eCW Poll Identifies Key Challenges and Solutions Whatever their specialty, however large their practice, and regardless of how diverse their patient populations may be, America's healthcare professionals share a common challenge — administrative tasks. Year after year, case studies, surveys, polls, and anecdotal evidence agree that grappling with office administration — everything from check-in and insurance authorizes to care documentation, fax boxes, and gathering patient records — is among the biggest challenges in healthcare. All that administrative work generates an ever-growing flood of data. And while much of it is essential to providing prompt, quality care to patients, it is also very easy to lose one's way amid such work. That can leave doctors and staff feeling disconnected — both from the patients they care for and from their own families and personal lives — as their administrative work consumes their evenings, cutting into the "pajama time" we all need to rest, relax, and recharge. Our May 2024 poll of more than 120 healthcare professionals confirms these findings. Indeed, 41 percent of respondents told us they are spending four or more hours every day on documentation alone. That's like spending half your workday simply recording what you did during the other half. But remember that, in medicine, there are few timeouts. Patients keep coming, data keeps flowing in, and the time for completing documentation and other administrative work often extends beyond the hour when the office closes — and can run well into the evening.

How Sunoh.ai medical scribe can advance care Ask someone to list major medical advances, and they are likely to list such things as the eradication of polio, the development of new drugs, the mapping of the human genome, or breakthroughs that are helping improve cancer survival rates. It’s easy to forget about dental care. But good oral health, so often overlooked, remains a vital part of leading a full and healthy life. The list of advances in dentistry is impressive, from the use of drugs to numb pain to more precise and less invasive ways to detect and treat dental decay. Digital radiography has reduced patients’ exposure to X-rays. Silver amalgams have largely been replaced with safer, natural-looking materials. But there’s another way that today’s dental providers can improve their practices and better serve patients—by adopting an AI medical scribe known as Sunoh.ai. eClinicalWorks recently announced that it is integrating Sunoh.ai into dental clinics across the country.

Physicians Have Limits — Healthcare IT Can Help Every medical practice is more or less different from every other, whether by virtue of size, location, specialty, or emphasis. But every medical practice, from the smallest rural health center to the largest urban hospital system, shares one economic reality — resources are always limited. Many providers work long hours to serve their patients, often completing their daily documentation in the evening from home. But clocks, calendars, and human endurance sets limits. There are only 24 hours in a day and seven days in a week. Add in a shortage of physicians and ever-increasing demands by patients, and it is not surprising that surveys consistently show that about two-thirds of U.S. providers report at least one symptom of burnout.

At some point in the journey of any medical practice, providers and staff encounter the challenge of managing success. With new patients, they need new ways to improve efficiency, speed up workflows, and capture revenue. But how practices think about their healthcare IT can spell the difference between being overwhelmed and successfully managing growth. A traditional approach might work One approach is to simply add new tools for everything from telehealth and Population Health to improved interoperability and billing. That may work, but busy practices often lack the time needed for training. The challenges can be so many — and seem so overwhelming — that practices find themselves underutilizing many of the solutions they are paying for.

According to research conducted by 3M and the American Hospital Association, clinical documentation is critical in providing and coordinating care. Their study found that physicians who lack sufficient time for documentation are nearly three times as likely to report symptoms of burnout. That’s why reducing time spent on documentation is essential. This AMA report demonstrates how an AI scribe saves doctors an hour a day from the keyboard. Integrating AI technology into the EHR eases the administrative workload, reduces burnout, increases provider satisfaction, and improves work-life balance. AI functionalities like medical AI scribes allow for more focused, distraction-free patient care. Last year, eClinicalWorks introduced a series of AI functionalities, including Sunoh.ai. AI-powered medical scribe solutions integrated into the EHR, like Sunoh, redefine patient-provider interactions and increase healthcare efficiency. In fact, Sunoh is set to become a go-to technology in modern healthcare. Captures Unstructured Data AI scribe solutions use natural language processing (NLP) technology to understand context and analyze unstructured data to generate real-time documentation. Sunoh.ai uses AI and ambient listening technology to pick up a patient and provider conversation and create a transcript that distinguishes between their voices. The provider can review and import relevant data to complete the clinical documentation.

Imagine that you are a small medical practice with a handful of providers and staff serving thousands of patients. You studied the market and identified a growing need for the services you offer. You chose a great location. You selected eClinicalWorks® and healow® for documentation, practice management, and patient engagement. Your first priority is serving current patients, but you know that long-term success will require growth. Soon, you will face the challenge of attracting more patients. Will you have the personnel and tools necessary to serve them? How will you solve the scalability puzzle? A good option — and a better one You could take the slow and steady route: Be patient, serve your existing patients well, and trust that as your reputation and resources grow, you’ll be able to add staff and patients. That may work, but there’s a better and faster way to achieve scalability. eClinicalWorks and healow offer dozens of innovative solutions. Any one of them can expand efficiency and capacity to some degree, but the combined effect of implementing multiple solutions can truly transform your practice.

AI medical scribes are becoming important for providers looking to deliver better, cost-effective care. Clinical documentation is the foundation of better healthcare delivery. It ensures continuity and quality of care, allowing healthcare professionals to track a patient’s health journey. Simplifying the documentation process allows doctors to spend less time on manual, repetitive tasks and more time with patients. Value-Based Care Providers understand that each person is unique. Value-based care focuses on the patient experience, quality of care, provider performance, and controlling costs. This is where AI-powered ambient listening technology – like Sunoh.ai – comes in. It is a key component of patient-centric care, helping to facilitate a personalized experience that promotes improved health outcomes for each patient. Sunoh.ai takes care of the clinical documentation, freeing providers to spend more face-to-face time with their patients. According to an article in NEJM Catalyst, physicians and hospitals can level up their coordination through shared data, ensuring that everyone involved in a patient's care has access to the same information. This reduces the duplication of tests and ensures that the treatment plan is appropriate and effective. Sunoh.ai is EHR-agnostic; it integrates with any EHR – including yours. This enhances interoperability, ensures smoother data transitions, and provides more efficient, effective, personalized care, all essential to value-based care.
