RootQ · Clinical decision assistance

Reasoning support for complex post-viral illness.

RootQ is a clinical decision-assistance tool for Long COVID, ME/CFS, dysautonomia, POTS, and related post-viral syndromes. It uses adaptive data collection, deterministic rules, and hierarchical multi-stage inference to help clinicians organize complex histories and decide what belongs in the care plan.

RootQ is neither an EMR nor an AI scribe. It does not use generative AI or machine learning for clinical reasoning or report generation. Clinicians review the plan and approve patient materials. When Patient Summary is selected, its approval covers the other selected handouts.

Built for your whole team

Explore the current dashboards, patient tables, consult gap review, and handoffs using fictional records in the interactive demo.

Front Desk

Create intake links, track completed and pending paperwork, and book procedures and follow-up once the signed review, snapshot, and patient materials are ready.

MA / Clinical Staff

Work the Lean Test queue, verify uploaded measurements, enter results or use LeanQ, and handle released handouts.

Clinician

Work the gap-review and handout queues, review LEAN interpretations, clarify the encounter, confirm mechanisms, and select the plan.

Clinic Admin

Complete approved medication and test orders, coordinate paperwork, and manage clinic users and setup.

Clinic Owner

Oversee clinic operations, clinician licenses, staff access, devices, branding, and clinic settings.

Patient preparation

Guided intake and standalone forms bring patient history and supporting information into the encounter before clinical review.

From review to follow-through

Intake and forms → consult gap review → Save & Lock and snapshot → reviewed patient materials → confirmed delivery → staff orders and scheduling → snapshot-based follow-up.

When Patient Summary is selected, its approval covers the other selected handouts. Approval and delivery remain separate, visible steps.

RootQ capabilities

What RootQ can do

RootQ supports the clinical reasoning work required to turn a complex post-viral history into an organized, explainable, clinician-reviewed care plan.

Collect an adaptive patient history

Questions adapt to the patient’s symptoms, triggers, timing, and prior answers.

Organize complex clinical patterns

Structures symptoms, triggers, timing, and related findings into a coherent clinical picture.

Produce a structured clinical phenotype

Transforms collected information into a clinician-ready phenotype for review.

Apply deterministic clinical rules

Uses explicit, traceable rules rather than generative AI or opaque machine-learning reasoning.

Explain how recommendations were reached

Connects recommendations to the information and rules that produced them.

Keep the clinician in control

Recommendations, documentation, and patient materials require clinician review and approval.

Work alongside the medical record

RootQ does not replace the EMR. It produces clinician-reviewed output that can be downloaded as a PDF for manual upload or automatically uploaded to the correct patient chart through the athenahealth integration.

RootQ pricing

Choose monthly or annual clinician-seat pricing.

RootQ starts with one clinician seat. At least one clinician seat must be purchased for each clinic.

Monthly

$495 per clinician seat

Billed monthly. Add clinician seats as your clinic grows.

A minimum of one clinician seat is required per clinic. Purchasing Athena integration requires a 12-month subscription commitment, including when billed monthly. Review billing terms and clinic authorization steps.

The workflow

From complex intake to structured, actionable care.

RootQ connects assessment, clinical decision support, and patient communication while keeping clinicians in control.

01

Assessment & phenotyping

Transforms intake findings into an organized clinical phenotype, including mechanisms, clinical buckets, subtypes, and supporting findings.

02

Clinical recommendations

Connects identified mechanisms to clinician-ready next steps, treatment options, sequencing, and safety logic.

03

Patient handouts

Creates individualized instructions and education derived from the clinician's selected plan.

Connected where it matters

Designed to participate in the clinical workflow.

RootQ can connect approved intake documents, clinical summaries, and supporting materials with established systems.

04

athenahealth integration

Supports established EHR workflows for approved documents and clinical materials.

05

VisitRoom connectivity

Connects assessment and decision support with the virtual-care and transcription workflow.

06

Clinician control

Clinicians can edit, approve, or decline outputs before they enter patient care.
