📋 Your Notes Will Use the Diagnosis You Assigned

We're changing how diagnoses appear in your notes: when you've saved a diagnosis for a client, your documentation will use it, instead of inferring a diagnosis from that session's conversation alone.

You told us why this matters, clearly and repeatedly. Many diagnoses rest on history that doesn't come up in every session: a past manic episode, when a trauma occurred, a pattern you established months ago. A note that reasons only from today's transcript can't know that, and you shouldn't have to correct your own documentation to reflect a diagnosis you already made. Your clinical judgment leads; the note follows it.

If you haven't saved a diagnosis yet, nothing changes: Upheal will still suggest clinically relevant possibilities based on the session, and we're keeping that as a way to surface diagnoses worth considering, never as a replacement for your call.

    You were right about this and it's now in progress. When a diagnosis is saved on a client, notes will use it rather than inferring one from the session alone. If nothing is saved, Upheal keeps suggesting possibilities for you to consider. Rolling out soon.

    Please incorporate given diagnoses into progress notes

    Progress notes sometimes do not reflect the given diagnoses. For example, in the notes for a client with a diagnosis of paraplegia, some of her disability-related behaviors, such as using a wheelchair, were misinterpreted. Similarly, in the notes for a client with a diagnosis of Dissociative Identity Disorder, evidence of different parts (such as childlike voices) were not accurately described as parts. Can AI take these diagnoses into account when describing behaviors?

      Diagnoses in the client details...

      Whenever I try to prompt the smart sections in templates or the upheal assistance to utilize the documented diagnoses located under client details it will not do it. It will come up with diagnoses or even differential diagnoses located only in the progress notes (which are there because it will not only reference the listed ones) and I have to keep correcting it. this gets frustrating because I try to prompt the template to do a justification for the diagnoses but it will come up with different ones.
