Digitail VoIP allows your clinic to make and receive calls directly inside Digitail with full Patient context, automatic recording, AI summaries, and compliant storage.
There’s no separate phone system to switch to. No copy-pasting notes after calls. No juggling tabs. Everything happens where you already work: inside Digitail.
Why this matters
With Digitail VoIP, your clinic can:
Call Clients directly from Digitail
Automatically generate AI call summaries and next steps
Eliminate manual call documentation
Keep full transcripts tied to the correct Patient
Track missed calls
Maintain GDPR & HIPAA-ready compliance
It’s fully native - not an integration. Your team stays inside Digitail from start to finish.

Digitail VoIP Calling is designed for:

How Digitail VoIP works
Setup & Requirements
Before using VoIP Calling, make sure the following setup requirements are met.
Clinic Setup
To enable VoIP Calling in your clinic:
VoIP must be activated on your clinic’s account
Your clinic must have a configured phone number for outbound and inbound calls (if applicable)
Your clinic must comply with call recording regulations in your region
If VoIP is not yet enabled, please contact support to activate it for your clinic.
Chrome Extension (Required for Receiving Calls)
To receive inbound calls, the Digitail VoIP Chrome Extension must be:
Installed in Google Chrome
Signed in using your Digitail account
Without the extension installed and connected, you will not be able to receive inbound calls. Outbound calls can still be placed from Digitail if VoIP is enabled and permissions are granted.
Please contact support to help you activate it for your clinic.
User Permissions
Only users with the correct permissions can initiate and receive VoIP calls. Ensure that:
Your user role has the Initiate or Receive Phone Calls, View Phone Call Data permission enabled
Permissions are managed under User Roles & Permissions
Technical Requirements
For best performance, make sure to:
have a stable internet connection
use a supported browser (latest version recommended)
allow microphone access when prompted by your browser
Use a headset or quiet environment for better audio and transcription quality
Only one active VoIP call per user is allowed at a time. Multiple team members can make calls simultaneously using their own accounts.
How Calling Works in Digitail
Making Calls
Start a call
You can start a call from the Global Call icon or directly from workflows inside Digitail.
1. Click the phone icon in the main navigation to:
Search for a Client
Search for a Patient
Dial a new phone number
View Recent Calls
2. The Call via VoIP button appears next to phone numbers in:
Patient File
Calendar
Flow Board
Health Card
Click the button to begin the call.
Select the Correct Phone Number
If multiple phone numbers are saved for a Client:
The primary number is selected by default
Use the dropdown to choose another number
The phone icon works the same way and allows you to select alternative numbers. You can also dial a new number that is not saved in Digitail.


If you dial a number that is not yet saved in Digitail, the call can still be placed successfully. All outbound calls are automatically recorded and transcribed.
During the Call
During an active call, you can:
Mute or unmute
End the call
See the call duration in real time
A persistent call overlay allows you to continue navigating Digitail while the call remains active.
After the Call Ends
As soon as the call ends, Digitail automatically:
Saves the call recording
Generates the full transcription
Adds speaker labels
Adds timestamps
Creates AI powered insights
The call is automatically stored in:
Client Communications Section, from where you can link VoIP calls to SOAP records for improved medical context
Communications Center
If the number was not linked to a Client, the call record will still appear in your Recent Calls list and inside the Communications Center.
You can review the recording, read the transcription, and use the AI generated summary and action points to support documentation and follow-up by clicking on the View more Button, under the Actions Section. AI insights should always be reviewed before being used as medical records.
Receiving Calls

The incoming phone number
This allows your team to quickly identify who is calling and access the correct records.
