Structured Notes: Options

Options allow you to define allowed values for an AI element in a structured template. They maintain consistent wording, reduce editing, and help scan notes more efficiently.

What Options Do

  • Constrain AI output to your approved choices
  • Standardize terminology across providers and visits
  • Enable quick edits by switching a value instead of rewriting text

Single‑Select vs Multi‑Select

Single‑select: AI must pick exactly one option
Multi‑select: AI can include multiple options if present in the conversation

How To Add Options

  • Add or select an AI field in your structured template
  • Open the field settings panel
  • Add options as a list of choices
  • Choose single‑select or multi‑select

Practical Examples

  • Calculus, single choice: light, moderate, heavy
  • Radiographs taken, multi‑choice: BMX, PA, Panoramic, Cephalometric, CBCT
  • Next visit, single choice: 3‑month recall, 60 minutes; 4‑month recall, 60 minutes; 6‑month recall, 60 minutes
ℹ️
Options limit the AI to choose only from the list you provide. If an option would also contain free text, split it into a separate AI field.
Example:
  • Blood Pressure Taken: Yes, No, Under 18 (Options)
  • Blood Pressure Measure: AI field with no options
