Questions Halaxy practices ask
Something else? Book a demo and ask us.
Do I need Halaxy’s API add-on to connect Terva?
Yes. API access is a paid Halaxy add-on, so check Halaxy’s pricing, and with it you create the API key our team connects with you.
Does Terva change my Halaxy online bookings or telehealth?
No. Your online bookings, reminders and telehealth by video or phone keep running as you set them up, and Terva’s bookings sit in your diary like any other.
What happens when a caller needs urgent help?
An urgent caller hears your practice’s urgent pathway and the 000 safety line, and you’re emailed straight away. Terva gives no clinical advice.
What does Terva cost with Halaxy?
Terva’s side is the Reception plan, which is A$200 a month with 100 minutes included, then 80c a minute, with no setup fee. Halaxy charges separately for its API add-on.
Where is our data kept?
Terva’s main application and database are hosted in Australia, and Terva doesn’t use patient information or call content to train its AI. Calls aren’t recorded; your dashboard keeps the transcript and summary. Our privacy policy has the details.
