    What Volty does with Spruce Health

    Spruce Health is a calls, texts and secure messaging platform for medical practices and care teams. Some families never use the Spruce app and write to you on WhatsApp, Gmail or your website instead. Volty answers the scheduling and front-desk part of those messages: visit times, office hours, directions, what to bring. It finds the person's contact in Spruce and posts an internal message that pages the right coordinator, so a time change or a request to call back is waiting when your team opens Spruce. Care questions stay with your clinicians, in Spruce.

    • Contact found by phone or email

      Volty searches Spruce contacts with the number or address the family wrote from.

    • Coordinator paged in Spruce

      A time change or callback request lands as an internal message to the named teammate.

    • Care questions go to a person

      If a family starts describing health details, Volty says it cannot discuss them and asks a coordinator to call back.

    • Posting is a switch

      The internal message tool starts Off; set it to Check with staff to review each one.

    How Volty connects to Spruce Health

    Spruce gives API and webhook access to organizations that request it through Spruce's developer form. With that access, Volty can search contacts and post internal messages, and Spruce signs each webhook it sends with an X-Spruce-Signature header.

    1. 01

      Request Spruce API access

      Your organization applies on Spruce's developer site and receives an API token.

    2. 02

      Keep it to contacts

      Contacts, care team names and internal messages. Patient conversations and records stay with your staff.

    3. 03

      Approve in Volty

      Our team adds the token to a custom connection, and your admin approves it once.

    4. 04

      Decide on posting

      Internal messages can run On, wait in Check with staff, or stay Off.

    The tools Volty gets

    Each one is a switch on the Sources page in Volty.

    • Search Spruce contactsReads
    • See a contact's care teamReads
    • Post an internal message that pages staffChanges

    Reading tools can be turned on straight away. Anything that changes Spruce Health starts Off, and once on it can be set to check with staff, so each change waits for a colleague.

    Common questions

    Does Volty replace Spruce for patient messaging?

    No. Your team keeps calling, texting and secure messaging in Spruce, and every care conversation stays there. Volty covers the channels Spruce does not, such as WhatsApp, Instagram and your web chat, for visit times and front-desk questions. Volty is for scheduling and front-desk questions, not for health records, and does not sign a BAA.

    Which Spruce access does the connection use?

    Spruce's API, which an organization requests through the form on Spruce's developer site. With the token Spruce issues, Volty searches contacts, sees the care team on a contact and posts internal messages that can page a teammate. Our team sets the token up as a custom connection and your admin approves it.

    Will Volty send messages to patients from our Spruce numbers?

    Not in the usual setup. The Spruce API can send from a practice's phone lines, but most practices keep patient-facing Spruce messages with their staff. Volty replies on its own channels and only writes internal messages in Spruce, and that tool starts Off until you turn it on.

    How much does it cost to connect Spruce Health with Volty?

    Every Volty plan includes seats, active contacts and AI credits and starts with a free 7-day trial, and the plan prices are on voltade.com/pricing. Meta bills message charges separately for WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger.
