Why Outpatient PT Clinics Need AI Documentation
Outpatient physical therapy clinics see high volumes of patients daily. Each visit requires detailed SOAP documentation — initial evaluations, daily treatment notes, re-evaluations, and discharge summaries. Manual documentation takes 10-15 minutes per visit, adding up to hours of unpaid work each day.
Claire eliminates the documentation burden. It listens to each visit, understands PT-specific terminology and measurements, and generates complete SOAP notes in real time.
How Claire Works in Outpatient Settings
- Open your patient's chart in your EMR (WebPT, Jane, Net Health, or 80+ others)
- Start the visit — click "Start" in the Claire Chrome extension
- Treat your patient — talk naturally, perform your evaluation, discuss the plan
- Review and push — Claire generates the note; one click sends it to your EMR
Claire handles the unique demands of outpatient PT: fast-paced visits, varied note types, and complex documentation requirements for insurance reimbursement.
