Getting the Most Out of Amelia: Prompt Ideas & Use Cases

Not sure what to ask? Here are some ways providers are putting Amelia to work.

Amelia is your AI copilot inside CarePilot β€” available any time you're charting on the web app. You can ask her to help with note edits, answer clinical questions, summarize information, and more. The more specific you are, the better the output.

Here are some prompts to get you started:

✏️ Note Editing

These are the bread and butter β€” quick, natural language requests to tighten up your note:

  • "Make the assessment more concise."

  • "Rewrite the plan in bullet points."

  • "Add that the patient declined a referral to cardiology."

  • "Change the HPI to past tense."

  • "Remove any mention of weight from this note."

  • "Make this note sound less formal."


🩺 Clinical Support

Amelia has clinical knowledge and can help you think through cases in the moment:

  • "What are the first-line treatments for newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes?"

  • "Summarize the current guidelines for CKD staging."

  • "What's the typical workup for unexplained fatigue in a 45-year-old female?"

  • "Are there any drug interactions between metformin and lisinopril?"

  • "What ICD-10 code is associated with essential hypertension?"


πŸ“‹ Summarization

Use Amelia to distill complex notes or histories into something more readable:

  • "Summarize this note in 3 sentences."

  • "Give me a brief summary of this patient's visit suitable for a handoff."

  • "Pull out the key diagnoses and plan items from this note."

  • "Write a patient-friendly version of this assessment."


πŸ“ Documentation Cleanup

Great for polishing notes before they go to the chart:

  • "Check this note for any missing elements of a complete SOAP note."

  • "Expand the physical exam section β€” it feels too sparse."

  • "Reformat this note to match a problem-oriented style."

  • "Make the plan section match the diagnoses listed in the assessment."


πŸ’‘ Tips for Better Results

  • Be specific. "Make this better" is harder for Amelia than "Make the HPI more detailed and in chronological order."

  • Give her context. If you're working with a complex patient, you can tell her: "This patient has a history of CHF and CKD β€” keep that in mind as you edit."

  • Iterate. Not quite right? Just ask her to adjust: "Good, but shorten it by half."


Amelia is available on the CarePilot web app (laptop or desktop) and is not visible in the mobile app. Have a prompt that worked really well? Send us a chat and we'll add it here.
