Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Essence.

Essence is built for HIPAA compliance — encrypted data storage, audit logging, role-based access controls, and strict per-clinic data isolation — and we are executing Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with every vendor in our infrastructure ahead of our clinical launch. Join the launch waitlist below to be notified when our BAA-backed clinical launch goes live.

Simply click record and speak naturally about your patient encounter. Our AI transcribes your speech in real-time, then structures it into a proper SOAP note with Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan sections. You review, make any edits, and sign.

Absolutely — that's how most practitioners start. Essence currently focuses on the documentation workflow: patient records, SOAP notes, and AI dictation. Use it side-by-side with your current system today, and as we add scheduling, insurance claims, and more, Essence will progressively grow into a complete EMR you can fully transition to.

You'll see a notification when approaching your limits. You can upgrade your plan at any time to get more capacity. Your existing data is never affected by plan limits — you just won't be able to create new records until you upgrade.

Absolutely. All data is encrypted at rest and in transit. We use enterprise-grade infrastructure with audit logging, access controls, and regular security reviews. Your patient data is isolated to your account and never shared.

No. Essence is 100% browser-based. Just visit essence-health.com, log in, and start documenting. It works on any modern browser — desktop, laptop, or tablet.

We're building Essence into a complete EMR for physical therapy. Coming soon: appointment scheduling and calendar views, multi-therapist practice support, insurance and claims management, a patient portal for intake forms and appointment booking, and reporting and analytics. Each feature is released when it's ready — quality over speed.
