Healthcare practices

Front-office and billing staff ask about a policy, a procedure or a payer's rules and get the answer from your own documents, with the source named.

For policies, procedures, payer rules and other administrative documents. Talk to us about your HIPAA requirements before you start.

How patient information (ePHI) is protected

Your catalog is for the knowledge that runs your practice: policies, procedures and payer rules. Patient identifiers are kept out of it, and checked for at every step.

  • Checked before it is kept

    Every document is checked before it enters your catalog. Medicare numbers, medical record numbers, health plan member and subscriber IDs, dates of birth in medical records, Social Security numbers, and card and bank numbers are never stored, searched or shown in any app.

  • Left out, and you see why

    A document that contains any of them is left out of the catalog entirely, and your catalog shows which documents and why. Files on your own servers are checked at your office, before anything is sent.

  • Never in an answer, never published

    Copilot, Teams, ChatGPT and your website can't quote what isn't there, and a public AI search answer page that contains a patient identifier can't be published.

  • Files never stored

    The catalog keeps only the text of the folders you choose, in memory, never the files. Remove a folder and its text is gone, and each department's documents are seen only by the people and groups you choose.

The check finds identifiers in the ways they are usually written; no automatic check can recognize every form, such as a diagnosis described in words.

How sensitive information is kept out of every catalog

Questions your people ask

Asked in Copilot, Teams, ChatGPT or Slack, and answered from your own documents with the source named.

  • “What is our procedure when a patient arrives without a referral?”
  • “What does the payer manual say about prior authorization for an MRI?”
  • “What is our policy for releasing records to an attorney?”

Built around your payers or departments

  • Compare payers or departments side by side

    Ask one question of several payers at once, such as how each handles timely filing, and get each one's answer from its own documents.

  • A payer or department from start to finish

    Ask for a payer or department and get every document in its folder in date order, or an outline of what happened.

  • Who sees what

    Keep management and HR documents to the people who need them, by Microsoft 365 group or by person.

  • Cited to the page

    Every answer names the document and the page, so it can be checked before it is relied on.

Your documents stay yours

Built for businesses that answer to clients and regulators.

  • Files are never stored

    The Catalog Server reads documents where they are and keeps only their text, in memory. Nothing is written to its disk; remove a folder and its text is gone.

  • Every client kept apart

    Each organization has its own catalog, its own connection to the server and its own index. One organization's question can never reach another's documents.

  • Your sign-in rules apply

    Two-factor sign-in for every account, or Sign in with Microsoft so your own MFA and Conditional Access apply and leavers lose access when IT disables them.
