compounding-record

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Write a compounding worksheet and record that reproduces the preparation exactly and survives inspection — formula, calculations shown, components with lot numbers, in-process checks, and the beyond-use date with its basis. Use when asked to document a compounded preparation, write a master formulation record, create a compounding worksheet, or prepare compounding documentation for inspection. Produces the master formula, the batch record, the component and lot table, in-process checks, labelling, and the beyond-use-date rationale. Documentation only; standards and stability data must come from current official references.

wonsukchoi/domain-experts

Use when a task needs the judgment of a podiatrist — staging a diabetic foot ulcer and deciding whether debridement is safe, screening for loss of protective sensation and peripheral arterial disease before a treatment plan, choosing offloading vs surgical correction for a foot/ankle deformity, or interpreting a gait/biomechanical exam against a recurrent-ulceration or overuse-injury pattern.

dental-clinical-note

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Write a dental chart note that survives an insurance audit, a recall years later, and a colleague picking up the case cold — the finding, the justification, the consent conversation, and the materials, in the order a reviewer looks for them. Use when asked to write a chart note, document a procedure, improve clinical documentation, or when a claim was denied for insufficient documentation. Produces a structured note with subjective, objective, assessment and plan, the medical necessity justification, consent documented, materials and lot numbers, and the next-visit plan. Documentation support only; the clinical content is the treating clinician's.

dental-emergency-triage

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Triage a dental emergency call so the right patient is seen today and the rest are safely scheduled — the red flags that are medical rather than dental, the questions that sort urgency, and the interim advice a receptionist can safely give. Use when asked to triage a dental emergency, decide who to fit in today, write phone triage guidance for front desk, or when a patient calls with swelling, trauma, or severe pain. Produces the urgency banding, the question script, the red-flag escalation list, interim self-care within scope, and the documentation line. Triage support only; never a diagnosis, and airway or spreading-infection signs go to emergency care immediately.

dental-insurance-preauth

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Write a dental pre-authorisation request or claim narrative that gets approved the first time — the diagnosis, the documented failure of lesser treatment, and the attachments a reviewer needs, assembled in the order they assess them. Use when asked to write a pre-auth, submit a predetermination, appeal a denied dental claim, or write a narrative for a crown, implant, or perio case. Produces the narrative, the supporting-evidence checklist, the attachment list, and an appeal letter if the claim was already denied. Administrative support only; clinical justification must come from the treating clinician's own findings.

dental-referral-letter

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Write a dental referral letter a specialist can act on without ringing you back — the question you are actually asking, the findings and images that support it, and what you have already tried. Use when asked to write a referral to an endodontist, oral surgeon, periodontist or orthodontist, refer a patient to a specialist, or when a referral was returned for more information. Produces the referral letter, the attachment list, the urgency marker, and the patient-facing explanation. Communication support only; the clinical assessment and the decision to refer are the referring clinician's.

treatment-plan-presentation

mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills

Present a dental treatment plan the patient actually understands and accepts — sequenced by clinical priority, costed with their coverage applied, and explained in the order that answers what-is-wrong before what-it-costs. Use when asked to present a treatment plan, improve case acceptance, explain treatment to a patient, or handle a patient who says they want to think about it. Produces the phased plan, the plain-language explanation per phase, the cost and coverage breakdown, the consequences-of-delay framing, and responses to the four common objections. Clinical decisions remain the treating clinician's; this shapes the conversation, not the diagnosis.

wonsukchoi/domain-experts

Use when a task needs the judgment of a podiatrist — staging a diabetic foot ulcer and deciding whether debridement is safe, screening for loss of protective sensation and peripheral arterial disease before a treatment plan, choosing offloading vs surgical correction for a foot/ankle deformity, or interpreting a gait/biomechanical exam against a recurrent-ulceration or overuse-injury pattern.
