About Ask Orkie
🐋
What is Ask Orkie?
▼
Ask Orkie is a patient-facing service powered by OORCAS, a patented clinical expert system. You upload your medical records and receive a report identifying findings across 46 medical specialties — medication interactions, trending lab values, missing follow-ups, screening gaps, and more. Every finding is backed by a published clinical guideline.
🤖
Is this AI? Does it hallucinate?
▼
OORCAS is a symbolic reasoning engine — not a chatbot, not generative AI. It evaluates your chart against a library of peer-reviewed clinical rules, making decisions based on what your records actually contain. It does not guess, predict, or hallucinate. Every finding traces to a specific published guideline you can verify.
🩺
Is the report a diagnosis?
▼
No. The report is a structured review of your chart against published clinical guidelines. It's designed to give you specific, evidence-based talking points for a more informed conversation with your doctor. Always discuss findings with a qualified clinician before making any healthcare decisions.
Your Records
📋
What medical records do I need?
▼
Lab results, medication lists, imaging reports, and discharge summaries. The best single source is your patient portal's "Download Health Record" — one file with your labs, medications, and diagnoses. You can also upload PDFs from LabCorp, Quest, or your hospital. The more you include, the more thorough your report.
⌚
Can I include wearable or at-home test data?
▼
Yes. You can upload data from wearable devices like Apple Watch, Samsung Health, or Fitbit, as well as results from at-home testing kits — blood pressure monitors, glucose meters, pulse oximeters, and more. Orkie evaluates this data against the same peer-reviewed clinical guidelines used for your medical records, so it becomes part of your complete picture.
