Q09
AI Interview
Explore the gap between the patient's reported pain/functional difficulty and their sense of progress toward goals. If they reported low home-exercise adherence or specific barriers, probe concretely which exercises they skip, why, and whether pain during exercise is a factor versus time or motivation. If they report high adherence but low progress, probe whether the exercises feel matched to their goals or need to be adjusted. Anchor on specific recent sessions rather than general impressions.

What’s included
AI follow-ups
Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.
Attention checks
Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.
AI-drafted copy
Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.
Auto report
Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.
How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Goes beyond static pain/function ratings with an AI follow-up interview specifically designed to dig into what's really blocking progress, not just capture a score
- Combines a pain rating, a matrix of functional difficulty items, home exercise adherence tracking, and reasons for non-adherence in one flow rather than a single generic evaluation form
- Includes clinician-relevant clarity questions (how well the therapist explained the condition and exercises) alongside outcome and satisfaction/recommendation measures
- Opens and closes with clear chat messages framing the check-in and confirming responses go to the patient's care team, which builds trust and context missing from plain form fields
Jotform
Physical Therapy Evaluation Form TemplateA standard fillable form template for capturing physical therapy evaluation details, built on Jotform's drag-and-drop form builder. It's fielding-ready out of the box and easy to customize with their editor, but it's a static field-based form rather than a conversational or adaptive survey. No mechanism to probe deeper into a patient's specific barriers to progress.
What it does well
- Fielding-ready template usable immediately
- Easy drag-and-drop customization within Jotform's ecosystem
- Likely integrates with Jotform's broader form/e-signature/workflow tools
Where it falls short
- Static form fields only — no adaptive AI follow-up to explore why a patient's pain or function isn't improving
- No automated quality scoring of individual responses
- No voice AI interview option for patients who prefer speaking over typing
SurveySparrow
Physical Therapy Evaluation Form TemplateA conversational-style survey template aimed at healthcare use cases, which fits the same audience as this template. It offers a more engaging one-question-at-a-time format than a plain form, but its 'conversational' feel is templated and scripted rather than a true adaptive interview that reacts to what the patient says.
What it does well
- Conversational, one-at-a-time UI likely improves completion rates versus a dense form
- Positioned specifically for healthcare templates, suggesting relevant field types
- Fielding-ready template for quick deployment
Where it falls short
- No genuine adaptive AI questioning — flow is pre-scripted rather than dynamically probing individual answers
- No per-response automated quality scoring reported
- No published methodology for how follow-up questions (if any) are generated
Typeform
Physical Therapy Evaluation Form TemplateTypeform's well-known conversational form format applied to a physical therapy evaluation, offering a polished, mobile-friendly respondent experience. It's a strong fielding-ready template, but like other form builders it lacks true adaptive branching driven by an AI reading and reacting to open-ended answers in real time.
What it does well
- Polished, mobile-friendly conversational interface
- Fielding-ready template within a widely used survey platform
- Logic-based branching for basic conditional flows
Where it falls short
- No AI-driven follow-up interview that adapts based on the substance of a patient's answers
- No automated per-response quality scoring
- No voice AI interview or guided screen-share task option
