Knowtex AI Consultation Conversion Templates
- Knowtex currently has two available standard AI conversion templates (Visit Notes and Op Notes).
- Upon request, Knowtex and create other visit-specific templates based on 4D EMR appointment types, including non-clinical conversations. Please contact Knowtex directly for options and pricing.
- Knowtex determines which AI conversion template to use based on the Appointment Type from 4D EMR
For example: Knowtex will be configured to use the same AI conversion template for all appointments uploaded from 4D EMR with 4D EMR Appointment Type name "New Patient Consult".

The below appointment examples are both appointment type "New Patient Consult". Knowtex will use the same AI conversion template for both appointments.
One appointment has a sub-type for Facelift and the other for Abdominoplasty. Neither of these values, nor information entered in "Concern" or "Comments" or other information associated with the appointment will be considered by Knowtex when determining the AI conversion template and final content of the note.
If the provider wishes to have different AI conversion templates for Facelift and Abdominoplasty consults, additional 4D EMR Appointment Type should be created and used for scheduling those consult types. Knowtex can then use different templates for the different appointment types.

- 4D EMR Note Types and note headers for downloaded Knowtex medical notes are determined by the Chart Note Type set for each 4D EMR Appointment Type.


- 4D EMR Chart Note Templates are distinct and different from the Knowtex AI conversion templates. 4D EMR Chart Note Templates are not uploaded to Knowtex by 4D EMR or used by Knowtex when generating medical notes.
