Latest Updates

What’s new, Crew? 🌟

We’re back with some exciting updates to make your workflow smoother and more efficient than ever!

Auto-SOAP Upgrades 🚀

We’ve been hard at work improving your Auto-SOAP experience:

Desktop Recording for Auto-SOAP Notes: Now you can seamlessly record your whole appointment with Auto-SOAP, from your desktop! Enabling new team workflows and greater flexibility.

Vitals Customisation Added: You asked, we delivered! The Vitals section is now available in your Auto-SOAP settings, making it possible to add custom default values and toggle on/off.

Better Copying: We’ve improved the “Copy All Note” button, giving you more empty spaces for a cleaner, more readable copy.

Cursor Focus: No more losing your spot! The note field will now keep your cursor right where you left it when saving.

Title Editing: Need more time to edit your Auto-SOAP note titles? We’ve got you covered in the web app.

Paragraph Flow: Paragraphs now flow more naturally, rather than looking like a list in sentence form.

More Info Captured: The Subjective section now picks up diet and previous medication details, and the Assessment section will now include a problem list and is less likely to generate as an empty section.

Bug Fixes: We’ve squashed the bug that occasionally left note segments stuck in processing when uploading on a poor network connection. We also tackled various formatting and spacing issues, so your Auto-SOAP results look better than ever.

AI Assistant Enhancements 🤖

Your trusty AI Assistant just got smarter:

Reduced Stuck Queries: We’ve fine-tuned the system to significantly reduce the chances of your assistant queries getting stuck in processing.

Desktop Dictation Boosts 🎙️

We’ve made some important tweaks to ensure your dictation is as accurate as possible:

Decimal Points: Now, when you dictate numbers, decimal points will be recognized and typed out correctly.

Bug Fixes: We’ve fixed the issue where a space would sneak in before a period when using the mobile mic and we’ve updated the language region selector to enable proper English-Canadian spelling.

As always, we’re committed to continuous improvement, so keep your feedback coming!

Until the next update!

Talkatoo Tips for Users

Our expert team has a few tips to help you excel in your documentation efforts.

1. Record Notes Immediately
   Instead of waiting until the end of the day, try to record your notes right after each patient visit. This small habit can save you time and improve the accuracy of your notes, ultimately giving you more hours back in your day.
2. Start with Key Information
   When beginning your dictation, always include the following essential details at the start of each note:
   • Patient’s full name (first and last)
   • Patient ID Number
   • Date of the visit (especially if it’s for a previous date)
3. Use SOAP Format
   Dictate using the SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan) format. Begin each section with clear headings to organize your findings effectively.
4. Default Setting
   If no observations are dictated for body systems, they will automatically default to “within normal limits.” If vitals are not mentioned, they will remain blank.
5. Single Patient Per Note
   Ensure that each note pertains to only one patient to maintain the accuracy and clarity of the records.
6. Optimizing Audio Quality
   For the best audio quality, hold the phone within 12 inches of your mouth while dictating. Remember that the microphone is typically located on the front of the phone.

Implementing these tips can really make your documentation process the cat’s pajamas — quicker, more precise, and more efficient.

Stay tuned—there’s more to come! We’re not kitten around when we say we’ve got some pawsitively exciting features in the works for future updates!

Thanks for tuning in!
