How Auto Fill Works
Auto Fill is SOAP Note Buddy’s core feature. It scans your EMR page, detects every fillable field, generates clinically appropriate content, and fills the form for you.
How It Works
- Open your patient’s note in your EMR.
- Select the patient in the SOAP Note Buddy extension.
- Click Auto Fill.
- The extension scans the page, expanding any collapsed sections or accordion panels to find hidden fields.
- AI generates content for each detected field based on your patient’s eval summary, prior note history, and any custom instructions you have set.
- Fields are filled automatically.
Auto Fill works with any web-based EMR, including Kinnser, Tebra, WebPT, PointClickCare, Epic, and others. No configuration or field mapping is required. The AI reads labels, section headers, and page structure to understand what each field needs.
Field Preview
After Auto Fill runs, a Field Preview panel appears so you can review everything before finalizing.
- Review each field’s generated content.
- Edit any field directly in the preview.
- Regenerate a single field if you want a different result.
- Locate a field on the page by clicking its entry in the preview list.
Field Preferences
SOAP Note Buddy remembers your preferences for each EMR. If you skip or remove a field during preview, it will be skipped automatically on future visits to that same EMR. This means Auto Fill gets smarter and faster the more you use it.
Tips for Best Results
- Add a detailed eval summary for each patient. The more context the AI has, the better the output.
- Use custom instructions to guide the AI toward your preferred writing style or terminology.
- Review the Field Preview after each fill to catch anything that needs adjustment.
