Operative Notes
Transform brief post-op voice updates into complete, compliant, specialty-specific operative reports in seconds. Zero typing required.
Included in all Standard & Professional plans. Works with any EHR.
The Traditional Way
The NovaScribe Way
Select a pre-built Global Note Template for common procedures, or customize your own surgical templates by specialty.
Open the NovaScribe mobile app or web portal and speak naturally, as if updating a surgical colleague: "Right ankle ORIF for bimalleolar fracture at ankle mortise. Used 4 screws proximally, 2 distally. Minimal blood loss."
NovaScribe applies preferred structures, CPT logic, intraoperative deviations, and billing elements into a polished report, ready to paste into any EHR.
Two ways to work: start from a ready-made global template, or build your own for the operations you do most.
Access ready-to-use global templates for standard procedures across all major surgical specialties, complete with pre-linked CPT codes and dynamic AI text fields. Duplicate any global template to customize it for your exact workflow.

Build custom templates for your most frequent operations. Categorize by surgical field (Hand, Shoulder, Ortho, General), assign internal identifiers, and set standardized note structures that adapt to your personal voice.

Save hours every week. Keep a searchable history of all operative reports in NovaScribe for easy batch transferring to your EHR.
Summarize your case while walking to the cafeteria, resting in the lounge, or prepping for the next patient.
NovaScribe learns your speaking style, surgical abbreviations, and cadence. It is built by practicing physicians who understand surgical terminology.
One-tap copy and export, without lengthy IT integrations, complex installations, or EHR permissions.
Automatic incorporation of intraoperative deviations, preferred structures, and billing-compliant language.
Operative Note automation is fully included in our Standard and Professional tiers at no additional cost. Toggle between clinical encounter notes and operative reports with a single click.
Join your fellow surgeons turning seconds of speech into perfect, billing-ready operative notes.
