One of the great joys of being a DPC doc is being able to spend as much time with your patients as you need. And sometimes, these encounters can go on for quite some time. To help you document these longer appointments, we’ve introduced artificial intelligence to improve our existing Audio Transcripts feature.

The upgraded version of Audio Transcripts uses AI to support contexts 10 times larger than the current limits, meaning even the most extensive patient sessions can be transcribed and converted into SOAP notes, summaries, or diagnosis suggestions in seconds. What once took hours can now be demolished in a few clicks.

From routine check-ups to hours-long patient encounters, you can now efficiently document and communicate patient information of all lengths and complexities.

The best part? You don’t have to do anything. Simply upload the audio file using your phone’s Voice Memo app (or WhatsApp, iMessage, or whatever recording app you prefer) and Atlas.md’s AI will transcribe it automatically, crushing even more administrative busywork so you can focus on your patients.

For a more in-depth look at how this works, check out our support article. And if you have any questions about AI Audio Transcripts please don’t hesitate to reach out at support@atlas.md.

Whether generating referrals or contacting patients, a certain amount of correspondence is part and parcel of your day-to-day as a doctor. While there are many ways you can already do this in Atlas.md, today we’re rolling out improvements that make it easier to send email attachments to third parties directly from the EMR, where all your patient information lives.

These improvements allow you to send attachments not only to patients, but to anyone, including other doctors, specialists, imaging labs, and more. This makes it even simpler to share important documents and files and keep a record of it.

When sending attachments from a patient’s chart, you’ll now have the option to change the recipient from the default patient. You can do this manually if the recipient’s email address isn’t in the system. But if their information is in your contact list, Atlas.md’s autocompleter will find it for you.

This makes moving attachments and sending documents much faster, streamlining communication and saving you tons of time in the process.

For more details on how this works, check out our support article on the subject.

Have you ever been sent important information via email, sworn that you didn’t receive it, only to find that exact email lurking in the depths of your inbox, unread?

This happens to everyone – including your patients.

To account for this all-too-human problem, we’ve made some improvements to our self-scheduling feature.

Currently, you can easily send your patients a link to self-schedule from Atlas.md using email, but now you can also do it via SMS.

This means if your patient is someone who doesn’t check their email regularly, you can send invitations to self-schedule appointments directly to their phone. This not only gives you greater patient reach and engagement, but it saves you even more time by reducing the admin required to schedule consultations.

You can find out more about how this feature works in our support article on the subject.

In February we rolled out two time-saving, chart-wide AI features: AI Referrals and Chart Summaries. Today we’re launching enhanced versions of both features that will deliver even more valuable results.

Our AI Chart Summaries feature is now more efficient and detailed. We’ve improved it to give you a quick overview paragraph at the top of each summary, highlighting the most important information. Below this, you’ll find more detailed sections about your patient’s history.

This update is great for pre-appointment recaps, showing you the key points before providing more in-depth details. The feature also now reads twice as much information from the patient’s chart, going further back in time for a better, more detailed summary.

We also made improvements to AI Referrals. Now, it can read twice as much information from a patient’s chart to provide a more detailed referral. It can also analyze information that might be buried deep in a patient’s chart so that nothing important gets overlooked.

On top of this, it also takes into account the specific specialty you’ve selected to ensure that the referral is highly relevant to the specialist’s field.

For a more detailed look at how these improved features work, check out our support articles on AI Referrals and AI Chart Summaries.

Streamlined Enrollment Billing improves the enrollment process by letting you bill all new enrollees simultaneously when accepting them as patients.

It gives you the option to charge subscriptions (either the full amount or a prorated amount for part of the month) and collect payments immediately – this also includes any outstanding enrollment fees.

While you can currently do this manually, it requires going through many different pages and dozens of clicks for each new patient. The improved enrollment process lets you bill all newly enrolled patients simultaneously with just a couple of clicks.

This feature also gives you the ability to prorate subscription billing amounts for new clinics migrating to Atlas.md. This gives you much more flexibility if you want to batch-prorate subscriptions, especially if you’re switching to Atlas.md mid-month, for example.

Patient correspondence, sick leave letters, appointment cancellations – being a doctor involves creating a lot of formal documentation.

Letterheads takes the pain out of this process by letting you generate documents with just a few clicks.

Simply choose the title and content for the body of the Letterhead and Atlas.md will generate a PDF that can be printed, emailed, or sent with whatever method you prefer.

The PDF includes a letterhead with your clinic’s and patient’s information, your clinic’s logo, and the date the document was created.

This feature also works seamlessly with the macro-autocompleter. This means you can create templates of documents ahead of time and use a macro to generate, let’s say, a sick leave letter for a patient.

Check out our support article for more details.

Our recent AI updates have been focused on individual features such as AI Summaries and Diagnosis Suggestions. Today, we’re excited to roll out two new chart-wide, time-saving AI features: AI Referral Generation and Chart Summaries.

AI Referrals puts together a specialist referral with just a few clicks – you just need to enter the specialist concerned and the primary concern of the referral.

Atlas.md will analyze your patient’s chart and generate a referral that includes the patient’s basic information, medical history, lab results, medications, reason for referral, and more. Once you’re happy with the referral (you can edit it before you send it off), you can fax it directly to a specialist or send it via another method.

Chart Summaries does exactly what it says on the tin – summarizes a patient’s entire chart into a note that you can either send off or add directly to your patient’s chart for later review.

You can find both of these features by clicking the new AI button on your patient’s chart next to the familiar gear icon.

For a more in-depth look at how both features can save you huge amounts of time, check out our support articles on AI Referrals and Chart Summaries.

It’s sometimes tough to deal with the January blues – the holiday season’s over, there’s still a few more months of winter ahead, and everyone’s back to work. To make things a little better and work a little easier, we’re happy to announce a new feature – AI Diagnosis Suggestions.

Hot on the heels of other AI releases (AI Summaries and SOAP Notes, and AI Macros), this feature recommends possible diagnoses based on the information available in your patient’s chart.

By analyzing recent notes and looking for relevant keywords and ICD-10 codes, this feature identifies and suggests a list of the most likely diagnoses for your patient.

Now, instead of having to trawl through your notes after a patient consultation to determine a diagnosis, Atlas.md saves you time by doing the heavy lifting for you.

When adding a new diagnosis, you’ll notice a new heading called Suggestions. Select one of the possible diagnoses from the list and it’ll get added to your patient’s chart.

One click. Huge amounts of time saved. It’s that easy!

If you have any questions about AI Diagnosis Suggestions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch at support@atlas.md.

We’re always looking for ways to not only connect you with patients but also maximize your income streams. Today we’ve got a whole list of updates that do both!

To start, Subscription Prorating lets you charge a patient for the remaining days of the month in which their subscription starts. So if a patient signs up mid-way through January, you can charge them for the remainder of that month, rather than waiting until February.

Next, let’s talk about prescription management. Atlas.md’s auto-completer is really helpful when suggesting and remembering your usage instructions and reasons for prescribing medication. But sometimes it can remember a little bit too much. Now, if you don’t want those suggestions on the auto-completer list when dispensing medication, you can simply delete them by clicking the small X next to each item.

On the report management side, we’ve updated our date picker so that selecting date ranges from months or years ago can be done quickly and easily. So if you need to pull a custom report from 2015, you can do so in one or two clicks by selecting the month and year dropdown menus.

Finally, remember fixed-rate billing plans? Well, now instead of having to create entirely new plans when you want to change something, you can edit existing ones. It’s important to note that when you do this, it’ll affect all existing subscriptions under that plan.

Saving time and increasing your bottom line? That’s what Atlas.md is for.
