Managing session packages in your physiotherapy clinic

Structuring multi-session treatment plans

Many patients require a course of multiple treatment sessions to recover from injury or post-surgical conditions. Clinic owners often structure these care plans as physiotherapy session packs. Managing these multi-session packages effectively requires clear tracking of appointments, clinical notes, and financial records.

When a patient enrols, you record their condition, diagnoses, and medical history. This forms the foundation for their multi-session care plan. Assigning specific staff members ensures that treating physiotherapists access only the patients under their care, while clinic owners retain full visibility across all active treatment packages.

Setting up repeat bookings on the calendar

To streamline physio package management, scheduling multiple sessions in advance prevents calendar conflicts and maintains consistent treatment intervals. In PhysioDesk, you can set up repeat bookings directly within the Calendar menu to lock in regular appointment slots for a patient's care plan.

When a patient attends a session, the therapist marks the appointment as completed and records the session notes. Once marked completed, the session becomes a permanent record. While the session notes can be updated later as treatment progresses, the completed session record itself cannot be altered, ensuring accurate operational tracking.

Accurate billing based on completed sessions

Handling clinic session packages requires transparent financial management. Instead of relying on manual counters or loose spreadsheets, billing should reflect actual care delivered to the patient.

In PhysioDesk, bills are calculated based on the sessions actually taken within a selected date range. Each patient has their own session rate assigned in their record. When you generate a bill, the software calculates the precise total in your clinic's currency. Bills are produced as clear PDF documents complete with a QR code that allows anyone to verify their authenticity. You can also share these bills directly with patients over WhatsApp.

Keeping patients informed through the portal

Patient adherence to a session package improves when patients can easily view their schedule and progress. Patients can log into the PhysioDesk patient portal and mobile app using their registered mobile number. They receive a verification code via WhatsApp for their first sign-in and then set their own password.

Inside the portal, patients can review their scheduled appointments, view prescribed home exercise programmes, and access their billing details. Clinics maintain full control over patient visibility and can choose to hide past history or bills if required. Reminders are also sent to help patients attend every booked session in their package.
