What is Quick Actions

Quick Actions is a new way to navigate the MedMe platform more efficiently by surfacing the most common workflows—such as adding an appointment, adding a patient, or starting an AI Scribe session—right from the left-hand navigation panel.

With Quick Actions, you can now start scribing even if:

  • The patient hasn’t been added to MedMe yet

  • No appointment has been booked

  • The patient is a walk-in

Note: If the patient already has a booked appointment, it’s best to launch AI Scribe from the appointment screen on their profile. This minimizes the steps needed to link the encounter later.



Using Quick Actions to Start an Encounter

  1. Open Quick Actions:

    • Click on the Quick Actions button from the left-hand navigation panel.

    • Select Start Scribing from the dropdown.

2. Start Scribing Immediately:

  • This opens a lightweight scribe interface where you can begin capturing audio instantly, no appointment or patient selection needed.

3. Select the Appointment Type:

  • From the "Configure Appointment" section, choose the relevant appointment type (e.g., SOAP note, medication review, consultation encounter).

4. (Optional) Link a Patient Profile Early:

  • You can optionally select or search for a patient profile to link the encounter to at this stage.

  • If the patient does not exist yet, this step can be skipped and completed later.

5. Complete the Encounter:

  • Use the Populate Fields button to fill in the form with scribed content.

  • After reviewing, complete the encounter.

6. Link the Form to a Patient (if not done earlier):

  • After completion, you'll be prompted to link the form to a patient.

  • You may also choose to skip this step for now if you need to get to another patient or don’t have time to create an updated patient profile

7. If skipped, MedMe will automatically generate a placeholder profile in the format: Patient.[Time & Today’s Date]. You can update this profile later as needed.


With Quick Actions, starting an AI Scribe session is easier and faster than ever—thank you for all your feedback that helped shape this feature!
