Recommended agent uses

3 workflows you could delegate to AI

1

Build rehabilitation plan from intake

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to combine intake notes, medical and educational records, referral details, and your meeting notes with the client into a draft rehabilitation plan. It can organize goals, services needed, and the paperwork needed for review so you can focus on the client conversation and approval.

Where you stay involved

You review the draft, decide whether it fits the client’s abilities and goals, and make the final plan. You also handle any unclear eligibility or service questions before anything moves forward.

Review level: High

2

Arrange evaluations and summarize results

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to schedule requested evaluations, gather the returned reports, and compare them with the client’s file so you have a clear summary for the next planning meeting. The agent can also note any missing reports or conflicting findings before you update the case.

Where you stay involved

You decide which evaluations are needed, review the results, and determine what they mean for the rehabilitation plan. You refer urgent risk or confusing clinical findings to the right licensed professional.

Review level: High

3

Coordinate accommodation and barrier fixes

How you could use an agent

Use an agent to track barriers mentioned in client notes, such as transportation problems, access issues, or schedule conflicts, and prepare a follow-up list of possible supports or workarounds. It can also remind you about job coaching or device requests that still need attention.

Where you stay involved

You decide which support fits the client, contact the relevant people or services, and follow through on placement issues. You handle any accommodation question that needs a medical, legal, or employer-policy judgment.

Review level: Medium

O*NET 31.0 · methodology 3.3.0. Every workflow passes an action-level physical-execution and protected human-and-veterinary clinical-action gate. Documentation workflows must own a complete digital loop and use digital task evidence only; support-only workflows are disclosed separately and excluded from scoring. Artistic, editorial, normative, and policy-dependent work receives a transparent human-judgment constraint. National ranking within 923 scored O*NET occupations under methodology 3.3.0.
