How to Save Time with Empathia’s Auxiliary Documentation

By: Empathia Editorial Team

January 4, 2025

Between clinic visits, charting, and inboxes that never sleep, you’ve got more than enough on your plate. And yet — there’s always another form to fill out: sick notes, insurance letters, disability forms, return-to-work slips... You get it.

That’s why we created Empathia’s Supplementary Notes — to make the paperwork behind the care feel less like paperwork and more like a breeze.

📝 What Counts as Auxiliary Documentation?

You know all those extra documents you’re asked to generate beyond your standard chart note? Here’s what we mean:

• Sick leave notes

• Disability certificates

• Medication appeal letters

• Fitness or clearance forms

• Insurance and claims documentation

Important? Absolutely. But that doesn’t mean you should spend 15 minutes drafting each one from scratch.

📄 Supplementary Notes — A Quiet Power Feature

Empathia makes it easy to generate polished, professional-looking notes for all of the above. Simply start from a template, tweak if needed, and click "Generate." That’s it.

No blank screens. No repetitive typing. No formatting struggles.

You can even build your own reusable templates using Template Pro — and apply them right from your patient encounter page.

✨ How to Use It in Your Flow

1. Complete your main encounter note

2. Click "Generate More Notes"

3. Select "Supplementary Note"

4. Pick a template (or create a new one)

5. Review, print, email, or copy it to your EMR

Yes — you can generate multiple notes per encounter. And they’ll all be neatly organized in tabs so you don’t lose track.

💡 Use Case in Action

You finish a follow-up visit with a patient who needs a disability form and a medication appeal letter. Instead of juggling documents post-visit, you generate both notes instantly before they leave — no extra clicks, no stress.

Why Clinicians Love This Feature:

• It’s fast. Less time on admin, more time with patients.

• It’s professional. Clean formatting, consistent structure.

• It’s smart. Templates adapt to your workflow.

• It’s thoughtful. Designed for how you actually practice.

🛠 Pro Tip

Create a mini library of your most-used supplementary templates — like return-to-work notes or insurance letters — and keep them just a click away. You’ll never go back to free-texting them again.

The Bottom Line

Forms and letters shouldn’t steal time from your day or energy from your care. With Empathia’s Auxiliary Documentation tools, you’ll get it done faster — and with way less friction.
