Ambience Healthcare's new product, AutoScribe, embeds into the electronic medical record and works in real-time. When clinicians use AutoScribe, they speak to their patient as they normally would while the software listens in the background. Immediately after the visit, the physician gets a draft of the medical notes from the meeting, and then they can edit the notes if needed.
AI-powered automation tools, when combined with specialty trained virtual scribes, become a dynamic duo that acts as an extension of the clinician’s care team.
