Frequently Asked Questions
What is OpenClinic?
OpenClinic is a provider-facing, local-first clinical workspace prototype built with SwiftUI and SwiftData. It integrates patient charting, encounter documentation, clinical photography, anatomical lesion tracking, SMART on FHIR imports, and local clinical RAG search.
Can I use OpenClinic for patient care or diagnostic decisions?
No. OpenClinic is currently an architectural playground and software design concept. It is not production-hardened, is not a substitute for clinical judgment, and is not certified for patient care. It is intended for developer exploration and testing.
How do I test the app without an EHR connection?
On first launch, OpenClinic automatically seeds a local demo database containing mock patients, medical histories, and sample appointments. You can explore the charts, capture photos, and run local clinical searches immediately.
How do I import live patient data using SMART on FHIR?
- Navigate to Settings → Live SMART / EHR Import.
- Verify or enter a SMART-compatible FHIR base URL (the default Sandbox URL is preloaded).
- Tap sign-in. An ASWebAuthenticationSession popup will open for sandbox authentication.
- Select a test patient and authorize access.
- Return to the app and review the imported records, which are styled with EHR provenance badges.
My dictation isn't working. What should I do?
OpenClinic uses iOS Speech recognition for encounter notes. Ensure that you have granted OpenClinic access to both the **Microphone** and **Speech Recognition** in iOS Settings → Privacy.
What are the 7 safety verification gates?
Every response synthesized by on-device clinical RAG is audited against seven checks: retrieval confidence, evidence coverage, numeric sanity, contradiction check, semantic grounding, quote faithfulness, and generation quality. These roll up into a confidence tier displayed in the UI.
App Reviewer Instructions
- No account required: Testing can be done fully with mock data loaded on startup.
- Permissions: Please grant camera, microphone, and speech recognition access when prompted to test clinical imaging and dictation.
- EHR import validation: Use the default preconfigured SMART sandbox URL to test OAuth flows securely.
