The job
Dentists, orthodontists and other clinicians use the Heidi scribe to write clinical notes from the consultation. The practice uses the Heidi Practice plan across the team. Staff read the transcript, then copy it into the record.

What happened
Clinicians went from up to 15 minutes writing notes per patient to about a minute checking and pasting the transcript.
The operations manager says record quality improved by 60% after six months, which is her own judgement. The practice has 18 clinicians across general dentistry, orthodontics, implants, periodontics and endodontics.
Before you believe it
Heidi wrote the story, so it is a vendor story. The one minute against 15 is the operations manager's own description, not a time study. The 60% record quality gain is her judgement and the page does not say how it was measured. The page gives 18 clinicians and no total staff count. The practice calls itself one of the largest and busiest. Check your regulator's rules on consent for recording.
