Review of Clinical Notes AI: Mental health progress note generator

[@christinedecarolis4739]

Love your content! Thank you for being an anchor in this new sea of options 🙂

I am trying his one out, and it's simple and straightforward, but I like to use my text input to pour into a note, as I would do with regular AI. I don't do well dictating, as I think while I write, and I simply do not feel comfortable recording a session no matter how many times someone tells me it's HIPAA compliant. Which one do you recommend in this case? Maybe I do have to get more relaxed with just skipping around during my dictation, as you say here, and feel free to circle back several times to things I forgot ;-) You don't have to email them for the BAA. It's under your profile. I am trying several formats and different things to include or exclude, and find this quite useful. Also, it's the least expensive for basic membership compared to others.

Yes, using the one that best suits you is always the best choice! Glad you're liking Clinical Notes AI :)

[@keithcross6943]

Thank you for this overview!! Very helpful! I just did a demo with them and they have added the customization feature allowing the clinician to limit the length of the casenotes and they are going to add the ability to integrate with Simple Practice "soon."

[@wendysimpson4281]

Awesome! I had a feeling Simple Practice would add a feature like this soon, wonder how long til this occurs? 😊

Great video - even though they don't store the transcript, do they store the outputs and use them for training? Are they using Open AI to generate the notes (some companies aren't clear about what AI system they are using).

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

These are great questions! I recommend asking them directly, and I’ll do the same. My understanding is most companies are using the same base AI system and then adjusting it.

[@ClinicalNotesAI]

@@MaelisaMcCaffrey Great question indeed! We're using multiple fine tuned and trained LLM's in a HIPAA compliant environment depending on the selections chosen. We leverage the transcripts by deidentifying the data from the clinician and removing any PHI but we save the choices by the clinician of the note types for "human in the loop" categorization to continue to improve and train our systems.

[@riciarae4131]

@@MaelisaMcCaffrey I think the base AI system is GPT (we really need greater transparency). Such new and evolving technology and not enough regulation :( oh well.

@@ClinicalNotesAI Hi. I'm looking into all of the great and wonderfully informative options Maelisa is presenting for our AI note taking needs, and have a follow up question for you at Clinical Notes AI... I know you are HIPAA compliant, but does your company have a dedicated cyber security professional on staff with the background needed for this type of app to secure the information we provide? It is of the upmost importance that I and my clients feel secure. Thank you.

[@AndreaEdgmon]

Considering ChatGPT is not HIPAA compliant I wonder if it is ok to use if we leave out identifying info?

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

Check out my video specific to ChatGPT - it’s okay for generic stuff like creating a template to use with clients, but not okay for using with individual clients. It is impossible to “de identify” something enough that it is both confidential and useful.

[@deborahd2750]

Hey! I'm wondering if you are going to reciew other platforms like Blueprint. Thank you!

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

@@deborahd2750 yes! I have them in the line up for next month 😊

[@mariaszandrach9348]

A small note :)) If the voice is transcribed that means that the tool does record the audio. It is technologically not possible for it to transcribe without recording. So now the question is if they delete or store recordings :)

[@effentjes]

They delete the dictation if you don't choose to keep it within 24 hours.

[@stephaniequinn7749]

Our ambient technology captures the conversation during your session, creating and formatting the note for you. The audio is not saved. You cannot listen to a session recording; it is only used for transcription.

[@hannahbarthold1129]

So, is something being HIPPA compliant the same as being approved by your board? If not, how do we find out whether it is approved by the board?

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

HIPAA is a law and legal standard in the U.S. Your licensing board controls quality standards for professionals and they don’t usually “approve” or recommend specific services. Instead they would regulate a professional who, as an example, used a technology service inappropriately which led to some kind of client harm.

[@AMitra61853]

Helpful review but I clicked on the link for the sample notes and it was never sent to me (checked spam and promotions folders)😕

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

@@AMitra61853 sorry about that! Email [e-mail] and we’ll make sure you are set up 😊

[@KimberlyLuchini]

Does Clinical Notes AI work with telehealth sessions?

[@MaelisaMcCaffrey]

At this point I think it still has to listen, so you’d need to not use headphones

[@stephaniequinn7749]

We are optimized for telehealth! We would love to demo that for you!

[@michelesmith6302]

No. You have to use another app to record the session and then it gives you the option to upload the recording to produce a progress note. Freed Ai is best for progress notes.

[@stephaniequinn7749]

@@michelesmith6302 Our ambient technology captures the conversation, creates and formats the note based on your specifications, and does not save any audio whatsoever. It will also offer key insights and make other diagnostic suggestions based on your session. We would love to demo the platform for you!
