We know that creating comprehensive and customized supplement plans for your patients can be time-consuming and overwhelming, especially when you’re consolidating and analyzing patient data from multiple sources. That’s why we built our latest clinical decision support tool — a plan-writing assistant that generates truly customized plans in seconds, while ensuring the provider still maintains total clinical control.
What’s new
This new AI-powered workflow helps you write more customized and evidence-based plans, faster. By consolidating patient data from across the Fullscript platform — including lab results (U.S. only), currently taking medications and supplements, as well as demographic information — the plan-writing assistant analyzes the clinical context, allows you to add additional inputs, and then provides tailored ingredient recommendations and product suggestions.
Whether you’re a seasoned integrative practitioner or relatively new to whole-person care, Fullscript’s plan-writing assistant helps you streamline your workflow, address depletions and avoid contraindications, analyze diagnostic data, and make evidence-based ingredient decisions that take available patient data points into account.
How it works
Step 1- Consolidate patient details: You’ll be prompted to assess and add to the patient’s information within five categories:
- Health areas: Add health areas and the assistant will use this to inform ingredient suggestions.
- Diagnostics (U.S. only): Review recent lab results from patients. You can receive ingredient recommendations based on your selected lab markers.
- Medications: See any medications your patients have added to their currently taking, using their mobile app. You can also input medications for the patient. This helps identify ingredients that are needed from possible depletions & ensure newly recommended ingredients are not contraindicated with those medications.
- Supplements: See any supplements your patients have added to their currently taking.
- Demographics: View any demographic information on Fullscript there might be about the patient, including sex and age. This will help the assistant refine and tailor ingredient and product recommendations.
Step 2 – Review and refine customized ingredient suggestions: After you’ve submitted the patient data, the assistant will analyze all of it together. Using the latest clinical evidence, vetted by Fullscript’s Medical Advisory Team, you’ll receive a breakdown of ingredients and dosing that addresses the patient’s unique needs identified.
You can add or remove ingredient suggestions, manually adjust the dosage, and review the ingredient evidence behind each suggestion.
Step 3 – it helps you quickly select the best products: After you’ve confirmed the ingredient recommendations, the assistant will surface products that, together, best match the selected ingredients and dosages. It will prioritize products that your patient is currently taking. You can review the products, compare and select from other similar products, or choose alternatives before sending the plan. While this tool speeds up the decision-making process, you maintain full clinical control over the patient’s care.
Why you’ll love it
- Save Time: The plan-writing assistant quickly connects complex data points, helping you create personalized plans faster than ever. Hundreds of thousands of patients are managing supplements and medications in the Fullscript app, powering this workflow and saving you (or your staff) valuable appointment and pre-appointment time. Plus, you can stop toggling between tabs to see lab results from various companies, check depletion tools, or refer to research.
- Confidence in Recommendations: Because this tool was built in close collaboration with Fullscript’s Medical Advisory Team, you can be assured that suggestions are ingredient-led, and are backed by the latest research. The tool will help you spot lab markers outside of optimal ranges, identify depletions, and avoid possible contraindications.
- Better Patient Outcomes: The more customized your plan, the higher the chance that your patient will stick with it and see better outcomes. Encourage patients to use the mobile app to keep their currently taking up-to-date, and to more easily place orders. The mobile app increases patient adherence by 40% compared to the web.
Did you know? Plans that are optimized with tools that surface Fullscript product suggestions see, on average, a 31% increase in second orders compared to plans that don’t leverage these decision support insights*

The bottom line
The new plan-writing assistant is a great way to work faster, while preserving the level of customized care you’re used to delivering. And, for practitioners who are new to integrative medicine, it helps you write data-driven and evidence-backed plans with greater confidence. The consolidation of patient data paired with automation and clinical evidence means that providers can write effective and personalized plans for their patients — without adding more time to their day.
