🚀 The Full Setup (Under 60 Seconds)

Step 1: Install the DeepCura Chrome Extension

Open the DeepCura Chrome Web Store listing and click Add to Chrome. Pin the DeepCura icon to your browser toolbar so it is always visible next to Practice Fusion.

Step 2: Sign In to the Extension

Click the pinned DeepCura icon and sign in with Google SSO or your email and password. If you do not have an account yet, you can create one in the same flow. No credit card required — a free trial is included.

Step 3: Open Practice Fusion in the Same Browser Window

Load Practice Fusion in a tab in the same Chrome window. The DeepCura extension runs alongside Practice Fusion — you will trigger it from the toolbar icon while the patient chart is open.

Step 4: Enable Smart Pace Mode and Click "Start Patient"

Inside the extension, toggle Smart Pace Mode on and click Start Patient. Dictate the encounter in natural language — or record a live patient conversation. No special phrasing, no section headers to announce, no macros.

Step 5: Click "Complete" and Paste into Practice Fusion

Click Complete. DeepCura auto-structures the dictation into a clean SOAP note (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, Plan). Copy the output and paste it into Practice Fusion's note field in the appropriate section. Done.

💡 Example: A Sore-Throat Visit in Two Clicks

Here is exactly what the provider in the video demo does — a 20-year-old female with a sore throat, the kind of encounter every primary care and urgent care clinician sees 5-10 times per day.

Click 1: Start Patient — the provider dictates naturally:

"Patient is a 20-year-old female here for a sore throat that started 3 days ago. She says it hurts more when she swallows and she's also had some mild fatigue, no fever, cough, or runny nose. She's been drinking tea and taking Tylenol, which helps a bit. On exam, throat is red with mild swelling, no pus on the tonsils, no swollen lymph nodes, vitals are normal. Likely viral pharyngitis, doesn't look like strep. Plan is rest, fluids, and continue Tylenol as needed. No antibiotics today. Tell her to come back if symptoms worsen or don't improve in a few days."

Click 2: Complete — DeepCura auto-structures the dictation into a clean SOAP note:

  • S (Subjective): 20-year-old female presents with sore throat x 3 days, worse with swallowing, mild fatigue. Denies fever, cough, rhinorrhea. Has been using tea and Tylenol with partial relief.
  • O (Objective): Vitals WNL. Oropharynx erythematous with mild swelling. No tonsillar exudate. No cervical lymphadenopathy.
  • A (Assessment): Likely viral pharyngitis. Low clinical suspicion for streptococcal infection.
  • P (Plan): Supportive care — rest, fluids, continue Tylenol PRN. No antibiotics indicated. Return precautions discussed.

Paste into Practice Fusion's note field and the encounter is documented.

⚠️ Important: Editing Before Saving in Practice Fusion

Before clicking Save in Practice Fusion after pasting your note, you must make a small edit (add a period, comma, letter, or short sentence) in any section (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, or Plan). If you click Save without making any manual edit, Practice Fusion may not save the note and the content could be lost. This is a Practice Fusion behavior, not a DeepCura one.

🤔 Why Is This a Lightweight Integration (Honest Disclosure)

Unlike DeepCura's integrations with athenahealth, Epic, eClinicalWorks, and AdvancedMD — which use native FHIR APIs for bidirectional structured data — DeepCura's Practice Fusion integration is a Chrome-extension-based paste-in workflow, not a native API push.

Practice Fusion does not publish a public FHIR API for third-party AI scribes the way Epic, athenahealth, and eClinicalWorks do. Chart notes, problem lists, and medications are accessible only inside the Practice Fusion web app. No AI scribe on the market has a native bidirectional API integration with Practice Fusion, because no such API exists for clinical documentation.

For a cloud-native EHR like Practice Fusion, a Chrome-extension-based paste workflow is actually simpler: no activation code, no per-provider enablement, no IT coordination, no silent import failures. You see the exact note before it enters the chart.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best AI scribe for Practice Fusion?

For most solo and small-practice Practice Fusion users, DeepCura is the best AI scribe in 2026. It is purpose-built for a two-click, zero-training workflow at $65/month — the lowest-priced full-feature AI scribe on the market. For a full ranking, see the Best AI Medical Scribes in 2026 comparison.

Does DeepCura integrate with Practice Fusion via API?

No — and no other AI scribe does either. Practice Fusion does not publish a public FHIR API for third-party AI scribes. DeepCura uses a Chrome extension that runs inside Chrome alongside your Practice Fusion tab, generates a fully structured SOAP note, and lets you paste it directly into Practice Fusion's note field. This is the standard approach for every AI scribe on Practice Fusion.

Do I need to train the AI or learn any macros?

No. DeepCura has zero training requirements, zero macros, and zero templates to configure. The only one-time setup step is installing the DeepCura Chrome Extension from the Chrome Web Store and signing in — a 30-second, one-time configuration.

What is Smart Pace Mode?

Smart Pace Mode is DeepCura's real-time dictation engine that waits for natural pauses in your narration instead of cutting off mid-sentence. You can dictate freely, pause to examine the patient, return to narration, and the scribe keeps pace without repeated Start/Stop clicks.

Can I record a live patient conversation instead of dictating?

Yes. DeepCura supports both ambient recording of live patient conversations and provider dictation. Toggle between modes in the extension.

What browsers are supported?

The DeepCura Chrome Extension supports any Chromium-based browser — Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, and Arc. Firefox and Safari are not currently supported for the Practice Fusion workflow.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. DeepCura offers a free trial with no credit card required. Sign up at app.deepcura.com/register or install the Chrome Extension and sign up inside the extension.
