Fill PDF Forms with AI

Upload PDF forms and let AI automatically fill them using data from your transcription sessions.

Transcribe Health can automatically fill PDF forms using data from your transcription sessions. Upload any fillable PDF form - medical reports, referral forms, insurance documents - and AI will extract the relevant information from your clinical notes to populate the fields.

How it works

  1. Upload a PDF form as a template
  2. AI detects the form fields automatically
  3. During a transcription session, click Fill Form to let AI populate the fields from the session transcript
  4. Review, edit, and download the completed PDF

Uploading a PDF form template

1. Open the PDF Forms tab

Navigate to Templates in the sidebar and click the PDF Forms tab at the top.

  • Add fields - Click + Add to manually add fields the AI missed
  • Re-detect - Click Re-detect to run field detection again
  • Remove fields - Click the trash icon to delete a field

Click Next to add template metadata (name, description, category), then Save to create the template.

Filling a form from a transcription

After recording a transcription session:

  1. Open the session and navigate to the document panel
  2. Click the Fill Form button
  3. Select the PDF form template you want to fill
  4. AI reads the transcription and fills in the form fields automatically
  5. Review the filled values - you can edit any field before downloading
  6. Click Download PDF to get the completed form

Supported form types

Any PDF with fillable form fields works, including:

  • Medical reports - Ontario Form 5108E, Workers' Compensation forms
  • Referral letters - Pre-formatted referral documents
  • Insurance forms - Claim forms, prior authorization requests
  • Government forms - Disability assessments, fitness-to-work certificates

Tips

  • Name your fields clearly during the upload step - the AI uses field names to understand what data to extract from the transcription
  • Add AI instructions in the template metadata to guide the AI on how to interpret clinical notes for specific fields
  • Forms with clearly labeled fields get the best AI filling accuracy
  • You can share PDF form templates with your organization so all members can use them
