Ambient Encounter Notes
Eluve listens to your patient encounter and generates structured dermatology notes — history of present illness, full skin examination findings with lesion morphology and distribution, assessment with differential diagnoses, and treatment plan — without you typing a word.
Auto Billing & Coding
CPT codes for E/M visits, biopsies (11102–11107), lesion excisions (11400–11646), destructions (17000–17004), and Mohs surgery (17311–17315) are suggested automatically based on your documentation. ICD-10 codes for conditions like acne (L70), psoriasis (L40), and skin neoplasms (C44) are mapped to each encounter.
Procedure Documentation
Shave biopsies, punch biopsies, excisions, cryotherapy, and electrodessication are documented automatically with lesion site, size, technique, specimen handling, hemostasis method, and wound care instructions — ready for sign-off.
Pathology Referral & Letters
Pathology requisitions are generated with clinical history, lesion description, differential diagnosis, and specimen details. Referral letters to Mohs surgeons, oncologists, or rheumatologists are drafted from the encounter and ready to send.
Treatment Plans & Follow-up
Structured treatment plans for chronic conditions like psoriasis, eczema, and acne are generated from the encounter — including medication regimens, phototherapy schedules, biologic monitoring labs, and follow-up timelines.
Prescription & Medication Summaries
Topical and systemic medications discussed during the visit are captured automatically. Generates patient-friendly summaries with application instructions, frequency, quantity to dispense, and side effects to watch for.

How a dermatology visit works with Eluve
Patient history at a glance
Eluve pulls together the patient's dermatology history — previous biopsies and pathology results, active medication list, allergy history, past procedures, and outstanding follow-ups — into a concise pre-visit brief. Review skin cancer screening history and prior treatment responses before the patient walks in.
You examine, Eluve documents
Focus entirely on the skin exam and patient conversation. Eluve captures lesion descriptions with morphology, size, color, borders, distribution, and anatomic location. Whether it's a focused acne follow-up, a full-body skin cancer screening, or an in-office biopsy, the documentation matches the encounter complexity.
Notes, procedure reports, referrals — done
Review your finished encounter note, sign off on procedure documentation with specimen details, generate pathology requisitions and referral letters, and update treatment plans — all from the same visit. Billing codes including E/M level, procedure codes, and modifiers are pre-filled. Sign off in under a minute and move to your next patient.
Better documentation means fewer denials and more captured revenue
Dermatology has one of the highest procedure-per-visit rates in medicine. Every undocumented lesion count, missing modifier, or vague ICD-10 code is money left on the table.
More
complete documentation per visit
When the ambient scribe captures the full encounter — every condition addressed, every clinical decision, every procedure — your documentation supports the true complexity of each visit without extra work.
Fewer
denied claims
Documentation that captures the clinical reasoning, medical necessity, and payer-specific detail from the start means fewer gaps for payers to deny on — and less time spent on appeals.
3x
More procedures coded correctly per visit
When documentation captures every lesion treated, every modifier needed, and every specimen submitted, practices see substantially more complete and accurate procedure coding per encounter.
3 hrs
Saved per clinician per day
Less time on procedure notes, pathology requisitions, and coding means you leave the clinic on time — or see the additional patients waiting in your schedule.
If you ever get audited, your notes are ready
Dermatology is one of the most frequently audited specialties. Eluve structures every note so it holds up under payer review, OIG scrutiny, and MIPS reporting.
Procedure Documentation Completeness
Every biopsy, excision, and destruction is documented with indication, site, size, technique, anesthesia, specimen handling, and hemostasis — the elements auditors check first when reviewing procedure claims.
Modifier Justification
When modifier -25, -59, or -XS is applied, the note includes the clinical documentation that justifies it — distinct anatomic sites, separately identifiable E/M services, and separate procedural indications.
MIPS Quality Measure Capture
Eluve captures the discrete data points that dermatology MIPS measures require — biopsy follow-up documentation, melanoma coordination of care, and overutilization tracking — so you're not scrambling at reporting time.
Medical Necessity for Every Procedure
Auditors look for clear clinical reasoning that distinguishes medical from cosmetic procedures. Eluve documents the clinical indication, differential diagnosis, and medical necessity for every procedure performed.
HIPAA-Compliant by Default
All data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Eluve is SOC 2 Type II certified and operates under a BAA with every practice. Your patient data is never used to train AI models.

Punch Biopsy Procedure Note
Pre-Procedure
Indication: 67-year-old female with a 12mm erythematous, scaly plaque on the left anterior shin, present for 6 months, unresponsive to topical triamcinolone. Clinical differential includes squamous cell carcinoma in situ (Bowen disease), nummular eczema, and psoriasis. ICD-10: L98.9 (Disorder of skin and subcutaneous tissue, unspecified) Informed consent obtained. Risks discussed including bleeding, infection, scarring, and need for further treatment based on pathology results. Patient verbalized understanding and agreed to proceed.
Procedure
Procedure: 4mm punch biopsy, left anterior shin CPT: 11104 The site was prepped with chlorhexidine and draped in sterile fashion. Local anesthesia achieved with 1% lidocaine with epinephrine (1 mL injected). A 4mm punch biopsy was performed at the center of the lesion, obtaining a full-thickness skin specimen. Hemostasis achieved with aluminum chloride. Wound closed with one 4-0 nylon simple interrupted suture. Specimen: Single 4mm punch biopsy specimen from left anterior shin, placed in formalin, labeled and submitted to dermatopathology.
Post-Procedure Instructions
1. Keep wound clean and dry for 24 hours 2. After 24 hours, clean daily with gentle soap and water, apply petrolatum, and cover with adhesive bandage 3. Suture removal in 14 days (lower extremity) 4. Signs of infection to watch for: increasing redness, swelling, warmth, purulent drainage, or fever 5. Follow-up for pathology results in 7–10 days 6. Activity: Avoid strenuous lower extremity exercise for 48 hours

Frequently asked questions
Yes. Eluve is specifically tuned for dermatology workflows, including lesion morphology descriptions, dermoscopy terminology, procedure documentation, and the high-volume, multi-procedure encounters that define dermatology practice. It captures the clinical detail that general-purpose scribes consistently miss.
Eluve captures lesion characteristics as you describe them — morphology (macule, papule, plaque, nodule), size, color, border regularity, distribution, and anatomic location. It structures these into standardized dermatologic descriptions with dermoscopy findings and ABCDE criteria when applicable, ensuring your documentation is precise and audit-ready.
Yes. Eluve tracks each procedure separately — biopsies, excisions, destructions, and cryotherapy — with individual documentation of site, size, technique, specimen handling, and hemostasis. It applies the correct CPT codes and modifiers for each procedure, so multi-procedure visits are billed completely and accurately.
Yes. Eluve is trained on dermatology encounters and recognizes specialty-specific language — lesion morphology (macules, papules, plaques, nodules, vesicles), dermoscopy findings, skin typing, and conditions from acne and eczema to melanoma and autoimmune blistering diseases.
Yes. Shave biopsies, punch biopsies, excisional biopsies, cryotherapy, electrodessication and curettage, and lesion destructions are all documented automatically — including site, size, technique, anesthesia, specimen handling, hemostasis, wound closure, and post-procedure instructions.
