## Set up your audio

 - Use a microphone positioned close enough to clearly capture both you and your patient.
 - Avoid background noise when possible. Quiet environments produce better results.

## Record the right length

 - Sessions can be as short as 30 seconds or up to an hour.
 - Record the full clinical conversation, especially the parts that matter for documentation.

## Include key clinical details

 - Say the patient’s name, presenting concern, diagnosis or condition, treatment plan, and any medications if you haven’t already set up a patient profile or context.
 - Include any relevant follow-up instructions during the conversation.

## Medication names

 - The AI may misinterpret drug names in the raw transcript.
 - You can review and correct these post-session in your timeline or notes view.

The system filters small talk and background interruptions. Focus on the clinical conversation.
