<a name="agent-customization"></a>

After exploring the demo, you can tailor agent behavior to match your organization’s workflows. The customization page lets you configure scheduling capabilities, insurance verification, and identity verification steps.

The following table summarizes the customization areas available for each agent.


| Setting | Description | 
| --- | --- | 
|  Scheduling capabilities  |  Select which appointment actions (schedule, reschedule, cancel, lookup) are available to patients. For more information, see [Appointment management agent](appointment-management-agent.md).  | 
|  Insurance verification  |  Enable or disable real-time insurance eligibility verification through customer-owned Lambda functions. For more information, see [Insurance verification integration](insurance-verification.md).  | 
|  AI autonomy  |  Configure whether the appointment is fully self-serviced or preferences are collected and shared with staff for final action. For more information, see [Appointment management agent](appointment-management-agent.md).  | 
|  Verification attributes  |  Select which factors (for example, medical record number (MRN), date of birth, zip code) are required for authentication. For more information, see [Patient verification agent](patient-verification-agent.md).  |
