Using Rehab Guru AI (RGai) Plus for Transcription and Treatment Notes

Rehab Guru AI (RGai) Plus is an in-workflow assistant that follows you throughout Rehab Guru and helps automate key tasks, including consultation transcription, treatment note creation and letter writing.

Written by Cloudia Barr

Updated for the new Rehab Guru design. Transcriptions now sit in the section menu on the left of the client's record, with their actions in the ... menu on each recording. See What's new: the Rehab Guru redesign.

Previously available only as an invitation-only beta, RGai Plus is now available to all users with the appropriate add-on.

Please note that RGai becomes RGai Plus when the Treatment Notes & Forms addon is added to your Subscription.

This video shows the previous design; the steps below are up to date.

Creating Treatment Notes from a Transcription

One of the biggest time-saving features of RGai Plus is converting transcriptions directly into treatment notes.

  1. In the client's Transcriptions section, click the ... menu at the end of the recording and choose Create treatment note.

2. Choose a treatment note template (for example, SOAP notes)

Selecting one of your Treatment Note templates from the AI tool.

The transcription will automatically conform to the selected template.

The AI system compiles the content into a draft treatment note.

Reviewing and Saving Draft Treatment Notes

Once generated:

  • The draft will populate Subjective, Objective, Action, and Plan sections (for the example of a SOAP note)

  • You can review and edit the content as needed

  • Save the note as a Draft or Final.

You can also add the treatment note as context into your AI chat for further assistance: open the note in the client's Treatment notes section and click AI chat.

Adjusting How RGai Transcription Autofills your Notes

To influence how RGai compiles your Treatment Note from a Transcription, go to Account > Content Management > Forms, click the ... menu on the relevant form and choose Edit.

Click Advanced Configuration under each relevant question, and provide AI Instructions for LLM to guide how the Form is compiled (e.g. "complete all notes in bullet point format"). Click Done, then Save the form.
