FAQS
At RosettaMD, we believe no one should be left in the dark when it comes to their health. This FAQ answers the most common questions about how RosettaMD works — and decodes confusing medical terms found in MyChart notes, lab results, and doctor reports.
SECTION 1: About RosettaMD (Brand + Trust)
Q: What is RosettaMD?
A: RosettaMD is a free AI-powered tool that instantly translates complex medical notes — including MyChart entries, lab results, and discharge summaries — into plain English you can understand.
Q: Why was RosettaMD created?
A: After helping his brother navigate overwhelming hospital records, our founder Dr. Chris Wixon realized most Americans are left in the dark by confusing medical language. RosettaMD was built to fix that.
Q: Who is behind RosettaMD?
A: RosettaMD was created by a physician and physicist with a background in clinical natural language processing. It’s part of Archimedes Medical, a health-tech company focused on human-first AI.
Q: Is RosettaMD a medical app?
A: No. It’s a web-based translation tool — think of it as Google Translate for doctor notes. You upload your document, and RosettaMD returns a plain-language summary, instantly.
Q: Is RosettaMD safe to use?
A: Yes. RosettaMD does not store or share your health information. Nothing is saved. Your data is processed securely and immediately discarded.
Q: Do I need an account to use RosettaMD?
A: No accounts. No logins. No emails. Just clarity — instantly and anonymously.
📄 SECTION 2: How It Works (Product Functionality)
Q: What types of medical notes can I upload?
A: MyChart notes, blood test results, radiology reports, discharge summaries, after-visit summaries, EHR exports — RosettaMD can translate any of them.
Q: Can RosettaMD translate PDF files?
A: Yes. Just drag and drop your file. You’ll receive a readable, simplified version in seconds.
Q: Can I use it for pediatric notes or records about my child?
A: Absolutely. RosettaMD can help parents understand pediatric lab results, imaging reports, and hospital notes.
Q: Does it work on mobile?
A: Yes — RosettaMD is fully mobile-optimized. You can use it from any phone, tablet, or desktop browser.
Q: Does it give medical advice?
A: No. RosettaMD explains your records, but it is not a substitute for medical advice. Always consult your doctor for decisions.
Q: Can I use RosettaMD outside the U.S.?
A: Yes — but the tool is optimized for U.S. healthcare terminology (e.g., MyChart, U.S. lab codes). It may still work for international notes depending on formatting.
📊 SECTION 3: Understanding Medical Jargon (SEO Fuel)
These FAQs target long-tail searches like “what does this term mean?”
Q: What does “unremarkable” mean in a doctor’s note?
Q: What does “effusion” mean on a scan?
Q: What does CBC stand for in a lab result?
Q: What does “acute” mean — should I be worried?
Q: What does “impression” mean in an MRI report?
Q: What does “no acute findings” mean?
Q: What does “differential diagnosis” mean?
Q: What does “follow up as needed” actually mean?
Q: What does “rule out pneumonia” mean?
These are written in FAQ format because that’s exactly how people search. Each answer will be 1–2 sentences long and link to RosettaMD’s core value: translation and clarity.
📌 SECTION 4: Health Literacy, Privacy & Values
Q: What is health literacy?
A: Health literacy is the ability to understand health information well enough to make informed decisions. Only 12% of U.S. adults are considered health literate — RosettaMD was built to change that.
Q: Why does this matter?
A: People with high health literacy are:
31% less likely to be hospitalized
19% more likely to follow their treatment plans
40% more likely to attend follow-up care
Q: Does RosettaMD keep or use my data?
A: No. Your documents are never stored, logged, or shared. You upload, RosettaMD translates, and it’s gone.
Q: Is this HIPAA-compliant?
A: While RosettaMD doesn’t process data on behalf of healthcare entities, it uses HIPAA-respecting practices: encryption, no data storage, and no third-party access.
