In PT notes
Physical therapy, on one record
ArkCloud Rehab keeps an outpatient physical therapy clinic on one record: the referral, the schedule, the evaluation and plan of care, each signed daily note and the charge that visit produces.
Every episode of care is opened for a discipline. A physical therapy episode gets physical therapy note sections, and its visits are released to billing only on a note signed by a clinician your administrator has granted physical therapy. Occupational therapy and speech-language pathology work on the same patient record, so a patient seen by more than one discipline is still one patient.
Range of motion and strength, by joint and side
Active and passive range of motion by joint and side, manual muscle test grades, and how the patient tolerated treatment, recorded by selection. The previous visit's values are never copied forward.
Read how it worksReferral to billing
Available
A referral opens a physical therapy episode, the visit is booked and documented in physical therapy sections, and the signed note releases the charge. ArkCloud RCM then builds the claim for your clearinghouse (clearinghouse built, not connected).
Every step, on the ArkCloud Rehab pagePhysical therapy evaluation codes
AvailableArkCloud knows 97161 to 97164 as the physical therapy evaluation and re-evaluation codes. An evaluation code from another discipline on a physical therapy episode is held, with the reason, until the code or the episode is corrected.
GP on Medicare lines
AvailableOn a Medicare line, GP is added to the charge from the episode's discipline. A line that already carries GO or GN is held for correction rather than changed.
Plan of care certification for Medicare
AvailableA Medicare visit is held out of billing until a certification of the plan of care covering its date of service is recorded. The initial evaluation is exempt, because it is what produces the plan.

Alongside the sections every note shares, evaluations and visit notes in an episode of physical therapy carry these sections of their own. They are optional headings the clinician fills in or leaves out; none of them supplies a finding.
Made for PT
Record the visit by tapping, not typing; Mobility and assistance, one activity at a time: The pick-list wording follows common practice and has not yet had clinical sign-off for this product. Anything it does not cover is written in the note as usual.
Available
Pain score and where it is, the trend since the last visit, the interventions provided, active and passive range of motion by joint and side, manual muscle test grades, and how the patient tolerated treatment. Nothing is filled in for the therapist, and the previous visit's values are never copied forward.
Available
For walking, stairs, transfers and other activities, the therapist records how much help each one took and what it looked like, such as a gait pattern or rail use. Every observation is chosen by a clinician and says whether it was observed or reported.
Available
Build a program from your clinic's exercise library on the episode. Suggestions are drawn from the documented findings and plan of care and checked against the patient's recorded precautions, and the therapist chooses every exercise and sets every dose.
Available
Timed units are checked against the minutes recorded using the 8-minute rule, and a visit with more units than its minutes support is flagged rather than silently changed. The KX modifier is suggested once a Medicare patient's yearly therapy spending passes the threshold, counted for physical therapy and speech-language pathology together. It is never added automatically.
