Occupational Therapy
OT reports by telehealth when the decision can be supported through interview and documentation.
Telehealth OT Reports are most relevant when the report can be built from interview, clinical reasoning, existing documentation and clear functional goals.
- Talk through whether online support is the right fit first
- Technology, support person and clinical context are checked before the next step
- Avanti confirms when in-person care is the better option

Who this is for
Adults, families and referrers who need OT report input for funding, planning or review decisions where online assessment may fit.
Avanti confirms whether it is the right service, which funding may apply, where sessions can happen, and what to do next.
- Report purpose and funding decision clarified up front
- Existing reports and support information reviewed early
- Face-to-face recommended where measurements, home access or equipment trials are central
Telehealth suitability
Online OT is useful when the task fits the setting.
Avanti's adult OT guidance is deliberately practical: telehealth can be a strong option for assessments, reports and some ongoing therapy, but it should not be used to shortcut work that needs the clinician in the home or with equipment in front of them.
Often suitable online
Assessments, reports and therapy planning
Functional Capacity Assessments, report writing, plan-review documentation and ongoing therapy can often be considered for telehealth when the referral context, documents and goals fit.
Usually better face to face
Home modifications and equipment trials
Home modifications and equipment prescription usually need face-to-face assessment where possible so the environment can be measured, safety checked and equipment trialled properly.
For report enquiries, Avanti checks the report purpose, funding decision, current documents and whether direct observation is needed.
What to send first
One message, fewer phone calls - what to include.
Include the report purpose, funding context, deadlines, existing reports and whether the report involves equipment, home access or ongoing therapy goals.
- Who requested the report and what decision it supports
- Funding type, deadlines and existing documents
- Whether equipment, home access or daily-living goals are part of the report
Questions
Telehealth OT Reports questions
Functional reports, funding justification and plan-review reports may be suitable when the clinician can gather enough information online and from existing documents.
No. The enquiry is used to check whether the report request, funding context and delivery setting are suitable before the next step is confirmed.
Start with an enquiry. Avanti will confirm the service, location, funding option, and whether an appointment or class is the right next step. Asking doesn't commit you to anything.
Many people use NDIS, a Medicare referral, DVA, WorkCover, aged-care funding or private funds. Which applies depends on your situation and the service - tell Avanti what you have and they'll confirm it with you.
Fees depend on the service and your funding pathway. Tell Avanti your funding type in the enquiry and they'll explain the relevant costs up front.
Next step
