In recent years, digital has evolved into its own distinct asset class for healthcare organizations of any size, and is a necessary strategic pillar in any long-term strategy.

Digital solutions can relieve staffing shortages, offer new services, create workflow efficiencies, expand access and help realize downstream revenue.

Oncology-focused solutions exist within a broad framework and support patients, caregivers, and care teams through screening, diagnosis, treatment, second opinions and referrals, and ongoing support and coordination.

Human scribes have proven helpful in reducing physician administrative burden. According to the AMA, having a scribe in the room can reduce burnout by as much as 27%. But this is not as easy a solution to implement as one might think. Have you seen the average size of the examination room? Getting another person in there makes for a crowded elevator. Then, there’s the intimacy problem. Health conversations can be difficult with another person listening in and taking notes. Not to mention the challenge of getting enough trained people available whenever the physician needs them. Alternatively, a well-trained AI model is exceptionally good at processing the conversation between a physician and patient, transcribing it, ordering the conversation into appropriate notes, performing the necessary documentation for claims, initiating referrals for lab tests, images, specialists, and so on.

As a practicing physician, I, like many others, can easily become overwhelmed by administrative burden and information overload. Seeing many patients in a matter of minutes, means I have limited time to digest relevant information from the patient chart that could positively impact the way I deliver personalized care. Every day, clinicians search through numerous tabs in the EHR to gather data before seeing patients —reviewing new labs, notes, and telephone encounters. This leaves less time for patient encounters and even less time to research evidence-based care based on unique patient experiences. This discrepancy between best practice and care delivered, coupled with lots of wasted physician time, leads to suboptimal patient outcomes.
