The Autonomous
Care Engine.
Don't just write Care Plans. Execute them.
ACUMEN automates patient recalls, data collection, and compliance checks—generating Item 732 revenue while you sleep.
ACUMEN: Australian Chronic Care & Unified Medical Engagement Network
The Missing Layer in Your Practice
ACUMEN isn't a replacement for your clinical software. It's the intelligent compliance layer that sits on top—protecting your revenue and automating the busywork.
ACUMEN
The Intelligence Layer
Your Clinical Software
Best Practice / MedicalDirector / Zedmed
Your existing Practice Management System handles appointments, prescriptions, and notes. We don't replace it—we read the data and add intelligence on top.
Medicare MBS (Items 721/723/732)
The billing framework stays the same. ACUMEN just makes sure you claim it correctly—every time.
The "Inertia of Care" is Costing You Millions
Care Plans shouldn't just be documents that sit in a drawer. They should be living workflows that execute themselves.
Medicare compliance reviews are increasing. One rejected Item 723 claim can trigger a full audit.
Each GPMP takes 15-20 minutes to write properly. That's time not spent with patients.
Most practices forget to recall patients for their Item 732 reviews. That's $78.55 walking out the door.
- •Manual care plan writing (ChatGPT copy-paste).
- •No verification that plan meets MBS criteria before billing.
- •Missed 732 reviews due to no recall system.
- •Audit exposure with no documentation trail.
- •AI-generated plans mapped to MBS requirements.
- •Pre-billing compliance check flags issues before claiming.
- •Automated SMS recalls for 732 reviews.
- •Complete audit trail with timestamped documentation.
One Platform, Three Revenue Streams
Protect your existing Medicare billings, unlock new private payer income, and streamline aged care coordination—all from a single dashboard.
The Audit Shield
Revenue OptimizerMaximize your Item 721, 723, and 732 revenue while eliminating audit risk. Our AI pre-checks every claim before you bill.
- Pre-Audit Compliance: Scans patient files before billing. "Warning: Only 1 Allied Health referral found. Item 723 requires 2."
- Auto-Generated Plans: AI writes care plans mapped to MBS requirements (Goals, Needs, Actions).
- Recall Automation: Detects when Item 732 (Review) is due and SMSes patient to book. Pure profit.
Medicare audits are increasing. A single clawback can cost $10,000+. This tool pays for itself by preventing one rejected claim.
How It Works

Item 732 Reviews Due
3 ReadyOne Referral. We Handle the Rest.
Upload a referral just like you would for a diabetes specialist. ACUMEN analyzes it, generates the care plan, and kicks off the automated workflow—recalls, compliance checks, and all.
Referral-Triggered Automation
Upload the referral. ACUMEN reads it, extracts patient details, and generates a compliant GPMP with Goals, Needs, and Actions—all mapped to MBS requirements.
Pre-Billing Compliance Check
Before you bill Item 721 or 723, ACUMEN scans the file. "Warning: Only 1 Allied Health referral found. Item 723 requires 2."
