Through the partnership, John Muir clinicians will be able to record their patient visits with Ambience Autoscribe and edit the AI-generated notes directly within Epic. The integration, which was built in two weeks, is currently saving John Muir clinicians one to two hours per day in documentation work, according to a Nov. 14 Ambience Healthcare news release.
The tools are designed to drive down ‘pajama time,’ or time clinicians spend on after-hours documentation. Ambience launched the Autoscribe in February 2023 and has received backing from Andreessen Horowitz.
“Our team rigorously evaluated, and pressure tested a variety of solutions on the market,” John Muir Chief Medical Information Officer Priti Patel, MD, said in the news release. “We decided to launch a collaboration with Ambience because they were the only vendor who could robustly navigate all of our clinical specialties, from primary care to pediatrics to oncology, and also execute on a seamless, end-to-end integration with Epic. Working closely with Ambience and our colleagues at Epic, we’re already seeing the technology revolutionize the patient and clinician experience at John Muir Health.”
