PT Practice Pro vs Zanda

PT Practice Pro is a cloud-based EMR and practice management platform for outpatient physical, occupational, speech-language, and pediatric therapy practices. It combines patient records, treatment documentation, scheduling, billing, exercise programs, and telehealth in one system. Clinicians can create SOAP evaluations, daily and progress notes, discharge summaries, therapy templates, and flowsheets. AI tools draft SOAP notes and suggest goals and codes, while clinicians review and sign them. Scheduling handles drag-and-drop appointments, recurring visits, conflict detection, and coordination across providers and locations. Signed notes connect with billing and claims through payer-rule checks, claim scrubbing, and denial management. Therapists can assign video-based home exercise programs and track adherence through a portal, with Wibbi providing an exercise library. Browser telehealth includes encrypted video, reminders, screen sharing, and a waiting room without an app. The service runs on Android, iOS, and the web, with no machine-by-machine installation. Pricing is on request.

Zanda is a cloud-based practice management system for health practices, bringing administrative tasks into a browser service. It includes appointment scheduling, clinical notes, client management, digital forms, billing, reporting, a client portal, reminders, online payments, waitlists, and recurring appointments. It supports Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. Every plan includes AI writing and editing, four AI Scribe appointments per month, and AI Insights across each client’s last three sessions. Zoom-powered telehealth is available; the optional Telehealth Pro add-on provides unlimited calls for $9 a month per practitioner. Zanda lists integrations including Xero, Stripe, Mailchimp, calendar services, Physitrack, Medicare, DVA, and Tyro. The public API is in beta, with read-oriented access to practice data; beta enrolments are closed. The company says data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and accounts can be hosted in Australia, the UK, or the US. Starter costs $19 a month and is limited to one practitioner and 1,000 appointments; a 14-day trial is available, but there is no free plan.
