Allied Health software — frequently asked
Pulled from real procurement and demo questions. FAQ schema is emitted alongside this section so the answers Google reads match what you see.
- What is allied health software, and how is CareOS different?
- Allied health software is the practice management system a clinic or community allied health team uses for online booking, diary, clinical notes, billing across Medicare/DVA/HICAPS/NDIS, and AHPRA registration tracking. CareOS covers the same depth as a clinic-first product, but adds NDIS-funded episode tracking, NDIS provider rostering when needed, and a shared Person record across NDIS and aged care arms — for practices that share clients across funding streams or that grow into registered NDIS provider work.
- Which allied health disciplines does CareOS support?
- Twelve disciplines including physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech pathology, psychology, podiatry, dietetics, exercise physiology, audiology, and social work. Discipline-specific framing is available at /allied-health/disciplines for the most-searched specialties — physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech pathology, and psychology — each with AHPRA Board (or SPA for speech) credential tracking and discipline-aware MBS rules.
- Are clinical session notes ever sent to external AI services?
- No. AES-256 encrypted clinical session notes are never sent to external AI APIs under any circumstances — this is a hard product contract, not a configuration toggle. AI features that assist documentation operate only on structural metadata (session type, goal IDs, duration), and every AI-drafted output is labelled and held for clinician review before finalisation. See /responsible-ai for the full AI governance contract.
- Can I bill Medicare, DVA, NDIS, and private clients on the same diary?
- Yes. Medicare bulk-billing and patient claims for MBS items, DVA Gold and White card billing, NDIS-funded plan-managed and self-managed episodes, HICAPS Go gap claiming for private health, and WorkCover/TAC pathways all sit on the same diary with funder-aware billing rules per session — without exporting between products.
- Are AHPRA registration and CPD tracked?
- Yes. AHPRA registration with status, conditions, and renewal expiry, plus CPD hours per registration year, sit on the practitioner record alongside NDIS Worker Screening for clinicians who also work with NDIS participants. Speech pathologists are tracked via Speech Pathology Australia (SPA), the discipline’s self-regulating body. Credential expiry sweeps surface upcoming renewals before they impact rostering.
- How does AI help allied health practices in CareOS?
- AI drafts SOAP-style session summaries from structural metadata for clinician review, pre-validates Medicare claim items against MBS rules and telehealth eligibility before submission, and assists telehealth post-session captioning. The encrypted clinical body is never sent to external AI APIs — a key procurement differentiator for practices that share clients with NDIS or aged care arms.
- Can a clinic that delivers NDIS-funded therapy use the same product as a registered NDIS provider?
- Yes. Plan-managed and self-managed NDIS-funded episodes record alongside Medicare and DVA episodes on the same Person record. Practices that grow into registered NDIS provider work add NDIS rostering, SCHADS payroll, support coordination, and Practice Standards evidence in the same product without a second platform fee.
