WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗

Problem

Clinical documentation competed with patient conversations and continued after office hours. Physicians wanted to finish notes without extending their working day.

Approach

OSF piloted Microsoft's DAX Copilot for 6 months. With patient consent, it recorded visits and drafted notes in the electronic health record. Providers reviewed and could edit each note before approval.

Results

30-40 minutesdaily time recovered from documentation during the 6-month pilot, according to OSFCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The pilot combined automated drafting with clinician approval. OSF was still collecting evidence on whether saved time increased appointment capacity.
