That's pretty much all there is to it. Additionally, if there are any calls that don't meet the aforementioned requirements, sometimes the iPhone will let the call through if it's a number tied to a recent outgoing call or if its in Siri Suggestions.
If your iPhone is out of date, consider getting a new phone that features the upcoming iOS 17, which can listen to incoming calls for you, and you can decide whether or not they're urgent.
