What Is This Tool?
A discharge summary is one of the most important documents you leave the hospital with — and one of the densest. DoctorDocs' Discharge Summary Reader extracts the text from a photo or PDF and organises it so you can clearly see your diagnosis, the medicines you were sent home with, and your follow-up plan.
How It Works
Discharge summaries follow a recognisable structure — admission/discharge dates, diagnosis, procedures done, medications on discharge, and follow-up instructions. This tool pulls the text from each section (printed or scanned) and keeps that structure intact instead of flattening it, including the discharge-medication table where one is present.
Key Capabilities
Multi-page PDF support
Discharge summaries are often 3-8 pages. Each page is processed and combined into a single, structured output.
Section-aware extraction
Preserves the structure of admission dates, diagnosis, procedures, medications on discharge, and follow-up instructions.
Medication table preservation
Where the layout is clear, discharge medication tables are kept intact with drug names, dosages, and frequencies aligned.
Zero data retention
Your hospital records contain sensitive PHI. Core processing is in-browser; advanced extraction uses a zero-retention pipeline.
How to Use
Upload the summary
Upload the discharge summary as a photo or PDF. Multi-page PDFs are fully supported — all pages are processed together.
Text extraction with structure
The text is extracted with the section layout preserved — diagnosis, medications, and follow-up are kept separate.
Review medication list
Carefully review the medication list and follow-up dates. Verify everything against the original physical document.
Copy, download, or share
Copy the organised text, download it, or open in the editor to share with a family doctor for continuity of care.
Common Use Cases
- Patients & familiesKeep a clear, readable record of what happened during the hospital stay and what to do next at home.
- Follow-up doctorsGet a typed version of the discharge summary instead of squinting at a scan — saves time during follow-up appointments.
- Insurance & reimbursementExtract dates, diagnosis codes, and procedure text from the summary for insurance claim forms.
- Elder care coordinationMaintain an ordered, searchable history across multiple hospital admissions for an elderly family member.
Accuracy & Limitations
Typed and printed summaries extract very accurately. Scanned or photographed copies depend on image quality. Always verify all medication names, dosages, and follow-up dates against the original document — a misread date or dose on a discharge summary has real consequences. This tool does not interpret your clinical condition.
Privacy & Security
Files are processed without permanent storage; advanced extraction is zero-retention. Your discharge summary is never stored on our servers.
Frequently Asked Questions
What information does it extract from discharge summaries?
The OCR engine extracts all text including admission date, discharge date, diagnoses, procedures performed, medications at discharge, follow-up instructions, dietary recommendations, activity restrictions, and emergency contact information from hospital discharge documents.
Who uses this tool professionally?
Home health nurses digitize discharge instructions for patient care coordination. Primary care physicians extract hospital treatment details for continuity of care documentation. Insurance companies process discharge summaries for inpatient claims review.
Can it handle multi-page discharge summaries?
Yes. Process each page individually and combine the extracted text. For complex multi-page summaries, photograph each page separately under good lighting for optimal OCR accuracy across all sections of the document.
Is discharge data kept private?
Yes. All processing happens locally in your browser. Hospital discharge summaries containing sensitive medical history and treatment details are never uploaded to any server.
