Glivent for physiotherapy

Reduce the administration around patient care without taking clinical control away from practitioners.

Referrals, direct enquiries, patient forms, payer details and reports can create work before and after every appointment. Glivent can run and coordinate much of that administration while your practitioners remain responsible for care.

The real work

The administration changes with the patient and the payer.

A straightforward private booking may need little preparation. A referral, compensable claim, NDIS arrangement or report request can add documents, checks and follow-up across reception, practitioners and accounts.

Patients enter the practice in different ways

Some people book directly. Others arrive through a GP, insurer, employer, support coordinator or another health professional, often with documents that need to be matched to the right patient.

The payer changes what administration is required

Private payment, Medicare, private health, NDIS, DVA and workers compensation can involve different details, approvals, service limits, invoices and reports.

Important information sits outside the appointment book

Referral letters, imaging, forms, emails and funder correspondence may arrive separately from the patient record and need to reach the right person before a decision is made.

Clinical time gets pulled into follow-up

Practitioners may need to answer report requests, check missing information or clarify the next step when the practice cannot assemble the full context for them.

One practical starting point

Turn a referral or direct enquiry into an intake ready for practitioner review.

This is one example of what Glivent could do in your practice. During discovery, we would adapt it to your services, patient mix, payer requirements, practice software and clinical review rules.

01
Capture the source
Keep the referral, enquiry, form, email or attachment with the intake record.
02
Match the patient
Find the existing patient or prepare a new record without creating avoidable duplicates.
03
Check the administration
Confirm the contact, consent, referral and payer details required for this pathway.
04
Resolve missing information
Prepare the approved request for anything reception or the practitioner still needs.
05
Present the intake for review
Give the practitioner the source documents and completed administrative context in one place.

Your practice and clinical systems remain authoritative. With approved access and rules, Glive can gather documents, run intake checks, update administrative records and send agreed requests or reminders. Practitioners retain responsibility for clinical suitability, priority, assessment, treatment and clinical reporting.

The Glive System

One place to handle the work around the patient record.

Staff should not need to reconstruct an intake from the appointment book, inbox, scanned documents and payer portal. Glive Hub can bring the administrative work and its source information together with access set for each role.

Glive Flow

Move administrative work to the right person.

Run the agreed checks, request missing information and present each handoff with the relevant source documents attached.

Glive Chat

Work with approved practice knowledge.

Help staff find current procedures, service information and administrative requirements without treating general guidance as clinical advice.

Glive Pod

Keep suitable patient-document work onsite.

Approved tasks involving sensitive patient documents can use Private AI on the Glive Pod when local processing is the right design.

Workflows worth testing

Start with administration that repeatedly interrupts the practice.

Discovery checks what your practice management, booking, claiming and accounting systems already handle before another workflow is proposed.

Referral and direct-enquiry intake

What arrives: A patient, GP or other referrer sends an enquiry and supporting documents.
What Glive does: Glive matches the patient, retains the source and checks the agreed administrative information for that intake path.
Control point: The practitioner decides clinical suitability, priority and the next care step. Staff approve any booking or reply.

Missing-information follow-up

What arrives: A referral, form or payer record is incomplete before the appointment.
What Glive does: Glive identifies missing agreed fields and sends the approved routine request with the case context attached.
Control point: Routine administrative requests can run automatically. Clinical questions, unusual payer issues and uncertain consent go to reception or the practitioner.

Report and correspondence preparation

What arrives: A referrer, funder or insurer asks for a report or progress update.
What Glive does: Glive gathers the request, approved template and relevant source records, then prepares a structured draft for review where appropriate.
Control point: The treating practitioner checks the clinical content, changes it as needed and decides whether to sign and release it.

Claim and funding exception queue

What arrives: A claim, authorisation or invoice cannot continue because information is missing or inconsistent.
What Glive does: Glive brings the patient, service, payer details and available evidence into one administrative review.
Control point: Authorised staff correct the record, contact the payer or patient, or escalate the matter before resubmission.

Existing systems

Your patient record stays in charge.

Glivent first checks the features already available in your practice management, clinical record, booking, claiming and accounting systems. The aim is to remove repeated coordination around those systems, not create a second patient record.

Your systems and practitioners remain authoritative for

Patient identity, contact details, consent and appointments
Clinical history, assessments, notes and treatment plans
Practitioner availability, services and clinical documentation
Claims, payments, invoices and formal financial records

Glive can use them to complete approved work

Referral, form, email and document intake
Checks against agreed administrative requirements
Queues with missing information, source evidence and ownership
Staff-approved follow-up and practitioner-reviewed drafts

Physiotherapy questions and practical guides.

These resources explain referral intake, patient-document processing and allied health administration in more detail.

Can a physiotherapy practice use Private AI for patient documents?

Yes. Glivent Private AI can process approved patient-document tasks on the onsite Glive Pod. A physiotherapy practice could use it to classify documents, find information in approved records or prepare a draft for practitioner review without sending that model task to a public AI provider.

How can Glivent improve referral intake in a physiotherapy practice?

Glivent can review how referrals arrive, what staff have to check, where information is missing and how each referral reaches the right practitioner. A suitable first system may organise intake and follow-up while leaving clinical acceptance and prioritisation with authorised staff.
