Heidi

“Free version of Heidi on my phone, dictation mode, email to self and insert in to notes. It's improved my documentation no end, and it's probably 98% accurate on most medical terms. It's improved the juniors discharge letters and makes reviews easier. If you're not sure, just use the free version for a while, it'll change your life. I've never tried the consultation mode aspects, but recording patients in any form is potentially problematic in a historically slow to adapt NHS.”

“There was that one example like a month ago where the patient noticed the doctor treating her differently. She enquired about the AI note taking and was given a printout of its logs, which she posted to Reddit. A Redditor released that she may have been categorized as a trans woman (she is cis) because of the AI mishearing "female mailman" as her occupation, working for the US post office. It turned out this was the case and the doctor obviously was not spending enough time checking the AI notes”

“I am a GP that uses Heidi everyday. Documentation/paperwork is the part of medicine that all healthcare providers dislike the most. We would much rather be speaking to our patients, listening to our patients, examining our patients and thinking about our patients problems. By reducing the amount of time we spend mindlessly typing the stuff we were just talking about, we have much more time to do all of that other stuff. Writing notes is incredibly onerous and is often done outside of work hours,”

“I use Heidi every day in a clinical setting. It is an Australian company that is compliant with all NZ privacy laws. The audio is not recorded, it just creates a transcript of the conversation and then the AI uses a template supplied by the clinician to bring order to it. Currently it saves me at least 1-2 hours a day in admin and I won’t go back. My notes are comprehensive, I can spend more time listening to you, I generate letters back to referrers faster so the rest of your clinical team is k”

“Heidi Health’s privacy pages sound reassuring but leave key gaps. The company says it is HIPAA and GDPR compliant and never sells data, yet its terms allow use of “de-identified” or “aggregated” recordings to “improve services” or share with “related companies.” Under GDPR, once data is labeled anonymized, it can legally be reused or sold without new consent, meaning patient conversations could train or inform commercial AI models. The site also promises that audio “disappears” after transcripti”

“Stop using it. Forgety you ever did. This can land you in serious trouble. Easily. A few whispers to legal is all it takes. You are feeding personal and confidentail information into a application you cant vouch for when it comes to security, and even if you could, it would not matter to legal and IT. You are in breach of regulations your employer has in place. Companies with far less important data fire people using unapproved apps for confidential information.”

“OP I have no vested interest in whether you're following your company's HIPAA policies but i can tell you that the way that you are using Heidi AI scribe is not adherent to those policies. On the app's own website they say that they can be HIPAA compliant but that basically means that the vendor has an executed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with your employer (i'm just parsing the fancy language in the regulations). basically unless your employer is providing this app to you as something th”

“Hey everyone, I've been testing out various AI medical scribes over the past several months. Some were decent, some were bad, a lot were expensive, and one was very good. I wanted to share my experience with my favorite one: Heidi Health. First off, this is the only tool that has a free version with unlimited consults and dictation. Rather than limiting you to just a few notes or a one week test run, Heidi's free version is excellent. This tool has made documenting patient encounters so much eas”

“Hi, I'm currently using a different medical scribe (Freed AI) but was thinking of switching to Heidi as I like the UI and set up more. I have a particular style to my notes based on templates I have used in the past, but the nice thing I like about Freed is the ability for me to edit the note, then hit a button so the AI can "Learn" from my previous notes and in the future structure notes similarly to how I have edited it. This way I don't have to choose a template and then type or edit it manua”

“I use it at my work - we don’t actually input any patient demographics into Heidi itself so unless you’re asking to say your name and details it shouldn’t log it Personally I don’t trust it (to accurately document) so I type anything of importance alongside into my clinical file to ensure I don’t miss anything… but it’s suuuuuper handy at structuring and formatting notes. It has the ability to add context so at my work we input your medication list and diagnosed conditions or copy a not from a p”
