Make your own document type

A document type is your own way of writing a document: your sections, in your order, in your words. Once it is active, you pick it like any other document, after a VoiceIt or in a patient's documents.

Before you start

• Have 1 to 5 reports you wrote yourself and are happy with, as PDF or Word files. Reports of the same kind (only consultation reports, say) give the best result.
• Use files from your practice software or word processor, not scans: a scan has too little text to learn from.
• If you can't find Studio in the sidebar, it isn't switched on for your clinic yet. Ask us.

Steps

1Add your reports

In the sidebar, select Studio, then Create from your reports. Drop your reports on the page, or select choose files. When they show Ready, select Read my reports.

2Wait for the reading

Reading takes about a minute. You don't have to wait on the page: select Go to Document types and carry on. You get a notification when it is done, and the document type shows Ready to check in your list.

3Check how you write

Select Check it. The page shows what was learned: your sections in their order, your tone, what you usually record and the sentences you always use. Under I assumed…, check the guesses: if one is wrong, select That's not right next to it and say what is true instead.

Give it a name under Name. Under Where do you want to use it?, pick VoiceIt, Patient documents, or both. Then select Try it.

4Try it on a patient

Pick one of your patients from the last 30 days and select Try it. After about 20 seconds you see the document it wrote from that patient's recording and notes. It is a try-out: nothing is saved to the patient.

5Activate it

Happy with the result? Select Activate. Not quite? Select Change it first: see Change a document type.

What you've got now

Your document type is listed as Active in the Studio. When you record a VoiceIt or create a document for a patient, you find it under Yours. Only you see it until you share it with your clinic.
