By utilizing a recording of your consultation, AI Assistant can automatically generate a summary of the consultation.

It can look something like this!

Here's how it'll look in your SOAP:

Important: The AI Assistant provides a draft based on the consultation recording. You must always review and edit the generated document to ensure accuracy, completeness, and compliance with your professional standards and legal requirements before finalizing it.

How to invite a Sub-user to your account?

Shared by Reinna • May 07, 2025

We understand that managing a practice on your own can be overwhelming and complicated. That’s why we’re committed on making your practice management easier.

One way to achieve this is by inviting your secretary as a sub-user of your account. This helps optimize your workflow and ensures efficient collaboration within your clinic.

Begin by logging into your SeriousMD account via web. Once logged in, follow these simple steps:

  • Step 1: Go to Settings.
  • Step 2: Under Security, select Sub-Users.
  • Step 3: Look for the '+' icon and click on it.

  • Step 4: Input your secretary's email address and specify their role (e.g., secretary).
  • Step 5: Click "Invite" to dispatch the invitation

Once the invitation is sent, your secretary will receive an email with further instructions:

  • Step 1: Your secretary should open the email and click on the invitation link.

  • Step 2: This will open a new tab, prompting your secretary to complete their registration by following the on-screen instructions.

With the registration process complete, your secretary is now a sub-user of your SeriousMD account: Your secretary can now log in to SeriousMD using their own credentials.

  • Step 3: They will have access to specific functions and data based on the role you assigned

You can make adjustments to what your sub-user can access by going to Settings > Security > Permissions.

Once you've made changes, be sure to have your secretary log out and then log back in to ensure the changes are reflected on their end.

There's also an Activity Tracker available if you ever want to keep an eye on what your staff has been doing inside the app. 👀

Tip of the Week

Link Your Records to the Patient's NowServing Account!

Chelsea avatar
Shared by Chelsea • April 28, 2025

If your patient says they can’t message you or if you’re wondering how to properly link their NowServing account to the record you have on SeriousMD, don’t worry—we’ve got you covered. 🙌

There are a couple of simple scenarios that could be happening, and here’s how you can resolve them quickly.

Scenario A: You created the patient record manually

At this point, the patient hasn’t set up their NowServing account yet. Here’s what you can do:

Option 1: Send the NowServing Link

  • Go to the patient’s profile
  • Click Send NowServing Link

  • This sends an SMS inviting the patient to download the NowServing app.

Once the patient installs the app and creates their account, it will automatically link to the record you created.


Option 2: You saw the patient in person and sent them a digital note

  • If you send a digital note (SOAP, prescription, lab request, etc.), the patient will receive an SMS with a download link.
  • Once they download the app, their account is also linked automatically to your record.

🔹 Scenario B: You merged patient records, and they can’t message you

This sometimes happens after merging duplicate profiles. If the patient’s account was affected, simply resend their NowServing link (like in Scenario A). This will bind their NowServing account to the updated patient record.

Get Your Payments Weekly!

Windell avatar
Shared by Windell • April 21, 2025

Payments settled by patients through SeriousMD are processed every Sunday evening. After processing, it typically takes 24–72 hours for the funds to appear in your registered bank account.

Want to check your payout status?

Go to Billing > Payouts on the SeriousMD web version or click here to view it directly.
✔ Payments will show as Pending first
✔ Then move to Paid Out once successfully transferred


🔍 Seeing a “Pending Payout” message? Here’s why that may happen:

Reason 1: Missing BIR Form 2303 (Certificate of Registration)
We’re required to collect your BIR Form 2303 to process payouts. This document includes your tax details and obligations.


Upload it under My Profile > BIR Form 2303 on SeriousMD Web.


Once validated, your future payouts will be included in the regular weekly disbursements.

❗ Don’t have a Form 2303 yet? You can still receive payouts, but a 37% tax will be deducted by default.


Reason 2: Missing or Incorrect Payout Details

If your Form 2303 is already submitted but you still see a pending payout, please double-check your bank details under your profile. We won’t be able to process your payout without complete or accurate information.


Reason 3: Sworn Declaration Pending (Optional)
If you've previously submitted a Sworn Declaration, payouts will be placed on hold while waiting for your latest version for this year.

Don’t want to submit one anymore? Just let us know and we’ll update your tax profile accordingly!
