Ergomania — V2 Vision
Ergomania V2 VISION
Version 2 · Swiss & German healthcare markets

V1 planned a session. V2 carries a prescription.

The unit of work in Swiss and German ergotherapy is not the session — it is the physician's prescription: 9 units in Switzerland, extendable to 18, then 27. V2 is built around that spine: it plans whole blocks, adapts them to real progress, and produces the reports that keep the prescription cycle moving — in the recipient's language.

What v2 does

Prescription-block planning · 9 / 18 / 27

Drafts a whole block against the Foundation → Growth → Consolidation phase model, scaled to 9, 18, or 27 sessions. Rule-based checkpoints every 3–4 sessions compare ratings to the expected corridor; off-corridor cases trigger a recalibration draft — revised remaining sessions plus a pre-filled physician report for the extension. Slower progress reshapes the plan; faster progress pulls consolidation and caregiver carryover forward. Always as a draft.

A calendar that thinks in prescriptions

The week view carries therapy, school visits, parent meetings, and report deadlines. Each session chip knows its place in the block — and warns when remaining units won't fit before the prescription's validity ends, when a report is due before a physician visit, or when cancellations start eating the block.

Report studio · five audiences

One documented truth, rendered per recipient: physician (Verlaufsbericht for the follow-up prescription), insurer (medical necessity, measurable outcomes), teacher (classroom strategies, no diagnosis, consent-gated), parents (plain language, in the family's language), practice director (aggregated utilization and outcomes, no case details).

Uploads that become structure

A photo of the Verordnung becomes parsed prescription fields. A voice memo becomes a transcript feeding the session note. School questionnaires, standardized scores (Sensory Profile 2, M-FUN), prior reports, photos of work products — parsed, summarized, attached to the case. Faces and names are refused at the door.

Six languages, two of them Swiss

UI in DE, Swiss German, FR, IT, EN, ES. More importantly: the language of the record is separate from the language of the UI — the physician's report renders in High German (Swiss orthography, ss not ß), the parent letter in the family's Spanish, from the same approved content. The therapist attests each translation.

Mentor mode for early-career OTs

A toggle, not a tier: every recommendation exposes its "why" (Ayres SI®, motor learning, OTPF-4 references), checkpoints come with supervision-prep questions, and the week view surfaces reflective prompts before supervision. Senior therapists switch it off; new graduates keep a structured thinking partner.

What v2 is willing to do — and what it refuses

Willing
  • Draft anything documentary: plans, notes, reports, letters, recalibrations.
  • Argue a recommendation — and show the ratings it rests on.
  • Flag its own uncertainty and propose the supervision question.
  • Prepare the extension case early, so the prescription never lapses by surprise.
Refuses
  • Diagnose, or word anything so it reads like a diagnosis from the software.
  • Embellish outcomes for an insurer — reports cite only documented ratings.
  • Contact parents, schools, or physicians on its own.
  • Accept identifying uploads: faces, names, class lists — stripped or refused.
  • Cross the approval gate. Ever. That is the product.

The unknown unknowns

Twelve things that don't appear in a feature list but decide whether v2 survives contact with a Swiss or German Praxis. Each is a design input, not a footnote.

01 · Markt

The prescription is the customer journey

Intake, planning, reporting, and revenue all hang off the Verordnung cycle. If v2 models sessions but not prescriptions — validity windows, remaining units, report-before-renewal — it automates the wrong loop.

02 · Markt

Two payers, two grammars

In CH, pediatric developmental cases often run via IV (disability insurance), not KVG — different goals (participation, schooling) and different report formats than illness-framed insurer reports. DE adds GKV vs PKV and the new Blankoverordnung, where the therapist owns frequency and duration but carries more documentation duty.

03 · Klinik

Cancellations eat blocks

Sick children, school holidays, no-shows: a 9-unit block rarely runs in 9 weeks. Absence handling, validity-window math, and "will this block finish before the Verordnung expires?" warnings are core planning logic, not edge cases.

04 · Sprache

Dialect is spoken, records are written

Swiss German is a UI comfort and a therapy-room reality — but no report is ever written in it. CH documents use High German with Swiss orthography (ss, not ß), CHF, and DD.MM.YYYY. The language system must separate UI language, record language, and recipient language.

05 · Recht

Consent is a data model

Who may receive what? Separated parents with joint custody, school reports needing parental consent, photos needing their own consent line. v2 treats consent as structured, per-recipient state that gates exports — not a checkbox in a PDF.

06 · Recht

Health data wants a home address

revDSG (CH) and GDPR (DE) treat health data as specially protected; practices will ask where the servers are before they ask what the AI does. CH hosting for CH customers, EU hosting for DE, processing agreements, and a plain-language data map are sales collateral, not legal fine print.

07 · Recht

The medical-device line

Software that recommends therapy adaptations can drift into MDR / Swissmedic territory, and the EU AI Act watches health AI closely. V2's architecture is also its regulatory posture: drafts only, therapist decides, no autonomous clinical output — documented as such from day one.

08 · Klinik

The anti-embellishment guarantee

The quiet fear about AI reports is fraud: outcomes polished to win continuations. V2 inverts it into a feature — reports cite only documented ratings, and the audit trail proves it. That guarantee is worth more to a Praxis than any writing quality.

09 · Praxis

Waitlists shape everything

Months-long pediatric waitlists are the norm. Efficient documentation is capacity: every saved minute is a waitlist minute. The director report should say so — minutes saved, blocks completed on time, children seen sooner.

10 · Praxis

Therapists get sick too

Substitution is a weekly reality in group practices. A case must be handable: a structured handover pack — current block state, active cues, contraindications, next planned session — generated in one click, without exposing the whole record.

11 · Technik

School basements have no Wi-Fi

Therapy happens in schools, homes, and gyms with dead zones. Notes and ratings must capture offline and sync later; the one moment the therapist has 90 seconds to document cannot depend on connectivity.

12 · Vertrauen

Ten-year memory

Clinical records carry ~10-year retention duties in both markets. Export-everything (open formats, no lock-in) and versioned plan snapshots aren't features — they're the condition under which a careful Praxisleitung signs at all.
