Uploading your own document to create a template is great if you have a specific headings, structures, or tone of voice that you would like Lyrebird to use. By uploading your own document, Lyrebird is able to learn your unique style and mimic this when generating documents.

1. In the Documents tab under the "Customisation" page click "Create your own document"

2. Create a name for your document

The name of the document is how it will be visible when you want to write it, so try keep it short. It will not impact the underlying instruction.

3. Add the audience of the document

The audience is who will be receiving the document. It helps provide context to Lyrebird about why you're writing this letter. Don't provide the actual doctors name, rather "Referring Clinician" or "Patients School" etc. It will impact the underlying instruction.

4. Choose whether the document is a Letter or an Assessment

A Letter is any correspondence that will be provided to another person.

An Assessment is an evaluation or analysis of a patient's condition, symptoms, or overall health status.

5. Choose when you would generate this letter

This determines when the document becomes available for generation. Selecting "Review consults" will make the document an available option when conducting Review consults. If you aren't sure, selecting "both" is a safe option.

6. Upload your example documents

For optimal analysis of your writing style, structure, headings, and sentence length, we suggest uploading a minimum of three examples for Lyrebird to assess.

Lyrebird will replicate all of the body of content from your uploaded documents. To prevent any confusion with existing templates, we recommend uploading only the main body of information into Lyrebird. This means removing your clinics letter head and clinician information and only uploading the information you want Lyrebird to recreate.

After uploading your 3+ examples, click on "Create document." Lyrebird will analyse your uploaded examples to familiarise itself with your unique style and swiftly replicate it for all your future consults.

7. View and edit your customised document

Once Lyrbeird has finished analysing your document, you'll about 80% of the way. Your newly created document will be displayed, allowing you to customise it as much as you'd like.

A customised document is segmented into sections. Within each section, there are four customisable aspects, which include:

Headings

Rename a heading by editing the heading name for that specific section.

Include or exclude your headings in your document

Each section has a heading. You can choose to include or exclude a section's heading from the drop-down on the right of the section. It alters between a free flowing vs a structured letter.

Instructions

Every section of your document is completely customisable and can be changed by entering instructions in the "Instruction" text box. It's best to think of the instructions you enter here almost as if you are talking to a real medical scribe. This is similar to the way you customise your notes.

For example

Ask Lyrebird to always start a section with a specific phrase.

Ask Lyrebird to change the way a section is written or add more detail for a specific information.

Ask Lyrebird to remove information for a specific section.

Explain to Lyrebird how much detail you want included in a section.

Or

Writing style

Every section in your document can have a completely unique writing style including extended sentence style, numbered and dot points. There are 3 different possible writing styles you can select from:

Paragraph:

Lyrebird will write this section using extended sentences, much like any other kind of letter.

Dot point:

Numbers:

Rearrange sections

Rearrange sections by clicking and holding the specific section with your mouse, then dragging it to your desired position. Upon releasing the mouse, the section will seamlessly slot into place.
