Middleburg Heights, Ohio-based Southwest General has reduced average EHR time per patient by 18.6% and after-hours work by 14.15% after implementing Oracle Health’s Clinical AI Agent.

In the year since deployment, clinicians generated approximately 81,000 notes using the AI tool, which creates structured documentation from patient-provider conversations, according to an April 7 news release from Oracle. 

Southwest General deployed the tool across 18 ambulatory specialties to reduce documentation burden and allow clinicians to spend more time with patients. The tool is integrated into the EHR, and the hospital plans to expand the use of the AI tool to additional workflows, including chart search, order creation and nursing documentation, the release said.
