collects consents and payment details, and writes everything to the patient's chart. Keragon does this across the systems you already use, with 300+ HIPAA-compliant integrations and AI teammates that handle the follow-up.

Does Keragon replace my intake forms tool or EHR?

No. Keragon is the automation layer that runs across them. Your forms stay in the tool you already use, and your EHR stays the source of truth. Keragon sends the packet, chases what is incomplete, verifies coverage, and writes the answers into the chart as structured fields. Tools like IntakeQ, Jotform and NexHealth are integrations we work with, not products we replace.

Does it write into my EHR?

Keragon connects 300+ healthcare tools, including Healthie, Athenahealth, AdvancedMD, Elation, DrChrono, Tebra and NexHealth, plus your forms, e-signature, eligibility and payments. Where a system supports it, responses write into the chart as structured fields; where it does not, the data is routed to your team and records stay in sync. The current list is at keragon.com/all-integrations.

What happens when a patient doesn't finish the packet?

The agent follows up on the cadence you set, by text or email, until the packet is done or a person needs to step in. Your front desk gets an escalation with exactly what is missing, before the visit instead of during it.

Can it verify insurance before the visit?

Yes. Keragon runs supported eligibility checks through tools like pVerify, Availity and Stedi days before the visit and routes the status to your team. An eligibility response is not a guarantee of payment, so benefits questions follow your review policy.

Can it send screeners like the PHQ-9 before a first visit?

Yes. Screeners and health histories ride along with the intake packet and file to the chart when they come back. The agent delivers and files them; scoring and clinical interpretation stay with your clinicians.

We already use Zapier. Why switch?

Zapier is a general-purpose tool and doesn't offer a BAA, so patient data in it is a compliance risk. An intake flow is only HIPAA-compliant when every link in the chain is covered, including the automation layer. Keragon does what Zapier does, built for healthcare: HIPAA-compliant, BAA included, with healthcare-native integrations and AI teammates on top.

Is Keragon HIPAA-compliant, and do we get a BAA?

Yes. Keragon is HIPAA-compliant and SOC 2 Type II audited, data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and a BAA is included on every paid plan. Every agent action is written to an audit log your team can review.

Patients send us health histories and screeners. Does AI read them?

No. Agents move the paperwork: they send forms, chase what is missing, and file responses to the right chart. Screeners like a PHQ-9 are delivered and filed, never scored or interpreted by AI. Your clinicians review the answers.

Where does patient data go, and who can see it?

Data moves between the systems you connect and nowhere else. You choose which tools an agent can reach and what it can do in each one, and access is scoped per connection. Details are at keragon.com/security.
