Clinical Docs
Audit clinical notes for billing compliance, documentation gaps, and coding quality
What You Can Do
This skill audits clinical notes against documentation standards, billing/coding requirements, and quality benchmarks. You extract de-identified notes from Epic or Cerner, and Claude flags missing HPI/ROS/PMH elements, E/M level indicators, medical necessity gaps, timing compliance issues, and clinical inconsistencies. It's designed for compliance reviews, billing optimization, clinician training, and audit preparation without exposing PHI.
Features
identifies missing or incomplete elements that impact billing accuracy and code assignment
reviews HPI, ROS, PMH, assessment/plan for missing sections and vague language
detects medical necessity gaps, underdocumentation, and coding support deficiencies
flags countersigned note delays, addenda rule violations, and documentation window issues
catches clinical contradictions, missing justifications, and unclear clinical reasoning
processes plain text only; supports batch review without PHI exposure
compatible with Epic Chart Review and Cerner Reporting Workbench exports
Example Output
Example 1: E/M Documentation Gap
- Note Type: Office Visit—Established Patient
- Flag: ROS incomplete—only 2 systems reviewed (requires 10+ for MDM-2)
- Impact: Supports 99214 max; consider 99215 with full ROS
- Recommendation: Document all systems reviewed or document number explicitly
Example 2: Medical Necessity Missing
- Note Section: Assessment—Hypertension control
- Flag: No justification for frequency of follow-up (no exam findings, labs referenced)
- Impact: May deny as not medically necessary
- Recommendation: Link plan frequency to exam findings or labs
Example 3: Timing Compliance Issue
- Flag: Countersignature dated 4 days post-encounter (policy allows 24 hours)
- Impact: Potential compliance risk; may affect billing submission
- Recommendation: Escalate to provider for policy review

You can create comprehensive, evidence-based perioperative pain management protocols tailored to individual patient characteristics and surgical requirements. The skill assesses patient risk factors, recommends optimized multimodal analgesia regimens with specific drug selections and dosing rationales, incorporates regional techniques when appropriate, and identifies contingency plans for inadequate pain control or contraindications. This enables you to move beyond generic guidelines toward truly personalized pain management strategies that reduce opioid exposure while maintaining analgesia.

You can synthesize complex patient data—histopathology, molecular profiling, imaging findings, and comorbidities—into structured treatment recommendations aligned with NCCN, ESMO, and ASCO guidelines. The skill accelerates the pathway from diagnosis to actionable decisions by organizing multifactorial information, stratifying risk, flagging guideline-discordant scenarios, and integrating emerging evidence like clinical trial eligibility and novel biomarkers into conventional staging systems.

You can systematically analyze complex oral surgical cases by generating comprehensive pre-operative plans that consider osseous anatomy, neurovascular structures, and patient-specific risk factors. Claude structures multifactorial surgical analysis into actionable operative protocols, risk stratification reports, and detailed procedural workflows that reduce surgical time and improve clinical outcomes while providing medical-legal documentation.

Conduct comprehensive sports injury assessments using standardized orthopedic tests, mechanism-of-injury analysis, and functional capacity evaluation. You'll document findings in insurance-compliant formats, identify red flags requiring referral, establish objective baseline measurements for progress tracking, and generate evidence-based return-to-play recommendations with clear functional milestones.

This skill guides you through structured psychiatric case formulation using a biopsychosocial framework. You input patient presentation, assessment data, and clinical history, then receive a comprehensive formulation that integrates symptom synthesis, differential diagnosis reasoning, predisposing/precipitating/perpetuating factors, protective factors, and evidence-based treatment recommendations. The output is suitable for clinical documentation, insurance authorizations, case conferences, and supervision.

You can rapidly synthesize complex patient data—comorbidities, functional status, labs, medications—into a comprehensive risk profile and actionable optimization plan. This skill guides you through ASA classification, procedure-specific risk stratification, and patient-centered consent documentation to ensure thorough clinical reasoning and defensible preoperative assessment.

You'll develop comprehensive, hierarchical differential diagnoses that integrate clinical reasoning principles with patient safety. This framework helps you identify 'can't-miss' diagnoses, challenge diagnostic assumptions, and sequence diagnostic workup logically—whether managing complex presentations, atypical symptoms, or high-stakes clinical decisions in primary care, urgent care, or specialty settings.

This skill transforms fragmented OT assessment findings—ROM measurements, strength tests, ADL observations—into cohesive clinical narratives that connect impairment to functional limitation to participation restriction. You'll generate SMART goals that satisfy both clinical rigor and insurance reimbursement standards, and build intervention plans with explicit evidence-based rationale that accelerates authorization and justifies medical necessity to payers.
