Run the generate_template.py script in the scripts directory with a template type argument, such as --type general_medical or --type one_page. The script outputs a customizable LaTeX file that you fill in with de-identified patient information and compile with pdflatex.

Seven LaTeX templates are included: one-page quick-reference, general medical, rehabilitation, mental health, chronic disease management, perioperative care, and pain management. The one-page format is preferred for straightforward cases, while standard templates target 3-4 pages.

Run check_completeness.py on your .tex file to verify all ten required sections are present, SMART goal criteria are addressed, HIPAA notices exist, and no placeholders remain. The script returns an overall completeness score and exit code for automation.

Templates include HIPAA Safe Harbor de-identification guidance requiring removal of all 18 identifiers, such as exact ages, dates, and geographic details. Validation scripts check for HIPAA notices, but final compliance review remains the clinician's responsibility.

Templates require standard packages including tcolorbox, geometry, longtable, booktabs, enumitem, and fancyhdr. The optional medical_treatment_plan.sty style file adds colored box environments and requires XeLaTeX compilation with fontspec.

Use the one-page format for straightforward cases and standard protocols where a quick-reference card suffices. Choose standard 3-4 page templates only when clinical complexity, multiple comorbidities, or multidisciplinary coordination genuinely requires additional detail.
