Camden, N.J.-based Cooper University Health Care has saved time and reduced clinician burnout with Microsoft’s Dragon Copilot ambient AI scribe.
Here are five takeaways from a Dec. 15 Microsoft news release:
1. The AI clinical documentation tool is saving Cooper clinicians 4.15 minutes per patient, according to a Microsoft survey of 30 users in fall 2025.
2. The providers are cutting documentation time by upward of an hour a day each, the three-hospital system estimated.
3. Some clinicians are adding extra patients to their schedules because of the time gains.
4. Providers report they’re feeling less burnt out and “engaging more meaningfully with patients.”
5. The technology also “allows for cleaner handoffs,” and “patients feel that all the members of the clinical team are actually working in sync,” stated Snehal Gandhi, MD, vice president and chief medical information officer at Cooper.
