- ska 7y agoThe nice thing about medical reports is that a lot of factors conspire to make it an easier problem that the general case.
- Herodotus38 7y agoI have not heard of them but from reading their website looks like using AI to help charting efficiency and to squeeze more blood out of the turnip so to speak by making sure you get all those HCCs. This is the direction I’ve thought AI in medicine will go for a while: speech to text, suggested diagnosis and then suggested treatment plans. When you can get a HIPAA compliant way to record what the pt is saying and write the note (an AI scribe, so to speak), that is where I think it will start. How is m*modal, have you used it?
