Record the encounter

Review the AI draft
The app organizes the conversation into a progress note template, highlighting key updates and new findings.
Verify and finalize
Check the source context for accuracy, make any necessary edits, and paste the final note into your EHR.
Structuring an effective doctor progress note
A strong doctor progress note focuses on the interval change since the last visit. It must clearly delineate the Subjective (patient's current status and symptom updates), Objective (vital signs, physical exam findings, and new lab results), Assessment (the current status of the diagnosis), and Plan (medication changes, referrals, or follow-up timing). High-fidelity notes avoid repeating the entire history and instead highlight the evolution of the patient's condition.
Using Aduvera replaces the need to manually fill out a progress note template from memory. The AI scribe captures the nuance of the encounter and maps it directly into these structured sections. This allows the clinician to shift from 'writing' to 'editing,' focusing their energy on verifying the accuracy of the assessment and plan against the transcript-backed source context.
