Navigating medicinal cannabis prescriptions can be time-consuming. Clinicians must manage complex TGA guidelines, detailed documentation, and patient education – all while providing quality care. A recent review found that many GPs struggle with the workload and finding up-to-date cannabis prescribing evidence due to time constraints.
OnePhenix streamlines this workflow. This all-in-one, cloud-based practice management software is designed for medicinal cannabis prescribers, combining patient records, electronic prescribing, telehealth, billing, and compliance tools in a single, secure platform.
In this article, you’ll learn how the benefits of using OnePhenix translate into efficiency, simpler compliance, and more time for patient care.
1. Streamlined Patient Management and e-Prescribing
OnePhenix’s centralised patient management system means all data, medical histories, consultation notes, and medicinal cannabis prescriptions are stored in one place. This integrated clinic workflow eliminates scattered spreadsheets or paper charts. During a consult, you can:
- Access full patient records instantly (medications, past notes, care plans).
- Conduct integrated telehealth (secure video/audio) and share documents (referrals or certificates) in real time.
- Generate eScripts (electronic prescriptions) and send them directly to the patient’s pharmacy or email.
Because OnePhenix is designed with TGA compliance in mind, each e-prescription includes the necessary approvals (SAS-B or Authorised Prescriber documentation). In Australia, every unregistered medicinal cannabis product prescription requires approval through the TGA’s Special Access or Authorised Prescriber scheme.
OnePhenix automates these steps: you can auto-fill AP letters and six-monthly reports in one click. This compliance-ready ePrescribing is designed to reduce administrative workload and support accurate record-keeping.
2. Integrated Telehealth and Appointment Booking
OnePhenix unifies telehealth and scheduling in one system. Whether in-person or remote, you control your clinic schedule:
- Secure video/audio consults built in. Patients receive encrypted links; you can update notes immediately.
- Custom appointment types. Tailor durations and fees for each consult.
- Automated reminders and online booking. Patients can find you on CannaDr (OnePhenix’s patient directory) or your booking page, and book consultations 24/7.
Telehealth has been shown to reduce geographical barriers in healthcare delivery. OnePhenix integrates secure telehealth directly into your workflow, alongside an online appointment booking system. When you join, your profile is listed on CannaDr, a patient directory, making it easier for individuals seeking authorised prescribers to find and book appointments.
3. Automated Compliance and Reporting
Staying within TGA regulations is critical. OnePhenix simplifies every compliance step:
- Automated Authorised Prescriber (AP) letters and reports. Generate required documentation (e.g. justification letters, six-monthly TGA reports) with patient and prescription data auto-filled.
- Special Access Scheme (SAS-B) support. The system flags when an SAS-B application is needed and stores approval details.
- Integrated product library. Through The Compendium, prescribers access real-time product info – formulation, cost, live stock availability and clinical data – directly in the platform.
In Australia, “all products not registered on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) require approval from the TGA via the SAS or by becoming an Authorised Prescriber”. OnePhenix includes tools that support Authorised Prescribers, such as automated documentation and reporting features, to help streamline compliance tasks.
4. Simplified Billing and Payments
OnePhenix also streamlines billing and payments. It offers:
- Integrated billing (Medicare/DVA/Private). Process claims directly through Medipass.
- Secure payment gateways. Patients can pay via Zai, credit cards, or digital links.
- Automated claims management. Track claim status in real time.
- Transparent revenue tracking. Reports by service, provider, or location keep practice analytics current.
By consolidating payments, claims, and reporting in one platform, OnePhenix provides clear visibility over practice finances and supports accurate revenue management.
5. Enhanced Referrals and Patient Network
OnePhenix also strengthens patient care through connected tools:
- Patient directory listing (CannaDr). Profiles are featured on CannaDr, Australia’s online directory for medicinal cannabis prescribers. This increases visibility and helps patients connect with available practitioners.
- Customisable profiles. Highlight your areas of practice, set consultation types and fees, and brand your profile page.
- E-Referral tools. Generate and track specialist referrals or GP letters within the platform. Templates and auto-populated patient data make referrals efficient and accurate.
By combining visibility through CannaDr with secure referrals, OnePhenix helps prescribers build professional networks and maintain continuity of care.
6. Secure Data and Practice Analytics
Security and insights are integral to OnePhenix:
- End-to-end encrypted, AWS-hosted data. Hosted in Sydney with DDoS protection, ensuring local compliance and strong data security.
- Role-based access controls. Staff see only what they need.
- Privacy compliance. The system aligns with Australian Privacy Principles, with auditable actions across the platform.
- Performance dashboards. Built-in analytics show booking trends, demographics, and revenue. These practice performance dashboards turn data into actionable insights.
With enterprise-level security and built-in analytics, prescribers gain confidence in data protection and clear visibility of practice operations.
