Steps within Lyrebird:
Log in to Lyrebird and select the Document Sorter button from the navigation tab to access the Document Sorter Import Page.
Find your relevant PDF patient document and upload. Once uploaded, Lyrebird will extract the key fields from the document and will assess whether this patient exists within your Best Practice data base. Documents will appear in the import queue with their relevant details already detected.
Note* If the patient name detected is incorrect you can click select different patient and search for the relevant file.
From the import queue, select the document. Select where you wish the document to be sent: Doctors inbox or Patient Profile. Then ensure all fields including Patient Details & User (Doctor) are correct before verifying the document.
Next, under the "Store In" section, select where you want this file to sit.
Click "Verify".
Once verified, click "Auto Import Documents" and on the pop up click "Send to Best Practice".
Steps within Best Practice:
Open your Inbox.
The documents imported will then be listed on the left hand side and sorted by patient. Clicking on this date will then open the document you imported.
Viewing History:
To view previously sent documents, go to the "History" tab.
Clicking on a document shows all extracted fields and where it was stored in Best Practice.

How To Upload Documents:
Email Forwarding
You can now forward documents directly into Document Sorter using a dedicated email address.
To Enable Click Enable on email Forwarding Once Enabled you will see the following: A dedicated email address will be pre-created for your organisation. Any documents sent to this address will be automatically uploaded to Document Sorter. Underneath you can enter the email addresses your documents will be sent from (Eg: [email protected]).
Please also ensure the domain is entered also. Please ensure that the listed email addresses or domains have SPF and DKIM configured, otherwise Lyrebird will drop these emails and not process the contents. Simply forward your emails to your organisation's dedicated email address (Listed under Your Email Address).
Lyrebird Health's document sorter will process your email body and any attachments, adding them to the import queue for review and validation upon login. The email body will be saved as a separate PDF, with the option to merge it with your attachments into a single document. From there, everything follows the standard upload workflow routing to the relevant doctor's inbox or patient file.
