Questions to ask before you buy

Is the Elation integration read-only or two-way (write-back)? Which fields sync?
Will the vendor sign a BAA, and does it cover the AI features?
Are there EHR-side fees for the interface or API access?
Does the AI tell patients it is an AI? How fast can a patient reach a human? How do patients opt out of texts or calls?
