Using Clinical Note Templates

Clinical note templates tell CoTreat how to lay out your clinical notes, so every note for that appointment type comes out in the same order, in shortform, ready to copy into your practice management system.

This article includes ready-made templates for common dental appointments that you can copy and paste straight into CoTreat. They're one way of writing a template. Every practice and clinician writes shortform a little differently, so feel free to adjust them to suit how you write your notes.

In this article:

How Clinical Note Templates Work

A template tells CoTreat what kind of document to write and how it should read, and CoTreat follows it each time it writes that document.

There are a few ways to create one:

  • Describe it: type or dictate the template you want, and CoTreat builds it for you.
  • Paste one in: paste a template from another scribe, brackets and all.
  • Attach a note: attach an existing note you like the shape of.
  • Start blank: paste in one of the example templates from this article, or write your own instructions.
  • Copy an existing template: start from one of yours, your practice's, or ours.

The example templates in this article are written so the note only includes what was said in the appointment, in shortform, with one line per item and a bold label at the start of each line, such as LA: or Tx:. Key lines that weren't covered show [not stated], and anything unclear is written as heard followed by [unclear: …] with the reason.

Always read through the note before copying it into your practice management system, and check any line marked [not stated] or [unclear].

Adding a Template to CoTreat

  1. In the chat bar, either on the home page or in a session, click Create.
  2. Click New template.
  3. From here, either describe or paste in the template you want, or start blank and paste in an example template.




 

Describing or Pasting In a Template

  1. In the What do you want to create? box, describe or dictate the template you want, or paste one in from another scribe, brackets and all. You can also click the paperclip to attach a note you like the shape of.
  2. Click the arrow to send it. CoTreat builds the template for you.
  3. Check the template, name it, choose whether to share it with your practice, and click Add template.

Starting Blank with an Example Template

  1. Find the template for your appointment type under Example Clinical Note Templates below, and copy everything in the grey box.
  2. In the New template window, select Start blank.
  3. Under Tell CoTreat what to write here, paste the template.
  4. Name the template after the appointment type, for example Composite Restoration.
  5. Choose whether to share the template with your practice.
  6. Click Add template.

Adding Other Lines

When building a template, you can also click Add a line to add more to it, such as another instruction, a heading, image, video, widget (like a roadmap, treatment options, investment or payment plans), quotes, or bullet and numbered lists. You don't need these for clinical notes, as the example templates cover everything in one instruction. They're more useful for patient-facing documents. To see how they work, see [link: Creating Patient Letter Templates] and [link: Creating Case Presentation Templates].

Start with one template for an appointment you do often. Try it on a few appointments, then tweak it before adding the rest.

Editing or Copying a Template

Once a template is added, you can change it at any time, or make your own copy of an existing template to use as a starting point.

Editing a Template

  1. In the chat bar, click Create. Your templates and documents are listed.
  2. Click the eye icon next to the template you want to change.
  3. Click Edit.
  4. Make your changes and click Save.

Copying an Existing Template

Use this to start from a template that's already listed, for example one shared by your practice, without changing the original.

  1. In the chat bar, click Create.
  2. Click the eye icon next to the template you want to copy.
  3. Click Edit, making my own copy.
  4. Make your changes and click Add template.

Tailoring the Example Templates

Each example template is a set of written instructions made up of:

  • Role: what CoTreat is writing and where the note is going.
  • Rules: how the note should be written, for example no headings or bullet points, shortform only, and only what was said in the appointment.
  • Abbreviations: the shortform CoTreat should use.
  • Format example: a short sample showing what a finished note looks like.
  • Layout: the lines of the note, in order. Lines marked [REQ] always appear; the rest only appear if mentioned.
  • References: local anaesthetic and prescription lists used for correct spelling and dose format.

You can change any part before you paste it in, for example add or remove abbreviations, swap in a format example written the way you'd write it, or add, remove or reorder lines in the layout.

The local anaesthetic codes, prescription list and materials in these templates are examples. Replace them with the products, brands and doses your practice uses

ROLE
You write a clinical note from an appointment transcript using the layout below. The note is copied straight into the practice management system, so it must be short, plain and in this exact layout.

RULES
1. Record ONLY what is said or clearly confirmed in the transcript. Do not add any step, material, finding, warning, consent, instruction, product, drug, dose or outcome that was not mentioned, even if it is standard for this procedure. Examples in the layout are vocabulary hints only, never defaults.
2. No headings, titles, bullet points, dashes, numbered lists, tables or summaries. Plain lines only, one field per line, in the order shown. Single line break between lines, no blank lines.
3. Start every line with its label in bold followed by a colon, e.g. **LA:** Topical + 2.2ml lignocaine 2% 1:80k B infil. Bold the label only, nothing else.
4. Write in shortform like a dentist: short phrases separated by commas, no full sentences, no filler words. Use standard abbreviations (list below). FDI tooth numbering (e.g. 36). Australian spelling.
5. Lines marked [REQ] must always appear. If the transcript doesn't cover it, write the label followed by [not stated].
6. All other lines are optional. Include them only if mentioned. If not mentioned, leave the whole line out (no empty labels, no "N/A", no "not discussed").
7. Never guess. If anything is unclear, inaudible, contradictory or only partly heard (tooth number, dose, volume, shade, file size, length, material, units), write what you heard followed by [unclear: say exactly what is unclear], e.g. **Tx:** 36 or 37 [unclear: tooth number, both mentioned] or **LA:** 1 or 2 carpules lignocaine [unclear: number of carpules].
8. Output the note only. No intro, explanation or closing text. Never copy the [REQ] markers, the hints in brackets or the example below into the note.

ABBREVIATIONS (use where they fit)
Pt, Tx, Dx, Hx, PC, C/O, MHx, LA, B infil, P infil, L infil, IANB, TTP, NTTP, CO2 +/-, PA, BW, OPG, RL, RCT, RCS, RD, WL, EWL, GP, MGP, NaOCl, CW, exo, mag, occl, POIG (post-op instructions given), OHI, BOP, NAD, MTB/ETB, Rx, tabs, PRN, hrly, mins, wks, mths, NV, R2R.

Do not add any step, material, finding, warning, consent, instruction, product, drug, dose or outcome that was not mentioned, even if it is standard for this procedure. Examples in the layout are vocabulary hints only, never defaults.
2. No headings, titles, bullet points, dashes, numbered lists, tables or summaries. Plain lines only, one field per line, in the order shown. Single line break between lines, no blank lines.
3. Start every line with its label in bold followed by a colon, e.g. **LA:** Topical + 2.2ml lignocaine 2% 1:80k B infil. Bold the label only, nothing else.
4. Write in shortform like a dentist: short phrases separated by commas, no full sentences, no filler words. Use standard abbreviations (list below). FDI tooth numbering (e.g. 36). Australian spelling.
5. Lines marked [REQ] must always appear. If the transcript doesn't cover it, write the label followed by [not stated].
6. All other lines are optional. Include them only if mentioned. If not mentioned, leave the whole line out (no empty labels, no "N/A", no "not discussed").
7. Never guess. If anything is unclear, inaudible, contradictory or only partly heard (tooth number, dose, volume, shade, file size, length, material, units), write what you heard followed by [unclear: say exactly what is unclear], e.g. **Tx:** 36 or 37 [unclear: tooth number, both mentioned] or **LA:** 1 or 2 carpules lignocaine [unclear: number of carpules].
8. Output the note only. No intro, explanation or closing text. Never copy the [REQ] markers, the hints in brackets or the example below into the note.
