For physiotherapists
Your physiotherapy notes, done by the time the patient leaves.
Anyhealth turns each consult into the record it should produce, structured the way your practice structures it, and writes the note you sign back into your practice management software.
An initial assessment and a five-minute progression are different documents. Your note format follows the appointment type, so a review in a packed list does not arrive shaped like a first visit.
The consults you actually run
Your note format follows the appointment type, so each of these produces the document it should rather than one shape stretched over all of them.
- Initial assessment and treatment plan
- History, objective findings, the plan and the baseline everything afterwards is measured against. The longest note of the episode, and the one most often written up after the list has finished.
- Review and progression
- Short appointments where the record is a running comparison. What changed, what was loaded, what the patient reported. Written properly, these are what an insurer report is later assembled from.
- Post-operative rehabilitation
- A protocol, a timeline and correspondence back to the referring surgeon. The note has to carry the stage as well as the session, because the person reading it next may not be you.
- Workers compensation review
- The consult and its documentation are one job here. Findings, treatment, response and current capacity implications, in the wording the case manager expects to see.
How a consult becomes a note
Step one
Record the consult, or dictate it afterwards
On your phone, in the room or in the car between visits. Anyhealth already knows who the appointment is for and what kind of appointment it is, because it reads the diary in your practice management software.
Step two
Read the draft in your own format
The note is drafted section by section in the format that appointment type already uses in your practice. Edit anything that is not how you would have put it.
Step three
Sign it, and it is filed
Signing writes the note back into your practice management software, against the right patient and the right appointment. Nothing reaches it unsigned.
Insurers, referrers and requests for further treatment
Physiotherapy carries the heaviest insurer correspondence load in allied health. Workers compensation and motor accident schemes both want progress in writing, on their timetable, and both refuse it when the underlying notes will not support it.
- Workers compensation progress reporting
- Anyhealth drafts an insurer letter from the notes you have already signed for that patient, in a neutral factual register: injury as documented, findings, treatment provided and response, and the proposed plan. You edit it before it goes anywhere.
- Correspondence back to the referrer
- A reply to a referring surgeon or GP, drafted from the same signed notes. The referral reply and the chronic disease management report are separate drafts because they are read by different people for different reasons.
- NDIS and third-party schemes
- Progress against goals, attendance and the rationale for ongoing supports, in functional language. Drafted from the record rather than assembled from it on a Sunday.
Reports drafted from the notes you already signed
A report is only ever as good as the record underneath it, and the record is the part that gets squeezed. Anyhealth drafts NDIS progress reports, workers compensation letters, reports back to a referring GP and referral replies from the notes you have already signed for that patient.
The draft is a starting point, not a submission. You edit it, and it is yours to copy or download. Unlike a signed note, a letter is not written into your practice management software automatically — what leaves your hands is something you have read and decided to send.
Configured to your appointment types, not to a discipline
There is no physiotherapy edition of Anyhealth, and that is a feature rather than an omission. Note formats follow the appointment types your practice already runs, configured with you during onboarding, so the structure matches your practice rather than a template someone else chose.
It also means a practice with physiotherapists and a myotherapist in the same rooms gives both of them the right note. Chiropractors, myotherapists, audiologists, social workers, counsellors and any other allied health discipline that has to write up a consult are set up the same way.
Australian, and it stays that way
Audio, transcripts and clinical content are processed and stored in Australia, in AWS’s Sydney region. Note drafting runs on an Australia-only inference profile. Identifiable content is not used to train models.
Your clinical records remain the property of your practice. Signed notes are written back into your own practice management software as you sign them, so if you stop using Anyhealth the records are already where they belong.
Common questions
- Is Anyhealth an AI scribe for physiotherapists?
It does the job people mean by that, and then the part they do not. Anyhealth records the consult, drafts the note in your own format, and you read and sign it. The difference is where the note goes: back into your practice management software against the right patient and the right appointment, so the record and the booking system do not drift apart.
- Does it work in a busy list of fifteen-minute appointments?
That is the case it is built for. Recording starts and stops on the appointment, the draft is ready to read when the consult ends, and note formats are configured per appointment type so a short review is not prompted for the depth of an initial assessment.
- Can it produce a workers compensation report?
It drafts one from the notes you have already signed for that patient, and you edit it before sending. The draft is yours to copy or download; unlike a signed note, a letter is not written into your practice management software automatically.
Start with one of your own consults.
Every practice is onboarded by hand, so the first conversation is a real one: what you document, which system you are on, and whether Anyhealth fits. If it does not, we will say so.
