aurii drafts the consult note and the letters from what was said out loud. Anything not spoken is typed into the draft before it is signed.
Before the first patient
The practice's note and letter templates are in place before the first appointment.
Consent to capture is asked for before capture starts, as a sentence at the start of the consult, a waiting room notice, or both. Wording, and what to do when a patient declines.
The consult
The draft holds what was said out loud. A blood pressure reading taken without comment, a rash examined in silence or a number read off the practice's machine is spoken during the consult or typed into the draft afterwards.
Where one appointment carries several problems, the draft separates them by problem, with history, examination, assessment and plan under each.
aurii does not diagnose, triage or grade severity. General practice attendance items are time-tiered and carry their own descriptors, so what the note has to show for a long consult follows the item claimed. Current descriptors sit on MBS Online.
Certificates and letters
A work certificate is drafted in the practice's certificate template, and the clinician sets the dates and the capacity it states. The template set also carries the family update and the results notification.
A referral letter is drafted from the consult in the letter template. Signed letters go out over Medical Objects. Integrations. A rejected letter carries the rejection on its own record and can be sent again once it has been corrected. Fax and HealthLink are not delivery channels aurii offers.
Results between patients
A result a note or letter has to quote is uploaded into aurii, the values are extracted, and the clinician confirms what was read before it reaches the draft. Uploading does not file the result anywhere else.
Filing, billing and signing
aurii does not write into Best Practice, MedicalDirector or Genie, so the signed consult note is filed in the patient record by the practice. Prescriptions are written in the practice software; aurii does not issue them.
Billing items are captured at the bedside against the episode, for your practice to claim. Billing. Until it clears, the appointment is billed in the practice software.
Reviewing a draft in the gap between patients keeps the note contemporaneous, which is what Ahpra's record-keeping expectations assume. Signing stamps the note with the signing clinician and the time.
aurii in a general practice list
aurii captures the consult with the patient's consent and drafts the consult note and the letters in the practice's templates. The clinician reviews and signs each one. aurii does not write into practice software, and there is no two-way synchronisation.
No. There is no two-way synchronisation with practice software, so the signed note is filed in the patient record by the practice. Integrations.
The consult goes ahead and the note is typed the way it was typed before. Consent is asked for before capture starts, and wording is set out in consent to record a consultation.
aurii drafts from what was discussed in the consult, in the practice's templates. The clinician confirms the clinical content, the goals and any program requirement before signing.
