| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| De-identification | Removing or obscuring identifiers so data can no longer reasonably identify a person. Suki applies de-identification practices to training-oriented transcripts and related assets while keeping production documentation workflows HIPAA-aware. |
| Diagnosis | The clinician’s determination of a patient’s condition or disease. In interoperability workflows, diagnoses are often encoded with ICD10 or SNOMED so EHR, analytics, and billing systems share the same meaning. |
| Diagnosis Context | Structured diagnosis metadata (code, code type, and description) you pass in ambient session context. Suki uses it to improve problem-oriented note generation and keep generated content aligned with known problems. |
| Dictation | Speaking content that should become text, typically a clinician monologue. In Suki, Dictation workflows focus on real-time transcription, which is separate from full ambient note generation from multi-party visits. |
| Differential Diagnosis | A working list of possible conditions that could explain the patient’s symptoms while the clinician narrows toward a final diagnosis. It is a clinical reasoning concept that can appear in assessment-style documentation. |
