General Questions

Common questions about Arbor Genie and how we work.

What is Arbor Genie?

Arbor Genie builds AI-powered tools for independent medical practices. We're founded by the team behind Arbor Eyecare, an ophthalmology and optometry practice in the Snoqualmie Valley. We build tools to solve problems we've experienced firsthand — starting with fax automation and patient visit prep.

Who is behind Arbor Genie?

Arbor Genie was founded by Chris Dale, MD MPH and Rebecca Dale, MD. Chris brings healthcare data and technology expertise; Becca brings clinical operations and practice management experience as the owner of Arbor Eyecare. Learn more on our About page.

What practices do you work with?

Our products are currently designed for eyecare practices. Fax Genie works with practices that receive medical faxes (which is most of them). Yellow Sheet Genie is built specifically for practices using Eyefinity Encompass. We're always interested in hearing from practices that could benefit from our tools — get in touch.

How do you handle patient data and HIPAA compliance?

It depends on the product. Each product has a different architecture and different data handling requirements — see the product-specific sections below for details. In general, we take patient privacy seriously and design our products with HIPAA compliance in mind from the start.

Fax Genie

Intelligent medical fax automation for independent practices.

What is Fax Genie?

Fax Genie is an AI-powered fax management system that receives incoming medical faxes, identifies the document type, extracts key information, and routes them to the right person — turning hours of manual sorting into seconds of automated triage.

How does Fax Genie work?

When a fax arrives, Fax Genie reads the document using AI, classifies it (referral, prior auth, medical records, prescription refill, etc.), extracts the relevant details, and presents a clean summary on a dashboard for your team to review. Your staff approves the suggested action — Fax Genie handles the busywork, your team stays in control.

What types of faxes does it handle?

Fax Genie handles the most common fax types in eyecare and medical practices:

  • Incoming referrals — patient identified, insurance noted, scheduling task created
  • Medical records — filed in the chart with an AI summary
  • Prior authorizations — auth details extracted and status tracked
  • Contact lens verifications — Rx verified and response sent within compliance timelines
  • Prescription refills — Rx verified, last exam checked, routed for provider approval
  • Junk fax filtering — spam and sales pitches filtered before they reach your team

How does Fax Genie handle patient data?

Fax Genie processes fax data through secure cloud infrastructure. Because it receives and processes PHI on your behalf, we execute a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with every practice we work with. Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and access is strictly controlled.

Do I need a BAA for Fax Genie?

Yes. Because Fax Genie receives, stores, and processes PHI in the cloud, a BAA is required. We provide one as part of onboarding — it's a standard part of getting set up.

What fax systems does it work with?

Fax Genie is designed to integrate with your existing fax infrastructure. Specific setup depends on your fax provider and workflow. Contact us and we'll walk you through compatibility for your practice.

How accurate is the AI classification?

Fax Genie correctly classifies and processes over 80% of faxes fully automatically. The remainder are flagged for human review. Every fax is reviewable on the dashboard, so your team always has full visibility — no black boxes.

How do I get started with Fax Genie?

Fax Genie is set up in partnership with your practice. Get in touch and we'll schedule a conversation to understand your workflow and get you up and running.

Something isn't working right with Fax Genie. What should I do?

If faxes aren't being processed as expected or you're seeing errors on the dashboard, contact us with a description of what you're seeing. Include the fax date and any details that would help us track it down. We typically respond within one business day.

Yellow Sheet Genie

Chrome extension for automated patient visit prep sheets.

What is Yellow Sheet Genie?

Yellow Sheet Genie is a Chrome extension that generates patient visit prep sheets for eyecare practices using the Eyefinity Encompass platform. It pulls demographics, benefits, Rx history, and clinical details from the pages your front desk is already viewing and assembles them into a printable sheet.

What EHR/EPM does it work with?

Yellow Sheet Genie is designed specifically for Eyefinity Encompass (both the EPM and EHR). It does not currently support other practice management systems.

Is my patient data safe?

Yes. Yellow Sheet Genie runs 100% locally in your Chrome browser. No patient data is ever sent to Arbor Genie or any external server. There is no cloud component, no database, and no analytics. All data processing happens on your local machine. See our privacy policy for full details.

Do I need a BAA?

No. A Business Associate Agreement is required when a vendor receives, stores, or processes PHI on your behalf. Yellow Sheet Genie never does any of that — all patient data stays on your local workstation. Arbor Genie has no access to your patient data at any point.

How do I install the extension?

Yellow Sheet Genie is available through the Chrome Web Store. Click "Add to Chrome" and follow the prompts. Once installed, the extension icon will appear in your Chrome toolbar. Click it to open the side panel while viewing Eyefinity Encompass.

The extension isn't extracting data. What should I do?

Make sure you are on a supported Eyefinity Encompass page (either the EPM or EHR). The extension only activates on specific domains. If the issue persists, try the following:

  • Refresh the Eyefinity page and reopen the extension
  • Check that the extension is enabled in Chrome's extension settings (chrome://extensions)
  • Make sure Chrome is up to date
  • If the problem continues, contact us with a description of what you're seeing

Can I customize the prep sheet layout?

Yellow Sheet Genie was originally built for our own practice, Arbor Eyecare, and the layout reflects our workflow. If you're interested in a customized version for your practice, get in touch and we'll see what we can do.

Does it work on other browsers?

Yellow Sheet Genie is a Chrome extension and requires Google Chrome. It may also work in Chromium-based browsers (such as Microsoft Edge), but it is only tested and supported on Chrome.

How do I uninstall the extension?

Right-click the Yellow Sheet Genie icon in your Chrome toolbar and select "Remove from Chrome." Alternatively, go to chrome://extensions, find Yellow Sheet Genie, and click "Remove." All locally stored data is deleted when the extension is removed.
