QuickScreen: The 2-Minute Exam That Helps Patients Commit to Care

In today’s healthcare environment, speed and clarity matter—both for patient education and business growth. Whether you’re a chiropractor or physical therapist, finding ways to engage patients, improve compliance, and even generate additional cash revenue can make all the difference.

That’s where JTECH Medical™ Northstar QuickScreen comes in. This fast, objective assessment captures a patient’s range of motion and strength imbalances in just 1-2 minutes, providing instant visual feedback that supports clinical recommendations and helps convert cash-paying patients.

Let’s dive into why QuickScreen is a must-have tool for both patient engagement and practice growth.

🚀 What Makes QuickScreen So Powerful?

🔹 Time-Efficient & Easy to Perform – In under two minutes, QuickScreen evaluates a patient’s range of motion, strength imbalances, and grip strength. It’s fast, effective, and seamlessly integrates into patient assessments.

🔹 Perfect for Cash-Pay Services – Providers can charge cash patients $35 (or more) for a QuickScreen exam, turning a simple test into a revenue-generating tool.

🔹 Seamless Integration with Northstar Software – Every QuickScreen exam is saved as a regular patient exam file, making it easy to track progress, perform follow-ups, and print out professional narrative progress reports identical to standard Northstar reports.
