Rename it any time | A photo of a paper referral is fine — flat, in good light, all four corners in frame. Images show as thumbnails; PDFs and Word files show as a page with the file type on it. ## Choosing a type Every document is filed under a type, which makes it findable later. | | | | ------------------ | ---------------------------------------------------- | | **Referral** | From a GP or another clinician | | **Care plan** | A Mental Health Treatment Plan, NDIS plan or similar | | **Report** | An assessment or discharge summary | | **Signed form** | Consent, or anything you've signed | | **Worksheet** | Something to work through | | **Something else** | Everything that isn't one of the above | Referrals and care plans can carry an expiry date; the other types have no expiry field. Set it and the document shows **Expires** with the date, then **Expired** once it passes. Nothing stops working when a referral lapses, and Open Therapy doesn't check your paperwork before you book. Whether a lapse affects a rebate is between you, your GP and Medicare — see [Rebates and funding](/clients/rebates-and-funding). ## Who can see a document You, and the therapists you're currently seeing on Open Therapy. There's no per-document switch: filing a document here **is** sharing it with your treating therapists. Don't upload what you don't want a therapist to read. | | | | ------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------ | | You | Everything in your documents, always | | A therapist you're seeing | Everything in your documents | | A therapist you only messaged, or haven't booked | Nothing | | Another client | Nothing | Files are stored privately, not at a public web address, and a download link is generated when you ask for one. Uploading doesn't notify anyone, so [message them](/clients/messages) if a therapist needs to read something before your session. You are told when a therapist shares a document with you. ## Documents are not receipts | | | | ------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Documents** | Files you or your therapist upload. Clinical paperwork — referrals, plans, reports, worksheets | | **Receipts and invoices** | Generated by Open Therapy when a session is paid for. One per settled session, with a reference you can quote | Don't upload receipts here. They already exist on your billing page — see [Invoices and receipts](/clients/invoices-and-receipts). ## Changing or removing one Rename a document, change its type, or set and clear an expiry date from the menu on it. There's no delete button. If you uploaded something by mistake, write to [support@opentherapy.app](mailto:support@opentherapy.app) with the file name. A document your therapist has already read may form part of the clinical record they're required to keep — [Safety and privacy](/safety-and-privacy) explains what that means.
