Dot by Included Health

Meet your intelligent AI healthcare assistant

Dot offers personalized, proactive guidance and support — and 24/7 connections to human care teams when needed.

Healthcare AI with human-in-the-loop

Nearly one in three American adults turn to general-purpose AI chatbots with their health questions — tools with limited connection to their coverage, their care team, their health history, or live support for more complex needs. 

Dot closes that gap. It's your intelligent AI health assistant designed to turn "I don't know where to start" into clear, personalized next steps.

From answer to action, without the extra steps

Most chatbots stop at a checklist. Dot goes further — booking appointments, sending messages, and following up, so members aren't left alone to coordinate their care.

  • Matches members with high-quality, in-network providers based on personal preferences and availability

  • Helps schedule virtual and in-person visits, including primary care, therapy, psychiatry, and specialty care

  • Follows up automatically with personalized context, so care doesn’t fall through the cracks

Guidance tailored to your employees

Dot doesn't guess. It knows each member's plan, deductible, benefits, and care history — so recommendations reflect actual coverage, not generic advice that could apply to anyone.

  • Checks plan details, deductible status, and prior-authorization requirements in seconds

  • Delivers reliable, plan-specific cost estimates instead of broad, unhelpful ranges

  • Recommends the right level of care for the individual — not a one-size-fits-all response

Clinical guardrails with human experts on standby

Dot operates within built-in clinical safety guardrails, knowing when it can act and when to bring in a clinician or care team member — so members land in the right hands.

  • Escalates appropriately, routing complex or sensitive needs to the right clinician

  • Connects members to Care Advocates and Claims Advocates in minutes, with full context already loaded, so no one has to repeat themselves

  • Ongoing testing and oversight from Included Health clinicians ensures a 99% clinical safety benchmark

One front door, connected to every benefit

Dot connects members to their full benefits ecosystem, surfacing the right Included Health and third-party benefits exactly when they're needed — so valuable programs don't go unused.

  • Surfaces relevant benefits based on recent interactions or what members are already asking about

  • Eliminates dead ends by proactively recommending next steps, instead of just pointing members elsewhere

  • Keeps members in one connected conversation across chat, SMS, and voice for a fully integrated experience

Real members, real experiences

24/7 answers
“[Dot] does a great job of finding answers but also importantly doesn't try to block me if it doesn't know and gets me to the next level when it doesn't know.”

Have questions about our intelligent health assistant?
We have answers.

Dot is Included Health’s intelligent AI healthcare assistant. Dot is designed to provide members with quick, accurate answers to common questions about their specific benefits and care. However, if a member’s question is complex or they need to speak with a human, Dot will seamlessly connect them with a member of our care team.

Yes. Dot is built with the highest standards of data security and privacy. Personal health information is always protected and handled with the same care and confidentiality as it would be with our human care team.

Dot is a powerful tool, but it’s not a replacement for a human expert. If Dot is unable to answer a question or if a query requires a medical professional, Dot will transfer the member to our care team to provide the help they need.

Dot is designed to work within each organization’s benefit and service ecosystem and accounts for eligibility rules, available benefits, provider networks, and referral pathways so members are guided based on what is available to them.

Dot is continually monitored and refined over time within a clinically governed feedback loop. Ongoing monitoring, human review, and clinician-in-the-loop interventions help us identify knowledge gaps, refine prompts and workflows, and improve confidence calibrations.
