Focusing doctors on what matters
Introduction
Supporting doctors with filling out patient healthcare paperwork.
Problem
Doctors face high processing times when working with patients involving a high volume of paperwork that must be manually completed, delaying them from spending more time with their patients.
- Doctors waste 1-3 hours after rounds documenting from memory, creating even more stress and taking time away from patient care.
- Important clinical information gets lost or distorted, because nothing captures conversations, decisions, and findings in real time.
- Orders and tasks decided during rounds are not recorded immediately, causing delays, missed actions, and slower care coordination.
- Delayed documentation slows the entire hospital workflow, impacting nurses, discharge planning, and overall efficiency.
Opportunity
A mobile/tablet tool that, during rounds:
- Transcribes doctor–patient conversations
- Extracts symptoms, changes, findings
- Suggests diagnoses & differential updates
- Auto-updates the patient chart
- Generates orders (labs, meds, imaging) for confirmation
Key advantages:
- Documentation completed during rounds, not afterwards
- Reduces after-shift paperwork
- Strong physician adoption due to time savings
Further details:
- Real-time AI transcription during rounds captures conversations, findings, and decisions instantly, eliminating the need to document later.
- Automatic extraction of clinical insights (symptoms, changes, meds, assessments) creates structured notes without manual typing.
- Instant task and order suggestions ensure labs, imaging, consults, and medication changes are recorded immediately and never forgotten.
- Notes and plans update the EHR in real time, speeding up communication across nurses, care teams, and discharge planning.
