Adding Records

Adding your records to Inciteful Med is the best way to get truly personalized answers. Most of medicine is designed for population-level care. Out of necessity, standards of care are built around the “average” patient.

But the science behind those standards is far more detailed and nuanced.

When you add your records, Inciteful Med can use your specific health history to surface medical literature relevant to your exact circumstances, pre-existing conditions, and context.

Goodbye population-level assumptions. Hello personalized insight.

There are a few ways to can add your health information.

You can copy and paste the text into the question box. This information will be saved within that thread only and won’t be added to the patient profile. As a result, it won’t be available to other threads.

You can also choose to upload files directly from your device. Select Upload Records on the New Question page or click the Paperclip icon in the question box.

Clicking on either will open a modal. Here you can drag and drop files, or select them from your device. We support PDF, images, text files, csv, as well as health-specific import formats including ZIP, FHIR, JSON, C-CDA.

Uploaded records and health history are saved to the patient profile, so your information follows you into new threads when it’s relevant. This allows you to do things like compare results over time, prepare for upcoming visits, and determine whether a treatment change may be needed based on your current medications and history.

When you’re navigating healthcare, context matters, but it’s hard to know which details are important. Your health history is always available, even when you organize research into separate threads. You can still go deep on a specific diagnosis or event, but your story carries forward from one question to the next, helping ensure your insights are personalized, relevant and informed by the full picture, not buried somewhere in your chart.

If you have a full medical record export, you can upload the ZIP or JSON file directly. Inciteful Med will process the file and automatically organize it into individual records for each patient. Select the file and the tool will detect the file type automatically.

This is especially helpful if your export includes multiple patients in the same file — we’ll separate and assign the records appropriately so each patient’s history stays accurate and organized.

Your records are saved to the patient profile. Navigate to the patient profile from the New Question page.

You can see a list of the medical records saved to a patient profile by viewing Medical Data. You can download records or delete them. Deleting a file removes it from the patient’s profile and from future research threads. If the file was previously uploaded inside a specific thread, its contents will remain in that thread history. To fully remove any reference you must also delete that thread.
