An AI SOAP documentation solution natively integrated into the chiropractic EHR, designed to minimize documentation burden so providers can stay present during visits and deliver exceptional patient care.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA,  5th February 2026 – zHealth, the leading practice management platform designed exclusively for wellness providers, today announced the launch of zHealth AI Scribe, a breakthrough AI-powered documentation solution that automatically generates comprehensive SOAP notes from patient encounters. Built natively into the zHealth system, AI Scribe represents a fundamental shift in how chiropractors document care, transforming hours of daily administrative work into minutes.

Documentation has become one of the most significant sources of professional burnout among wellness providers. Recent studies reveal the extent of this crisis.

40% of chiropractors report spending 40 hours weekly on patient care and documentation while 23% spend nearly 49 hours on documentation.

Burnout rates among chiropractors have increased by 34% over the past five years, with administrative burden cited as the primary contributing factor.

Introducing zHealth AI Scribe: Intelligence Built for Chiropractic

Unlike generic AI scribing tools that require manual data transfers or third-party integrations, zHealth AI Scribe is built directly into the core EHR platform. The system works seamlessly within existing chiropractic workflows:

How It Works:

• Capture: AI Scribe listens during in-person patient encounters.
• Process: Advanced LLM (Large Language Model) transcribe and structure the conversation.
• Generate: zHealth AI Scribe generates a comprehensive SOAP note, automatically.
• Review & Approve: Providers can review, edit if needed, and sign, maintaining full clinical control.

Key Features:

• Chiropractic-Specific Intelligence: Trained on actual chiropractic encounters, recognizing specialty terminology including subluxation patterns, adjustment techniques, therapeutic modalities, and functional assessments
• Custom Template Support: Works with SOAP or any custom documentation template your practice uses.
• Captures Encounters: Records in-person visits via ambient listening
• Advanced LLM: Automatically identifies chiropractic-specific details like pain scales, range of motion measurements, or neurological findings and automatically generates SOAP notes.
• Visit-Type Adaptation: Automatically adjusts documentation depth and focus based on appointment type, new patient exams, re-evaluations, maintenance care, or therapy-only visits

Patient privacy and data security are paramount. zHealth AI Scribe is built on enterprise-grade infrastructure:

• HIPAA-compliant architecture with end-to-end encryption
• Complete audit trails tracking every access, edit, and signature
• On-premise audio processing ensuring patient conversations never leave zHealth’s secure environment
• Zero data sharing with third-party AI vendors or external platforms

All AI-generated notes remain fully editable. Providers retain complete clinical autonomy, every note must be reviewed and approved before becoming part of the official medical record. AI Scribe functions as a documentation assistant, not a replacement for clinical judgment.

zHealth AI Scribe is available immediately to all zHealth Standard Plan customers. Existing users of Basic and Advanced Plan can activate AI Scribe as an add-on option.

AI Scribe is the first release in zHealth’s broader Intelligence Suite, which will bring AI automation to every aspect of chiropractic practice management:
