What is the Community Template Library?

The Scribe Community Template Library is a collection of note templates created and shared by verified Doximity clinicians. Every template submitted to the library is reviewed by a Doximity medical fellow for clinical accuracy before it is published. You can preview any template, add it to your personal library, and start using it immediately or customize it further to fit your workflow.

 Currently available on the Doximity website (desktop). Mobile support coming soon.

How do I browse and apply a community template?

There are two ways to access community templates:

  • From the Template Library, go to New Template > Browse Community Templates
  • Or toggle your view from My Templates to Community Templates

To apply a community template:

  • Sort by Most Popular, Newest, Oldest, Title (A-Z), or Title (Z-A).
  • Click a template to preview its structure.
  • Click "Save template" to add it to your template library.

The template will now appear in your template library and as a drop down the next time you start a Scribe session. You can also edit the template after adding it: open it from Template library > My templates > Edit, make adjustments, and save.

Note: Sharing templates to the community library is only available on the Doximity website at this time.

How are submitted templates reviewed?

All templates submitted to the Community Template Library are reviewed by a Doximity Medical Fellow before they are published. This review process is designed to ensure that templates are clinically accurate and appropriate for use in patient documentation. If a template needs revisions, we'll reach out via email with suggestions.
