WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗

Problem

Scripps physicians spent time typing clinical notes into electronic health records. This documentation competed with time available for patients.

Approach

Scripps tested Dragon Ambient eXperience with doctors across several specialties. With patient consent, the system recorded speech during visits and used AI to produce notes in the electronic health record. A participating internist said the time saved often allowed additional patient visits.

Results

50doctors testing DAX across specialties, according to Scripps; pilot participation rather than an outcome measureCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

Scripps reported a practical benefit from a participating physician. It did not disclose a measured average time saving across the pilot.
