SOAP Note Buddy Works Seamlessly with eClinicalWorks
eClinicalWorks (eCW) is one of the largest ambulatory EHR vendors in the United States, serving medical practices, community health centers, and healthcare organizations. It's particularly popular with primary care, internal medicine, and multi-specialty practices.
SOAP Note Buddy works alongside eClinicalWorks to automate your clinical documentation. It runs as a browser extension (Chrome, Safari, Brave, Edge) right next to eCW, plus companion iOS and Android apps on one subscription that syncs across devices. While eCW handles scheduling, billing, and patient management, SOAP Note Buddy adds AI-powered note generation that fills your progress notes, HPI, assessments, and plans automatically.
SOAP Note Buddy works as a browser extension - if eClinicalWorks runs in Chrome, we can detect and fill its fields. No API setup, no IT tickets, no waiting for approvals.
How SOAP Note Buddy Works with eClinicalWorks
SOAP Note Buddy integrates with eClinicalWorks through intelligent browser-based field detection. Here's the process:
Get SOAP Note Buddy
Start your free trial, then add the browser extension (Chrome, Safari, Brave, Edge) or install the iOS or Android app. Setup takes under a minute, with no IT tickets and no approval process.
Add Your Patient Context
Enter the patient's clinical context - diagnosis, history, chief complaint, and relevant information. This data stays on your device and is never stored on external servers.
Open eClinicalWorks in Your Browser
Navigate to your patient's chart in eClinicalWorks. SOAP Note Buddy automatically detects documentation fields - progress notes, HPI, assessments, plans, and more.
Click Generate
With one click, AI generates clinically appropriate content and fills your eCW fields directly. Review, adjust as needed, and sign your note.
Prefer to dictate? On the iOS and Android apps, Voice Scribe records patient encounters hands-free and auto-transcribes them into a note. Or skip voice entirely and use the text-based workflow, your choice. Voice Scribe is part of the Unlimited+ plan.

eClinicalWorks Users Save Hours Every Day
"Our practice has used eClinicalWorks for years. Documentation was always the bottleneck - we'd see patients all day and then spend hours finishing notes. SOAP Note Buddy cut my note time from 15 minutes to 3 minutes per patient. I'm seeing the same number of patients but actually getting home for dinner now."
At 20 patients/day, saving 10 minutes per note = 3+ hours per day

Does SOAP Note Buddy officially integrate with eClinicalWorks?
SOAP Note Buddy works as a browser extension (Chrome, Safari, Brave, Edge), so it doesn't require an official integration or API connection. If eClinicalWorks runs in your browser, SOAP Note Buddy can detect and fill fields automatically. No IT approval or setup required.
How is this different from eCW's built-in templates?
eCW templates use pre-written text that's the same for every patient. SOAP Note Buddy uses AI to generate unique, personalized content based on each patient's clinical context. No more copy-paste documentation that looks identical across patients.
Will my IT department need to approve this?
No. SOAP Note Buddy is a personal browser extension (Chrome, Safari, Brave, Edge), with companion iOS and Android apps, that you install yourself. It doesn't require any eClinicalWorks integration, API access, or IT approval. Your patient data stays on your device and is processed securely with PHI automatically removed.
Is SOAP Note Buddy HIPAA compliant for use with eClinicalWorks?
Yes. PHI is automatically scrubbed before any data is sent to AI processing. Patient names, DOBs, addresses, and identifiers are removed locally on your device. We're HIPAA compliant and offer a Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
What specialties does it support?
SOAP Note Buddy works for primary care, internal medicine, family medicine, pediatrics, and various specialties. The AI adapts to your specialty's documentation requirements.
Can our whole practice use this?
Yes. Each physician needs their own subscription, but setup is individual - no practice-wide deployment needed. Each provider installs the browser extension (or the iOS/Android app) themselves.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $29/mo (Starter, 40 notes/mo), $49/mo (Unlimited), or $79/mo (Unlimited+ adds Voice Scribe and Smart Image Analysis). Annual saves ~15%. Free 7 day trial, cancel anytime. No enterprise contracts. Less than half the cost of Freed ($39-$119/mo) or Heidi ($150/mo).
Can I use voice recording with eClinicalWorks?
