Record multilingual conversations

Do you have conversations with your patients in different languages?
If enabled by your administrator, DAX Copilot for Epic supports recording in English and Spanish. Your administrator can also enable Multilingual recording to allow you to record conversations where both you and your patient speak a language that's different from English or Spanish.

You can change the language setting between recordings for the same encounter to capture the conversation in the language that is most comfortable for both you and your patient. The new language setting applies to the next recording and remains selected until you change it again.

To record conversations with a patient in their native language:

Important considerations

• Ensure both you and your patient are fluent in the selected language to avoid any misunderstandings or inaccuracies in the documentation.
• Transcripts for multilingual recordings don't indicate who is speaking. The transcribed conversation appears as one continuous block of text in the recording language, and isn't translated into the default recording language.
• Documentation appears in English. The clinical documentation that DAX Copilot for Epic generates from multilingual recordings appears in English.
• Check for accuracy. The clinical documentation that DAX Copilot for Epic generates from multilingual recordings might not be as accurate as documentation generated from conversations recorded in English or Spanish. Consider recording important medical facts in English before or after the encounter. Review the documentation carefully and make any necessary edits to ensure it accurately reflects the patient encounter.
