Steps to query or summarize the transcript
Transcript queries begin from the patient view, which brings together all recorded interactions for a patient during your current shift. Each patient view includes access to all transcripts generated from recordings associated with that patient.
1.Record, then open a patient
After completing a recording in Dragon Copilot for Epic Rover, open the Dragon Copilot app and select a patient from the patient list. This opens the patient view for the current shift.
2.Open Copilot chat.
From the patient view, select the Copilot button to open the Copilot chat drawer. This is where you ask questions and request summaries based on the patient’s transcripts.
3.Ask a question or request a summary.
In the Copilot prompt box, ask a natural language question or request a summary. For example:

Summarize recent patient interactions for this shift.
Dragon Copilot uses only the patient’s recorded transcripts to generate responses.
4.Review the response.
Dragon Copilot provides a conversational response grounded in the transcript content. Responses include links back to the source transcripts, allowing you to verify where the information came from.
5.Copy and use.
Select Copy to quickly transfer the answer into your documentation, handoff notes, or charting.
Note
Transcript queries and summaries are generated only from the patient’s recorded transcripts for the current shift. Dragon Copilot does not reference flowsheet data, structured EHR fields, or information from other patients or shifts. If details were not spoken during a recording, they will not appear in the response.
Use the Prompt Library
In addition to free text questions, you can use the Prompt Library to run common, prewritten prompts against patient transcripts.

Prompts are created and managed by your administrator to align with local workflows or documentation standards.

Organization specific prompts are configured by administrators. Availability and prompt content may vary by organization. If your administrator has not configured any prompts, an "unable to load prompt library" message will occur.
