The most common medical record writing mistakes - and how AI helps you avoid them
Notetaking - a critical but time-consuming part of the profession
As a veterinarian, you know that documentation is crucial - both legally and medically. Yet it's easy to miss important details on the fly or copy text from previous cases. This is where AI becomes a valuable support.
Common mistakes that AI can detect and prevent
Excluded or incorrect medical history data
You miss something that the pet owner says
Unclear treatment plans
Missed diagnoses or unanswered differentials
Absence of vital signs
Linguistic errors and duplication between systems
"When you have had several visits in a row, it is easy to miss something - Vetz catches what I forgot."
- Karin, Leg. Veterinarian

Example: How Vetz improves a deficient note
Before:
"The dog is limping. Examined the leg. No x-ray."
Here, an important detail mentioned by the pet owner - that the dog was injured while playing in a park - has been missed. This can be crucial to understanding the cause of the problem, but stress or multitasking often means that such details are missed.
After with Vetz:
"Patient seeks for right rear lameness. The pet owner tells us that the dog started limping after running loose in the park the day before. Palpatory tenderness in knee joint, no swelling. No x-ray performed at this visit. Prescribed rest for five days. Return visit in 7 days."
Vetz AI picked up the location and context of the injury, giving a clearer and more complete history - without you having to remember it yourself. Palpatory tenderness in knee joint, no swelling. No x-ray performed at this visit. Prescribed rest for five days. Return visit in 7 days."
