Dictation Workflow for Rapid, Structured Notes

Written by Dr. Harvinder Power

Set up

  • Select Dictate in New Session; pick your microphone.

  • Skim your template headings before you start so you can “speak to structure”.

Speak in headings

  • “Subjective: … Objective: … Assessment: … Plan: …” — brief, declarative sentences.

  • Pause between sections; resume when ready.

Finish up

  • Generate the summary; edit minor phrasing; add Specific Instructions if needed.

  • Use Download (DOCX) or push to the EHR once happy.
