“An artificial intelligence (AI) EHR integration helped physicians extract patient health information more efficiently, according to a study published in JAMA Network Open.”
“Researchers recruited 12 gastroenterology physicians/fellows at an academic medical center to analyze how an AI integration affected EHR use time and data accuracy…”
“The AI system cut EHR use time by 18 percent; standard record review took 12.8 minutes on average, while AI-optimized record review took clinicians 10.5 minutes.”
“What’s more, there was no significant decrease in accuracy of patient information; data accuracy was 83.7 percent with the AI-optimized record and 86.0 percent without the AI-optimized record.”
“Survey results found that 11 of 12 physicians (92 percent) preferred AI-optimized record review to standard review.”
“While the clinicians noted a learning curve, 11 of 12 said they believed that the health IT solution would save them time and were interested in using the EHR integration in their clinic…” Read the full article here.
