The same workflow signal can point to different underlying clinician needs.
Early capture may preserve context, while late capture may reduce unwanted conversation.
“Sometimes I miss the setup, and sometimes I capture too much before we’re even talking medicine.”
Solveig Christensen · Rheumatologist
She sees complex follow-up patients and starts documentation at different points depending on rooming flow.
What pulls against what
- early context capture vs. unwanted ambient content

This is the setup. The work is inside.
Running it puts you in the room: the full situation and its constraints, stakeholders who push back in their own words, and the decisions that are yours to make. What you produce becomes a Day One Plan — work you can show someone instead of describing.
