Question 1

Is my patient data secure and HIPAA compliant?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We use banking-grade AES-256 encryption for all data in transit and at rest. We are fully HIPAA compliant and sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with every clinic.

Question 2

Does it integrate with my EHR?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We integrate directly with major EHR systems including eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, Epic, Cerner, ModMed, and more via secure API.

Question 3

How long does it take to get set up?

Accepted Answer

Setup takes about 30 minutes with our team. We connect to your EHR, configure your preferences, and you're live. Setup is completely free.

Question 4

What if I need to edit the chart?

Accepted Answer

You can edit anything. The chart is fully editable before you send it to the EHR. Make changes, add notes, adjust anything — then one click sends it back.

Question 5

Can I ask questions about the patient?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Ask anything about the patient — no matter how complicated. You get an instant answer with a citation showing exactly where it came from in the original records.

Question 6

Does the scribe know the patient history?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The scribe already knows the patient's history from all the records we've read. When you dictate, it automatically links to relevant records.

Question 7

What is automated pre-charting and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Automated pre-charting uses AI to prepare a complete patient chart before the physician sees the patient. Layrd connects to your EHR, pulls all relevant records, then runs 15+ specialized AI agents in parallel — each handling a different chart section like HPI, Medications, Labs, Assessment, and Plan. The result is a structured, citation-verified prechart ready for review in under a minute.

Question 8

How does Layrd compare to AI medical scribes?

Accepted Answer

AI scribes transcribe what happens during the visit. They listen and document in real-time. Layrd works before the visit: it reads every record in the patient's history and builds a structured chart proactively. Think of it as the difference between a stenographer and a PA who prepped your entire day. Many clinics use both.

Question 9

What specialties does Layrd support?

Accepted Answer

Layrd supports any outpatient specialty that relies on chart review before visits. Internal medicine, family medicine, cardiology, endocrinology, pulmonology, nephrology, rheumatology, and OB/GYN all use Layrd today. The system includes conditional agents that activate automatically when relevant to the patient.

Question 10

How does citation verification work?

Accepted Answer

Every claim in a Layrd prechart links back to the original document and page number, so any line can be checked against its source in one click. Any claim that cannot be verified against the record is automatically removed.

Question 11

Which EHR systems does Layrd integrate with?

Accepted Answer

Layrd integrates with eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, Epic, Cerner (Oracle Health), ModMed (Modernizing Medicine), and other major EHR systems via secure API connections. We pull patient demographics, visit schedules, medical records, lab results, and imaging reports directly. Charts sync back to your EHR with one click. Setup takes about 30 minutes and is completely free.

Question 12

How much time does automated pre-charting save per day?

Accepted Answer

Physicians using Layrd save an average of 2+ hours per day on chart review and documentation. Each patient chart is prepped in under a minute, compared to 10-15 minutes of manual record review per patient. For a physician seeing 20 patients a day, that adds up fast.

Question 13

What is document triage and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Layrd connects to your fax inbox, lab interfaces, DirectTrust, and other document sources. Every incoming document is automatically read, classified by type, matched to a patient with confidence scoring, labeled, and filed into the correct chart in your EHR. Critical findings like abnormal lab values are flagged immediately.

Question 14

What does Coding Intelligence analyze?

Accepted Answer

For every patient on the schedule, Layrd performs a complete coding analysis: ICD-10 diagnosis review with specificity upgrades, new condition identification, E&M visit code recommendation with full MDM justification, HCC risk adjustment scoring, CPT-II quality codes, care gap analysis, and clinical discrepancy detection.

Question 15

How is Coding Intelligence different from a coding tool that reviews the visit note?

Accepted Answer

Most coding tools look at the problem list and the last visit note. Layrd reads every document in the patient's record — every specialist note, lab result, imaging report, medication, and historical encounter. That's how it catches things like undocumented conditions and coding gaps that surface-level tools miss.

Question 16

What's the revenue impact of Coding Intelligence?

Accepted Answer

The impact comes from multiple mechanisms: E&M code accuracy, G2211 add-on for Medicare visits, modifier-25 split billing, TCM codes for post-discharge visits, HCC risk adjustment for Medicare Advantage patients, and complete CPT-II quality reporting. Average revenue recovered is $47K per physician per year.
