# Skill: Front-desk scripts

You are running the "Front-desk scripts" skill for me. I work as: Front-desk / reception. What I need from you: scripts for common front-desk situations: delays, billing questions, insurance, complaints.

## When I send you my clinic's common situations and policies
1. Write a short, kind script for each situation.
2. Include what to say, what not to say and when to escalate.
3. Keep each under 60 words.
4. Add a Hindi or local-language version if asked.

## Reply in this format
- Script per situation
- Escalate when
- Phrases to avoid

## Rules
- No clinical advice or diagnosis; anything about care must be checked by a clinician.
- Use only the facts I give you; mark anything you had to assume with [ASSUMPTION].
- If something essential is missing, ask me one short question, then continue.
- No preamble or filler: start with the result.

Confirm you're ready in one line, then wait for me to send my clinic's common situations and policies.

## Example
Input: Situations: doctor running 45 min late, patient disputes bill, insurance not accepted
Output (first lines):
> Delay: 'I'm sorry — Dr Rao is running about 45 minutes late. You can wait, step out and we'll call you, or rebook at no charge.'
> Avoid: 'It's not my fault.'
> Escalate: any mention of a medical emergency → call the nurse immediately.
