Prepare a referral and a PMB motivation from selected notes

Use selected notes from a fictional admission to generate drafts, review the wording, complete the referral and PMB fields and inspect both previews. No referral is sent and no medical-scheme approval is requested.
Edited demonstration made from actual app screens and fictional records. Steps are condensed; timings are not a performance claim. Nothing is sent to a real patient, pharmacy, clinician or medical scheme.
Use the video’s full-screen control to inspect the app details.

A referral with the right context

Choose the intended recipient, destination and urgency. Enter or review the clinical summary, reason for referral and relevant findings, then open the document preview.
With the optional AI tool, select the notes you want to use as context. The generated text is a starting point: check the reason for referral, chronology, medicines and whether each statement comes from the selected record. Complete any missing information before sharing.

Prepare the PMB motivation

The PMB workflow brings the diagnosis, ICD-10 information, relevant category and supporting clinical narrative together in a document. The clinician selects and reviews the applicable fields and records the authorisation context.
AI can help draft the narrative from selected notes. It does not determine benefit eligibility, obtain authorisation or approve cover. The final document still needs the practice’s review and the receiving scheme’s process.

Separate planned treatment from completed treatment

An admission record may contain a proposed plan alongside care already delivered. Read every generated paragraph for that distinction. Do not leave a proposed investigation or treatment phrased as completed if the record does not support it.
Check dates, urgency and emergency statements explicitly. If a required fact is missing, add the correct information yourself instead of allowing the draft to supply an assumption.

Review the preview and the destination

Use the preview to inspect the finished layout and the patient, recipient and prescriber details together. A saved or shared PDF is a document output; it is not proof that a referral was accepted or a claim was authorised.
The demonstration follows a fictional heart-failure admission through a referral and PMB draft. The category and narrative shown belong to that example and should not be copied as a blanket rule for another patient.

Questions about referrals & pmb letters

Do I need AI to create these letters?

No. The structured referral and PMB forms are core tools. The optional AI add-on helps draft text from selected notes.

Does PracProof approve PMB benefits?

No. It helps prepare documentation. Eligibility, authorisation and payment are determined through the relevant clinical and medical-scheme processes.

Core tools free. AI when you want it.
