“By assisting our physicians with these AI enhancements, we hope to reach more patients seeking care,” said J. R. De La Garza, chief operating officer at Coastal Bend Wellness Foundation. “One of the leading causes for burnout is managing administrative tasks, it reduces productivity and takes focus away from patient care. AI-enabled features that assist our physicians daily and help reduce the workload are of great interest to us. By implementing the new eClinicalWorks AI features and Sunoh.ai, we hope to achieve consistency across clinical workflows and save providers time on clinical documentation.”

eClinicalWorks V12, the first AI-powered EHR, will reshape the future of EHRs by transforming workflows, enhancing office efficiency, and improving patient satisfaction. AI integrations include:

  • Generative AI: Integrating secure, private generative AI models from Azure OpenAI Service in eClinicalWorks enables the industry’s first conversational EHR.
  • Image AI: AI assistants for images facilitate document recognition and routing for incoming faxes.
  • Speech AI: Sunoh.ai ambient listening technology converts natural language conversations between healthcare providers and patients into clinical documentation.
  • healow® no-show prediction AI model: With machine learning, the healow no-show prediction model helps practices identify appointments with a high probability of being a no-show.
  • Playlists with RPA: Playlists with robotic process automation (RPA) help streamline tasks, reducing the need for multi-screen navigation.

“We’re transforming standard office visits into deeply engaging, intuitive, and immersive communication experiences, saving providers up to two hours daily on clinical documentation,” said Saurabh Singh, vice president of Sunoh.ai. “Sunoh.ai has the potential to revolutionize healthcare by eliminating ‘pajama time’ providers spend on post-visit documentation. Our advanced AI technology is specifically designed to transcribe ambient data into structured documentation. Leveraging the power of natural language processing tools and voice recognition technology, Sunoh.ai is paving the way to address physician burnout.”

These transformative AI advancements and technologies in healthcare can help improve provider satisfaction, enhance efficiency, and reduce costs. Incorporating AI into EHR systems can revolutionize healthcare by enhancing data interpretation, automating data entry to reduce human errors and costs, and processing large patient data to accelerate clinical efficiency.
