A patient can complete the Cydoc intake form on their own device (e.g. a smartphone) or on a clinic-supplied tablet.
Within the form, the patient first indicates their visit reasons (chief complaints), such as itchy skin, high cholesterol, joint pain, or heart failure. Each Cydoc intake form is then dynamically targeted to those specific chief complaints. Thus, a patient coming in for diabetes and high blood pressure will be shown totally different clinical questions than a patient coming in for headaches. We offer over 130 condition-specific questionnaires spanning family medicine, urgent care, obstetrics and gynecology, and subspecialties. At the moment, each patient is allowed to select up to 3 chief complaints. This limit ensures that the generated note remains concise.
After the patient finishes the Cydoc intake form, Cydoc's AI system transforms the Q&A into a focused HPI/subjective section. Generated notes are available through Cydoc's secure web portal. A nurse or MA can paste the Cydoc subjective section into your EHR with a single click, as a part of your existing intake process.
You receive the Cydoc generated note within your EHR before the visit starts, enabling a more efficient visit and less time spent writing notes.
Cydoc saves 10 minutes per patient visit, according to a family medicine physician currently using Cydoc.
We've also conducted a research study that had the same result: a time savings of 10 minutes per visit. For more details, you can access the research paper here.
The Cydoc generated note helps save time in two ways:
1. By saving time asking the patient questions, since several clinically relevant questions have already been asked;
2. By saving time on typing, because the HPI/subjective part of the note is already written.
Yes. Whether you use eCW, Epic, athenahealth, or another EHR - including custom-built EHRs - your practice can benefit from Cydoc's technology. Cydoc provides the generated note in our secure web portal. A nurse or MA can quickly copy and paste the Cydoc generated note from the web portal into the appropriate field of your EMR with a single click, using our convenient "Copy Note" button. The process takes fewer than 2 seconds as part of your existing patient check-in workflow. No lengthy integration steps are needed, and you can start using Cydoc the same day that you sign up. From the clinician's perspective, the generated note appears within the appropriate field of their EHR before the visit starts.
We're also currently working on bidirectional EHR integrations. If you'd like to request an integration with your EHR, please contact us.

Cydoc's intake form is automatically targeted to your patient's chief complaints.
Each chief complaint questionnaire is generated using Cydoc's proprietary AI technology. Cydoc uses medical reasoning to ask patients focused, relevant questions. The kinds of questions that are asked depend upon the chief complaint. For example, the diabetes questionnaire asks patients about blood sugar monitoring and whether they've had a foot exam, eye exam, or dental exam, while the upper respiratory infection questionnaire ("cold," in the patient view) asks patients about specific symptoms like cough and fever.
We currently offer over 130 chief complaints spanning family medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, urgent care, and subspecialties. We are constantly adding new chief complaints. To request addition of another chief complaint at no additional cost, please email support [at] cydoc.ai.
A partial list of available chief complaints is shown below. Note that patients are shown patient-friendly versions of condition names, e.g. "High Blood Pressure" instead of "Hypertension."

Yes! Cydoc intake forms are designed to be easy to complete. We have a simple user interface, and we ask only targeted questions, ensuring that your patients can quickly complete the form. Any patient who can use a smartphone, tablet, or computer can complete a Cydoc intake form.
For patients who do not own a smartphone, or who need a larger screen size/larger font size, a clinic-owned iPad or tablet can be used to initiate a Cydoc intake form.
Patient-friendly vocabulary is used throughout the Cydoc intake forms. This patient-friendly vocabulary is then mapped to clinical vocabulary during our note generation process. Thus, where a patient sees "high blood pressure," a clinician sees "hypertension." Where a patient sees "itching," a clinician sees "pruritus."
There is no limit to the number of users affiliated with your clinic's account. When you click "Sign Up" you create a manager account for your clinic. You can then use the Manager Dashboard to send invitations to specific people affiliated with your clinic, so that they can each create their own user login credentials. For example, a clinic may have physician, NP, PA, medical assistant, and nurse users. Each user can view generated notes for your clinic.
