Questions
Questions about R4.
Does Assist connect to R4?
No. Assist does not connect to or log into R4, and needs no access to it. You copy the finished note across yourself.
Does it need my login?
No. Assist never asks for your R4 login and cannot see anything inside it.
Can I use it split screen on one monitor?
Yes. Assist runs in a browser tab, so it can sit side by side with R4 on one screen or in its own window.
Is it for NHS use?
Assist is currently for private practice use.
