With Tandem you can also to dictate directly into a blank template after your consultation, instead of having a patient conversation that Tandem records.
Here's how to use it:
1. Activate Smart Dictation
You can activate Smart Dictation mode by adjusting your visit settings on the home screen or by clicking the down arrow (↓) at the top right.
On the home screen:
Using the quick-start menu in the top right:
2. Dictate to Tandem
The template you selected will appear with all fields empty, and the recording will start automatically. Simply dictate what you want Tandem to place under each heading, then press the 
icon.
Tandem will then automatically insert what you’ve dictated under the appropriate heading.
For best results when dictating, use the format "Heading + Dictated text," and Tandem will place your dictation in the correct section.
For example:
"Subjective: Patient reports feeling fatigued and experiencing headaches."
"Objective: Blood pressure 130/85, heart rate 78 bpm."
"Assessment: Likely tension headaches."
"Plan: Recommend hydration, over-the-counter pain relievers, and a follow-up in one week."
Start and pause the recording of your dictation by clicking the microphone icon or the red stop button:
