Deposits at Booking: Why Med Spas Need Scheduling Webhooks

Taking a card over the phone without a system record tied to the appointment creates reconciliation chaos.

Medical Billing listens for scheduling webhooks at booking — records deposit, triggers connected payment collection per your rules.

The workflow

  1. Patient books appointment (online, phone, or voice AI)
  2. Scheduling fires deposit webhook
  3. Medical Billing records deposit against appointment ID
  4. Patient receives payment confirmation
  5. Balance due after treatment handled separately via pay link

Why voice AI should not own this

Payment onboarding and ledger belong in Medical Billing. Receptionist voice tools query estimates and trigger pay links — they do not process money.
