Looking for a Nookal alternative?

nookal is popular with physiotherapy and rehab providers, but it does not include secure clinical messaging and charges per Medicare claim. coreplus includes secure messaging, built in claiming and comprehensive reporting, making it easier to coordinate care and manage daily operations across multiple practitioners.

Why practices choose coreplus over Nookal?

Reason 1

Secure messaging included for connected care

coreplus provides HealthLink messaging so clinics can exchange clinical documents securely and efficiently. nookal does not support secure messaging, forcing clinics to rely on manual email and phone communication for referrals.

Reason 2

No Medicare claiming fees

coreplus includes unlimited Medicare and DVA claiming without transaction charges. nookal applies approximately $0.30 AUD per claim, which increases costs for clinics processing regular Medicare activity e.g. at 100 invoice per month, per practitioner, you would pay $30 per practitioner/ month on top of the nookal monthly fee.

Reason 3

Better value for multi practitioner clinics

coreplus plan pricing overall does not included additional costs for integrations with medicare.  Compared to nookal, this means you’re saving $0.30/ Invoice for all medicare claims submitted.

Reason 4

Flexible clinical notes and editing

coreplus supports draft notes and controlled editing while maintaining audit history. nookal locks completed notes, which can make correcting minor errors or updating details more difficult for clinicians.

Reason 5

More comprehensive reporting tools

coreplus offers broader clinic, financial and operational reporting, giving teams clearer insight. nookal reports are more limited and less flexible for detailed analysis.
