Core Capabilities

The 8-Minute Rule, Handled Automatically

Nearly every competitor treats the 8-minute rule as a line item inside a broader compliance feature. For a rehab clinic it’s the single rule most responsible for under- and over-billing when it’s tracked manually.

Automatic Unit Calculation

Documented minutes translate directly into correct billable units.

No Exercise-by-Exercise Entry

Ther Ex, TA, Neuro, Manual, and Gait calculated without listing each one.

Threshold Alerts

Flags when documented time doesn’t support the units being billed.

Built into Documentation

Runs inside the note, not a separate calculator.
