The tool, Dragon Ambient eXperience, uses generative AI to generate clinical summaries for exam room or telehealth discussions within seconds, allowing for prompt review and entry into the EHR system, according to a March 7 press release from Nuance.

The aim is to roll out this tool to eliminate the need for clinicians to type notes on a computer during appointments with patients.

More than 55 healthcare organizations have used this tool embedded into their Epic EHR systems, according to the release.
