🌟Macros & Custom Suggestion

Mika's Macros and Custom Suggestion work together to make your Scribe experience faster and smoother.

Together, they help you document more efficiently, reduce errors, and maintain consistent records.

How to use Custom Suggestions

Mika AI enhances your Scribe session by listening to the context and suggesting relevant content for note suggestions. After the session, Mika automatically fills in the blanks based on the values you set for the suggestions. Watch the video below for a step-by-step guide on how to create and add Custom Suggestions to your templates.

Create a suggestion

• Method 1: In Library, go to Suggestions and select "Add Suggestion".

• Method 2: In your template editor, click the "Create" button shown above to select the type of suggestion

  • If the field can contain multiple values, choose the 'Multi-selection' option (e.g., Fever symptoms may include sore throat, cough, and runny nose).

• Enter the instruction that you would like Mika to follow

• Customize the available values for the suggestion

• Mika will use this instruction to match the answer from the options you provided

You can set a fallback value by selecting the desired options. If Mika is unable to extract an answer from the appointment session (or if the topic wasn’t covered), the default value will be displayed instead.

Using Mika AI suggestions in Note

Before session completed

Suggestions are displayed in grey by default. Providers can click on the suggestions to jot down notes and select options from the menu.

Mika will not alter the values you have selected after the session is completed. It will only provide suggestions for fields that remain empty.

After session completed

Mika will suggest answers based on the appointment conversation, displaying them in pink. Default values will also be shown in pink if the topic wasn’t covered during the session. For fields without a default value or conversation data, suggestions will turn orange to highlight that input is needed.

After edit / interact with the suggestions

Once you update the value, the suggestion will change to grey. Any fields left empty will be displayed as '____' in the EMR.

Updating Suggestions

Editing in Library

You can edit suggestions directly in the Library. Since suggestions can be reused across multiple macros, templates, and notes, any edits made here will apply everywhere the suggestion is used.

Editing within a template:

• If you edit a suggestion inside a template, the change will not apply globally.

• Instead, Mika will make a copy of the suggestion, which you can modify and save as a new custom suggestion.

• Click on the suggestion to open the preview modal, then select “Make a copy”, edit, and save.

• This ensures your edits only affect the template you’re working on. The new copy will also be added to your Library for future use.

If you want to update the original suggestion everywhere it’s used, close the template window and edit the suggestion directly from the Library.

If you delete a suggestion:

• Any macros or template that used it will show “Missing”.

• A ! warning icon will appear in the Library to indicate the deletion.

• In notes, missing suggestions will display as .

To resolve this, either insert another suggestion or remove the missing field. Otherwise, missing suggestion will continue to happen in the note.

FAQ

• Macros not appearing?

  • Check the Macros library to ensure they are loaded.

• Custom Suggestions not responding in the note?

  • If the session doesn't include relevant data, the suggestion field will be highlighted in orange to indicate missing content. To ensure continuity, you can set a default value in the template. This default will automatically populate in the note when no related content is available.

• Have a lot of macros in your EMR?

  • The ability to import or export macros directly from the EMR is not yet available. For now, you can create and manage your macros on the Mikata Platform or copy and paste existing macros in your EMR into the library.

• What if Mika doesn’t understand or misses part of the conversation?

  • If Mika cannot identify an answer from the conversation, it will display a default value (if set) or highlight the suggestion in orange for your attention.

• Can I use macros and AI Suggestions together?

  • Absolutely! You can insert a macro to handle standard content and use AI Suggestions within the macro to dynamically capture session-specific information.

• What if Mika’s suggestions are incorrect or irrelevant?

  • If Mika’s suggestions are inaccurate, you can manually adjust the suggestion values and provide feedback by reporting a bug from the bottom right icon (Feedback) to improve future accuracy.
