✅Patient Prep Guide
How to consent your patient in the appointment
There are two ways to get patent consent when using Scribe
Patients may provide consent prior to their appointment through the Mikata patient hub (additional set-up required).
You can consent the patient when activating Mika in the appointment.
Here are some sample scripts you can use when requesting a patient's consent to use Mika.
Short and concise
"Hi, I'm using the computer's help today to write down our conversation. It's confidential, highly secure and private, and helps quickly write my medical notes. Is that alright?"
Longer and more robust
"I’m using an automated charting assistant to reduce the time and effort it takes for me to write up my notes. This helps me keep your appointment running on time and give you more of my focus during the appointment.
This technology meets all provincial and federal privacy requirements to handle your information. Your information is only accessible by me and used for your care. No audio recording of the conversation is made or kept.
It’s your choice whether I use the assistant. Either way, I will provide the highest quality of care possible. Do you consent to me using the automated charting assistant today?"
Your patients might have questions about Mika. To address these questions, we have some additional information to share:
