Tasks, by type of work.

Each task has an experience tag (CX, SX or BX), a verdict, and example agents that often help with this kind of work. Agent suggestions come from our editorial scores, not vendor claims.

Inbox

Answer questions about appointments, fees, what to bring and what a first visit involves

Common questions can be drafted from the clinic information. Anything about a particular symptom, a herb or a reaction goes to the practitioner.

CX · Customer experience Amplify

Example agents

Bookings & calendar

Confirm appointments and send review or follow-up visit reminders

Reminders can run automatically from the care plan, which helps a treatment course stay on track between visits.

CX · Customer experience Automate

Example agents

Phone & voice

Talk with a client who is unwell, anxious, or unhappy with how they have responded

This needs care and professional judgement, and should come from the practitioner, not a templated message.

CX · Customer experience Keep human

Spreadsheets & data

Keep the client's record and next-visit plan up to date

Approved notes can be filed against the record automatically, so the next visit starts from an accurate file rather than a memory of the last one.

Example agents

Documents

Write treatment notes after each visit

An agent can draft notes from a short voice memo. The practitioner must confirm them, because they guide the next visit and any referring clinician.

CX · Customer experience Amplify

Write a clear home-care or herbal-use guide for the client

An agent can draft a tidy handout from the agreed plan. The practitioner checks that the wording is safe, realistic and does not overstep what was actually advised.

CX · Customer experience Amplify

Example agents

Send intake, consent and health-history forms before a first visit

Forms can go out with the booking and be filed when signed, so the first consultation is not spent on paperwork.

CX · Customer experience Automate

Example agents

Prepare invoices and health fund or private-billing claims from the visit record

Item codes can be suggested from the appointment type and checked before billing, which saves time at the end of a clinic day.

BX · Business experience Automate

Write a letter or update for a GP, referrer or other practitioner

An agent can draft from the file. The practitioner reviews every conclusion before it goes out, especially anything that could be read as a diagnosis.

CX · Customer experience Amplify

Example agents

Research

Look up current guidance on a herb, a technique or a safety question

An agent can find official or professional guidance quickly. How it applies to this client, including interactions and when to refer, stays with the practitioner.

BX · Business experience Amplify

Example agents

Customer chat

Assess the client's concerns and agree a treatment and wellness plan

This is a careful consultation about health, history and what is realistic. An agent can help with background notes, but the assessment and the advice should stay with the practitioner.

Deliver the treatment in the clinic, whether that is acupuncture, manual work, herbal advice or another modality
