SUMMARY

Dr. Tina Chu walks through editing her custom pediatric progress note template in Doximity Scribe to better fit well child checks.

She adds a separate Well Child Check section with standard subsections by age, converts the HPI problem list into a numbered "additional concerns" section, and removes weight, height, and head circumference percentiles from the vitals section.

She also teaches the template to correctly spell formula names it commonly misspells, and adds frequently referenced specialist and provider names for the AI to include.

After saving the edits, she reruns an existing note through the updated template to confirm the changes took effect, then sets it as her default for future well child visits.

TRANSCRIPT

Hi, this is Dr. Chu, and today I'm gonna go over how to update your custom template from the Doximity Scribe app. I did a well child check for this patient and there are a couple edits that I wanted to make to my default template note. This note was made by the custom progress note default that Doximity provided, and it was great for an overview, but for wellness checks, I wanted to have different standard subsections based on common things that we discussed within the wellness check. You go over to this left side of the screen where it says template library.

You can click that. On the custom pediatrics progress note, I can go ahead and click the little pencil button and I'm able to edit the template.

Here is the custom pediatrics progress note that is defaulted within the Doximity Scribe app. It's already extremely thorough with a lot of great information and guidelines for the AI Scribe to use when making a note. I wanted to include separate subsections based on a Well Child Check. Please include the Well Child Check as a separate section with standard subsections based on age underneath the main heading.

And then I also wanted to have additional problems listed in a numbered list. And so previously it said separate the HPI into separate problems into a numbered list. I could just say create an additional concerns section with separate problems into a numbered list. Here it says vitals, then here I can write, please do not include information about weight percentiles, height percentiles, and head circumference percentiles.

And then lastly, a common thing that I like to edit in my templates is a lot of times there might be words that I use frequently. For pediatrics, we talk about different formulas frequently, so, um, sometimes the AI doesn't spell it correctly, but if I put it into my custom note template after I catch that it was spelled incorrectly, then it can spell it correctly in the future.

Another helpful thing in this section would be to put different specialists or different providers' names on here that I refer to often, and I can also include those names in this last section. Up here I can title the note edited. I can say the and then I can also press save.

And so once this is done, I can then go back to my Scribe app and I can use my same existing note that I had before to test out if there were any improvements with those template edits. As you can see, it has made a lot of those edits already.

I wanted different standard subsections based on the patient's age, so they did have different sections as well as a tip, suppository guidance, and immunization information. This is great because for future notes, it saves me a lot of time. I can now use that note template for future notes.

I can also, when I'm creating a new recording, go ahead and make that note template my default template when I start recording in the future.
