And we understand! When you see the multitude of options available, it quickly becomes a headache to know which one offers what, and above all, which one will suit you best.

During our discussions with self-employed physiotherapists, both newly established and more experienced, many confided in us how stressful this choice can be. So we decided to present here a selection of the most used and recommended software in the profession. This is not a ranking, but a clear and practical overview, according to your needs.

How to read this comparison?

We have categorized everything by need. Whether you are looking for an all-in-one software, a tool solely for appointment booking, a system specialized in BDK, or a solution for replacement or patient follow-up, it's all here.

If you already know what you're looking for, you can go directly to the corresponding section.

All-in-one practice management software

These software solutions are designed to easily manage all facets of your practice:

• Calendar

• Patient file

• Billing (SESAM-Vitale, third-party payment)

• Teletransmission

• Statistics

• Secure messaging

They allow you to centralize your data, avoid administrative errors, and focus on your care.

Appointment booking and organization software

These are particularly useful for improving the patient experience, avoiding missed appointments, and giving you more online visibility.

Software for BDK and clinical follow-up

These are tools designed to save time on assessments and structure your clinical evaluations. Practical for clean and shareable follow-up.

Software for patient follow-up and exercise prescription

These are quite useful if you want to maintain a connection with your patients between sessions and support them at home.

Tools for replacements, collaboration, and communication

Finding a replacement or collaborating smoothly is often a headache. These tools are there to streamline exchanges and facilitate organization.

And ChatGPT in all this?

So yes, it's not a physiotherapist software as such, but more and more professionals are using AI to help them in their daily lives. During our discussions with healthcare professionals, several told us they already use it for:

• Writing their assessments

• Creating care protocols

• Researching on PubMed or HAS

Those who have taken the time to learn how to use it have seen a considerable time saving in their practice.

⚠️ However, be careful: the use of AI like ChatGPT must never involve health data. The information you provide to these tools is used to train them, which does not comply with GDPR and is illegal for sensitive data.

👉 There is not yet a 100% compliant solution in terms of security and HDS hosting. But good news, at Markus Santé, we are actively working, in co-construction with professionals, to develop a sovereign and secure AI, adapted to health uses.
