Here are seven hospitals and health systems piloting, testing and using AI to ease clinicians’ documentation burdens:
- Clearwater, Fla.-based BayCare is partnering with health tech company healthPrecision to develop an artificial intelligence-based platform that can help reduce hospital nurses’ documentation burden.
- UC San Diego Health, Madison Wis.-based UW Health, and Palo Alto, Calif.-based Stanford Health Care are the first health systems to use AI — built from Microsoft and Epic — to help physicians respond to patients’ questions in online portals.
- Nashville, Tenn.-based HCA Healthcare is partnering with medtech company Augmedix to expand the use of artificial intelligence-powered ambient documentation in its clinical settings. The technology works to transcribe conversations between patients and clinicians and embed the notes into the EHR.
- The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center is using technology from AI-powered medical documentation company Abridge that can automatically document clinicians’ interactions with patients.
- The University of Kansas Health System recently partnered with Abridge to deploy one of the earliest large-scale uses of generative AI in healthcare.
