How to Draft an Optometry Referral Letter from Notes
Referral drafts invent acuities. De-identify first. Leave IOP NOT IN NOTES when blank.
The matching generator is the Optometry Referral Letter from De-Identified Notes (Not Medical Advice) prompt. Browse related cards in the PromptDig library (Browse more prompts). When a filled run survives, share the version you actually use (Share a prompt).
Print not-medical-advice and de-identify banner
Draft an optometry referral letter from de-identified notes. Not medical advice. Never invent diagnoses, acuities, or IOPs. Start by filling Inputs, not by asking the model to remember last week's run. If a field is blank, write NONE or NOT IN INPUTS and leave it blank through Generate. The card is built so the model cannot honestly invent a number, owner, URL, or command that you did not paste.
Paste these fields before you hit run:
De-identified notes: [Notes]
Referring role I allow: [Role]
Receiving clinic I allow (or UNKNOWN): [Clinic]
Words I must not use: [Banned]
What I must never invent: [Never]
Output format: [Format]
Language: [Lang]
Banner I require: [Banner or Not medical advice]
That inventory is the honesty ledger. Anything that does not appear there is forbidden in the draft. If you catch yourself adding a nice-to-have after the run, you are no longer using the card. You are ghostwriting. Put the extra fact in Inputs and run again.
Quote reason for referral from notes only
Generate is numbered on purpose. Do not skip a step because the first paragraph looked done. The early steps exist to stop later prose from smuggling claims.
Walk the Generate list in order:
- Honesty ledger: Notes nouns, Role, Clinic, Banner, Lang.
- Banner and de-identify reminder.
- Letter skeleton: date UNKNOWN if missing, Clinic or CLINIC UNKNOWN, reason for referral quoted from Notes.
- Findings: only values in Notes. Missing acuity/IOP: NOT IN NOTES.
- Ask: what is requested of the receiving clinic, only if Notes state it.
- Refuse: inventing ICD codes, inventing prescriptions, inventing patient identifiers.
- Attachment list: only attachments named in Notes or NONE.
- Compliance pass: Banned and Never. Format as Format.
If a step asks for a version lock, quote the version from Inputs in the output. If a step asks for a refuse list, keep the refuse list in the published artifact, not in a sidebar you delete. Reviewers should see what the model was not allowed to do.
Leave missing acuity and IOP blank
Most failures are the same shape: a missing field gets a confident fill. A conversion rate appears. A Gradle task appears. A flash point appears. A caption appears on a job that asked for slide text only. Your review is to search the draft for numbers, names, and commands, then grep Inputs. No match means cut.
Honor the constraints as hard stops, not vibes:
- Referral draft from Notes only. Not medical advice.
- Never invent diagnoses, acuities, or IOPs.
- Keep Banner visible.
- No emojis.
When the card says not legal advice, not certification, not an exam dump, or not a caption engine, that sentence belongs at the top of the output. Deleting it to look more finished is how you inherit risk.
Refuse invented ICD codes and PHI
Finish with the compliance pass the prompt already asks for. Quote the banned-word hits. Cut them. Print character counts when the job has a cap. Print word counts when the job has a budget. List gaps as gaps. Five missing facts are more useful than one smooth paragraph.
Tags on the card (optometry referral letter, de-identified notes not medical advice, optometry referral draft template) are a reminder of the job shape, not an invitation to wander into a neighboring cluster. If you need a different surface, open a different PromptDig card rather than stretching this one.
Fill the card, then run
Replace every bracket. Run on ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini. Read the ledger first, then the artifact. If the model invents a commit, KPI, DOI, PEL, bid, or logo, discard the run. Tighten Inputs. Run again. Share the filled card that survived, not the first draft that sounded done.
