GI Alliance, a leading network of gastroenterology providers in the United States, has partnered with Ambience Healthcare to develop a comprehensive suite of AI documentation tools tailored for gastroenterology. This collaboration aims to enhance clinical documentation and improve patient care in the field.
Key Highlights of the Partnership:
Efficiency in Documentation: The AI tools developed by Ambience Healthcare have been deployed in regional GI practices across the U.S. These tools have significantly reduced the time required for new patient documentation by 83%, allowing clinicians to focus more on patient care and see additional patients.
Customized AI Solutions: The partnership addresses the challenge of generic AI documentation tools by creating solutions specifically designed for gastroenterology. This customization includes support for complex visits, dietary assessments, clinical pathway adherence, and automating common GI scoring systems.
Clinician Burnout Reduction: The AI tools aim to reduce clinician burnout by streamlining documentation processes and ensuring high-quality care documentation. This also enhances the clinician-patient communication experience.
Comprehensive AI Suite: Ambience Healthcare offers a range of AI tools, including AutoScribe for real-time medical scribing, AutoCDI for ensuring appropriate coding and documentation, AutoRefer for referral letter composition, and AutoAVS for after-visit summaries. A new tool, AutoPrep, is also in development for intelligent pre-charting.
Positive Clinical Impact: Clinicians like Dr. Yvette Lam from Arizona Digestive Health, part of GI Alliance, have reported saving significant time and improving communication with patients using these AI tools.
This partnership between GI Alliance and Ambience Healthcare represents a significant step in integrating AI technology into gastroenterology, aiming to improve clinical efficiency, reduce burnout, and enhance patient care.
