Run an interpreted visit

Last updated on Sep 29, 2026

AI Interpreter sits between you and a patient who speaks another language. You speak; the patient hears their language. They speak; you hear yours. The whole exchange is transcribed, and a clinical note is generated from it afterwards.

  1. Open AI Interpreter and choose the patient in Search or add patient name — the same patient list as AI Scribe, so the session and its note attach to the chart you already use.
  2. Set Clinician language and Patient language.
  3. Enable audio when the browser asks, and start the session. The transcript builds as you both talk, marked by speaker.
  4. End the session. You will see Generating note in background — the note is added to the patient as soon as it is ready, so you can close the screen.

History lists past sessions and is searchable; open one to re-read the transcript or the note.

Good to know

  • Available languages include Spanish, Mandarin, Portuguese, Russian, Italian and Japanese alongside English; the picker shows the current list.
  • It is one microphone in one room. Put the device where it hears both of you — the same rule that governs scribe audio quality.
  • A session with no audible speech produces no note. If the note says Translation pending or never arrives, check the transcript first: an empty transcript is an audio problem, not a note problem.
  • AI Interpreter is included for every user on the account; nothing has to be unlocked.

It does not replace a certified medical interpreter where your policy or your payer requires one. Treat it the way you treat any AI output: read it before you rely on it.
