Perplexity

Query patient histories with LlamaIndex

Instead of reading a single transcript, you use this MCP integration to pull every past Abridge encounter via `get_clinical_notes`. Your application takes those structured summaries and physical exams, then embeds them into a vector store. This turns static medical records into a semantic search engine. When a physician asks about a patient's historical response to Lisinopril, your RAG system queries the index instead of guessing. The answers come strictly from the actual API data generated by Abridge.

Index live medical audio processing

Your LlamaIndex application calls `create_recording` to push the raw patient encounter directly to the Abridge API. From there, the system waits for the processing task to finish. You can set up a background task that periodically checks `get_recording_status`. Once the status flips to completed, your RAG pipeline automatically pulls the new notes and updates the specific patient's vector index in real time.

Build grounded medical assessment tools via MCP Server

By connecting this Abridge MCP Server, you guarantee your agents only reason over verified clinical documentation. The tools provide exact sections like the history of present illness and the assessment plan. Your LlamaIndex FunctionAgent reads these specific sections to answer complex clinical queries. If a user asks for the current treatment plan, the agent fetches the exact text from the latest processed recording, ensuring absolute accuracy.

Setup guide

Set up Abridge (AI Clinical Documentation API) MCP in LlamaIndex

Prerequisites

Python 3.10+ installed
llama-index-tools-mcp package
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Install dependencies
Run pip install llama-index-tools-mcp llama-index-llms-openai. The MCP tools package provides BasicMCPClient and McpToolSpec.
2

Connect with BasicMCPClient
Point BasicMCPClient to your Vinkius endpoint URL. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your token from cloud.vinkius.com. Supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports.
3

Convert to LlamaIndex tools
Call mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async() to convert all Abridge (AI Clinical Documentation API) MCP tools into native FunctionTool objects that any LlamaIndex agent can use.
4

Run with any LLM
Create a FunctionAgent with the tools and your preferred LLM. Swap OpenAI for Anthropic, Gemini, or any LlamaIndex-supported provider.

agent.py

from llama_index.tools.mcp import BasicMCPClient, McpToolSpec
from llama_index.core.agent.workflow import FunctionAgent
from llama_index.llms.openai import OpenAI

# Connect to the MCP
mcp_client = BasicMCPClient(
    "https://edge.vinkius.com/[YOUR_TOKEN_HERE]/mcp"
)
mcp_tool_spec = McpToolSpec(client=mcp_client)

# Convert MCP tools to LlamaIndex tools
tools = await mcp_tool_spec.to_tool_list_async()

# Create and run the agent
agent = FunctionAgent(
    tools=tools,
    llm=OpenAI(model="gpt-4o"),
    system_prompt="You have access to Abridge (AI Clinical Documentation API) tools.",
)
response = await agent.run("List recent Abridge (AI Clinical Documentation API) data")

Common questions about Abridge (AI Clinical Documentation API) MCP in LlamaIndex

Install `llama-index-tools-mcp` via pip. Initialize a `BasicMCPClient` with your Vinkius URL, then convert it using `McpToolSpec` before passing the MCP tools to your FunctionAgent.

Yes. You write a script that fetches the notes, splits the structured sections like HPI and assessment, and creates document nodes for your vector store.

Your agent must call the status tool repeatedly. Once the API returns a completed status, you trigger the indexing function to pull the final text.

Yes. The notes tool returns distinct sections. Your data ingestion pipeline can choose to only embed the assessment plan while ignoring the raw summary.

The raw audio and resulting medical notes are highly sensitive. The server operates inside a zero-trust environment where the connection drops and memory clears the second your API request completes.
