Using the Wavo Health AI Assistant to Gain Insights

Whether you require a session summary or specific details, the Wavo Assistant delivers answers based on encounter data.


What Is the Wavo Health AI Assistant?

The AI Assistant lets you ask questions about the encounter you have open. When that encounter is assigned to a patient, it can also use earlier visits for that patient. It’s designed to help you:

  • Summarize key information such as diagnoses, symptoms, and medications

  • Highlight important observations from a session

  • Receive suggested follow-up actions based on available data

The AI Assistant only uses data from your Wavo Health encounters, helping maintain privacy and compliance standards.


How to Use the AI Assistant

Step 1: Access the AI Assistant

  1. Sign in to Wavo Health at
    https://secure.wavo.health/en/sign-in

  2. Open a clinical note from your dashboard or patient profile (this can be a past encounter or a demo note).

  3. On the right side of the screen, click the AI Assistant tab to open it.


Step 2: Ask Questions About a Single Encounter

When viewing a specific note, the AI Assistant answers questions based on that encounter.

Example questions:

  • “What medications were mentioned in this session?”

  • “What follow-up actions were suggested?”

  • “What could be the underlying cause of the patient’s abdominal pain and diarrhea?”

Type your question into the input field at the bottom of the AI Assistant panel and press enter.

The AI uses the encounter’s transcription, clinical note, Notes and Context, and completed attachments.


Step 3: Explore Insights Across Encounters

Assign the encounter to a patient, then ask from the AI Assistant on that page. The Assistant can use up to 20 earlier visits.

Example questions:

  • “Summarize the diagnoses documented in earlier visits.”

  • “What medications were recorded in earlier visits, and on which dates?”

  • “What follow-ups were recorded at the previous visit?”

This does not add previous visits to generated notes. Turn on Use previous visits context in Notes and Context to include them. See Adding Information Before and During Encounters with the Notes Tab.


Step 4: Review AI-Generated Insights

Each clinical note includes an Insights section where the AI highlights important information:

  • Key observations
    Notable details such as abnormal vitals or concerning symptoms.

  • Follow-up suggestions
    Potential next steps, like scheduling follow-ups or ordering tests.

  • Private notes
    During real-time transcription, Wavo may surface private notes for your review—details flagged by the AI that may not have been explicitly stated by the patient.

These insights are meant to support your clinical judgment, not replace it.


Querying Uploaded Document Attachments

If you’ve uploaded supporting documents—such as lab results, imaging reports, or referral letters—the AI Assistant can reference them when answering your questions.

How it works

  • Upload files (PDFs, Word documents, text files, or images) to the Notes and Context section of an encounter.

  • Wavo extracts text from your uploads. A green checkmark indicates the content is ready.

  • The AI Assistant can then reference this information when responding to your queries.

Example questions:

  • “What were the key findings in the lab report?”

  • “Summarize the referral letter from the specialist.”

  • “Are there any abnormal values in the uploaded test results?”

  • “What medications are listed in the uploaded records?”

The AI uses documents from the current encounter, along with the transcription and notes. Attachments from earlier visits are not included.


Tips for Getting the Best Results

  • Be specific
    Focused questions lead to more relevant answers (for example, “What was the patient’s chief complaint?” instead of “Tell me about the patient.”).

  • Use alongside Insights
    Combine manual questions with the Insights section to get a fuller picture of the encounter.

  • Leverage follow-up suggestions
    Use AI-suggested next steps to support continuity of care and care planning.
