What is the PracticeQ Integration?
The PracticeQ integration embeds Heidi Health’s powerful AI medical scribe directly into patient charts in your EHR. The scribe captures patient consultations in real time, automatically producing structured notes and documents that populate PracticeQ with the push of a button.
Whatever your specialty or practice area, the Heidi and PracticeQ integration significantly reduces administrative burden, giving you more time to focus on patient care and growing your practice.
Why Healthcare Professionals Love the PracticeQ Integration with Heidi
PracticeQ’s integration with Heidi adds a powerful AI medical scribe to your existing workflow, so you can spend less time on notes without changing your practice style or processes. Just like PracticeQ, Heidi is infinitely customizable, enabling automated documentation to still sound exactly like you.
Here’s an overview of the key reasons healthcare professionals love the Heidi and PracticeQ integration:
Faster Notes with No Compromises
Most efficiency strategies for clinical documentation include some sort of tradeoff, such as using structured templates that don’t match your style, writing notes in shorthand that’s difficult to understand, or using outsourced dictation that adds another step to your workflow.
With Heidi, most clinicians save 1-2 hours per day on notes while also reporting improvements in documentation quality and consistency.
Focus On What You Do Best
The drudgery of endless documentation can dampen the spark and passion that led you to get into healthcare in the first place. With the PracticeQ integration, you can focus entirely on the meaningful and rewarding aspects of delivering care.
Maintain eye contact with your patient throughout the entire encounter, comfortably knowing that Heidi has all your documentation needs covered.
Time and Space for Growth
The Heidi and PracticeQ integration helps you regain control of your time, empowering you to direct resources previously lost to admin to more productive tasks. Some providers choose to use their newfound freedom to see more patients.
Others lean into professional development or strategic business growth. While many choose to unplug at the end of the day and focus on something outside of work.
World-Class Security
Heidi meets or exceeds global healthcare data security standards, including HIPAA, PIPEDA, GDPR, and Australian Privacy Principles (APP). Patient data is encrypted at rest and in transit, with zero audio storage and strict access controls.
Combined with PracticeQ’s robust security and HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, you can trust that your practice complies with regulatory requirements while benefiting from cutting-edge AI technology.
Real-time notes, real-world impact: In one of the world’s largest clinical rollouts of ambient AI, Heidi has been proven to:
- Reduce time spent per consult on documentation by 51%
- Increase note quality satisfaction by 38%
- Decrease documentation-related stress by 58%
- Boost confidence in documentation accuracy by 33%
- Reduce after-hours admin by 61%
- Improve work-life balance satisfaction by 45%
Clinicians consistently tell us it’s not just about eliminating administrative burden and minimizing cognitive load, but it’s also about being more present with their patients and reclaiming their time.
5-Step Guide to Using the PracticeQ Integration
The PracticeQ integration provides access to Heidi’s advanced AI medical scribe through a small yet powerful widget that’s directly accessible within your EHR. Here’s a simple five-step guide that explains how the Heidi and PracticeQ integration works:
Step 1: Launch Heidi in PracticeQ
Open a patient chart in PracticeQ and click the Heidi button at the top right. Log in to Heidi if you already have an account. Otherwise, follow the prompts to activate a 30-day free trial (no credit card required). After completing this step, the Heidi widget will open in the lower right of your screen.
Step 2: Choose Your Templates
The Heidi integration works alongside your existing templates in PracticeQ (here are more detailed instructions on using PQ templates with Heidi). You can also utilize Heidi’s Template Community, which has hundreds of customizable, specialty-appropriate templates for behavioral health, primary care, chiropractic, and more.
Patient history and background can be added to the Context field of Heidi at any time, which will be included in notes and documents as appropriate.
Step 3: Start Transcribing
Press “Start” in the widget at the beginning of the session, enabling Heidi to silently capture your entire consultation. When the appointment is finished press “Stop.” Heidi will automatically generate a note, following the style and formatting specified in any templates that are applied.
Step 4: Review Your Note
Check Heidi’s note for accuracy and completeness. Edits or additions are easily made via typing or cursor-based dictation. You can also Ask Heidi to adjust a section of the note or expand on specific information. When you’re satisfied with the note, use the Magic Paste function to seamlessly transfer it to PracticeQ.
Step 5: Create Additional Documents
If required, you can prompt Heidi to generate a referral letter, patient summary, intake assessment, sick note, or insurance forms. Documents draw on information from the core note and Context (if added). You can instantly transfer documents to PracticeQ or email them directly from Heidi.
