CarePlan & CarePlan+ — Building Accurate, Repeatable Treatment & Estimate Flows

CarePlan is the treatment, estimate, and wellness planning system inside ClinicOS.
It turns clinical decisions into clear, client-ready plans — fast, consistent, and safety-checked.

With CarePlan+, clinics can create custom estimate flows that guide CarePlan using structured logic, triggers, keywords, and verification steps.
These flows help providers build surgical plans, wellness packages, and multi-step treatments with less rework and fewer omissions.


What CarePlan Does

CarePlan brings together data from the visit, treatments, and safety systems to generate draft plans that the provider reviews and finalizes.

It supports:

Automatic Drafting

If ChronicleAI captured a treatment conversation during the exam, CarePlan can pull those details into a draft plan for review.

Smart Prepopulation

Based on the documented plan, CarePlan suggests:

  • services

  • medications

  • procedures

  • diagnostics

These are recommendations, not final selections. Providers must review all items for clinical appropriateness.

Safety Checks

Every medication and treatment is routed through RXGuard so:

  • dosing

  • interactions

  • contraindications

  • DEA logging steps

are surfaced before the estimate is shown to the client.

Estimate Output

The final plan can be turned into an estimate that:

  • is editable

  • follows clinic pricing

  • can be printed or shared digitally

Estimates flow into Payments only after provider approval.


What CarePlan+ Adds

CarePlan+ lets clinics design custom “estimate flows” — structured templates that teach CarePlan how to recommend, organize, and verify items for specific procedures.

These flows allow clinics to standardize:

  • Surgical plans (e.g., spay/neuter, dentals, mass removals)

  • Wellness packages

  • Recurring treatment bundles

  • Condition-specific care sequences

How CarePlan+ Works

Each flow can include:

1. Triggers

Keywords or clinical phrases that signal the correct plan to load.
Example:
“Dental,” “COHAT,” “cleaning” → Dental Flow triggers.

2. Required Items

Items that must be reviewed before approval:

  • anesthetic protocol

  • pre-op bloodwork

  • pain control

  • post-op medications

3. Conditional Items

Items that appear only when the condition applies:

  • IV catheter for senior pets

  • repeat radiographs

  • hospitalization tiers

4. Verification Steps

Checks to ensure no critical components are missing.

5. Cost Structure

Flows calculate estimate totals using the clinic’s fee schedule and service bundles — not AI-calculated prices.

CarePlan+ does not set prices.
It applies the clinic’s existing pricing based on the structure you define.


What You Can Do in CarePlan

Create & Review Plans

Start from:

  • ChronicleAI-drafted plans

  • Manual entry

  • CarePlan+ flows

Edit Treatments

Modify any service, medication, or diagnostic.

Apply Estimate Flows

Choose a CarePlan+ flow to quickly assemble consistent, accurate treatment plans that match your clinic’s protocols.

Finalize & Share

Generate PDF estimates or send digital versions through your communication tools.

Link Follow-Ups

Connect approved plans to ongoing schedules, reminders, and CarePlan follow-through.


Why CarePlan Matters

Saves Time

No more rebuilding surgical plans from scratch.
Flows eliminate repetitive clicking and ensure nothing gets forgotten.

Reduces Errors

RXGuard validation and flow-based verification catch issues early.

Improves Client Confidence

Plans look organized, intentional, and consistent across providers.

Supports Compliance

Safety checks and DEA requirements run in the background — with full provider oversight.


Example in Action

A provider discusses a dental cleaning during an exam. ChronicleAI captures:

“We’ll recommend pre-op bloodwork, anesthesia, dental cleaning, extractions if necessary, and post-op analgesia.”

Here’s what happens:

  1. CarePlan drafts a dental estimate.

  2. CarePlan+ applies the “Dental Flow,” adding required services in the correct order.

  3. Conditional items (like IV catheter or senior screening) appear based on the patient’s profile.

  4. RXGuard validates medications and doses.

  5. The provider reviews and adjusts.

  6. The finalized estimate is ready in minutes.


Important Notes

  • CarePlan+ is optional but strongly recommended for clinics wanting consistent surgical and wellness plans.

  • All flows require provider review.
    CarePlan and CarePlan+ do not replace clinical judgment or dosing verification.

  • RXGuard alerts support — they do not override — provider responsibility.

  • Pricing is determined by your clinic’s fee schedule, not AI.

  • Providers remain fully responsible for the accuracy of all estimates and medical decisions.
