Artificial Intelligence (AI) has taken over the healthcare landscape. AI-driven technologies and tools are being implemented to ease administrative burdens and enhance the patient care process through quick diagnosis.
Artificial Intelligence in MEDITECH Software
MEDITECH EHR Software has utilized AI technology in its EMR solution to help enhance the experience of patients and care teams. Artificial intelligence is a great way to support the provider by easing pressure off them.
MEDITECH EMR Approach to AI
The EHR Software vendor’s approach to AI is similar to how they have integrated mobility and interoperability into the Electronic Medical Records (EMR) Software. MEDITECH keeps users’ needs in mind and then creates solutions and systems around the requirements of physicians.
Based on the AI implementation experience MEDITECH has defined the six important objectives that direct the vendor in rolling out new solutions with Artificial Intelligence.
- Safe – MEDITECH AI solutions are safe and secure and maintained in a cloud environment.
- Efficient – The AI tools are intelligent aiming to reduce the time spent on documentation by providers.
- Impactful – The state-of-the-art technologies can help quickly retrieve critical patient data, enabling providers to discuss care plans with patients without delay.
- Effective – The AI-driven solutions are compared with other technology solutions to determine their suitability and reliability.
- Accessible – Healthcare systems of every size can use these solutions.
- Accountable – MEDITECH is driven to enhance its software products by improving the EHR structure for its users.
AI tools by MEDITECH EHR Software
Virtual Assistant
The MEDITECH Expanse virtual assistant leverages Nuance speech recognition to respond promptly to voice commands from physicians. The virtual assistant then displays the data at the point of care on a smartphone or mobile device.
The healthcare provider can now access information without clicking and typing. This can greatly enhance the user experience and providers can experience a new level of efficiency altogether. The Expanse virtual assistant can pull up every patient’s information including vitals, medication history, and lab results in just a few minutes.
Google Search and Summarization
Google Search and Summarization integrates structured and unstructured data from Expanse EHR Software, legacy MEDITECH systems, and scanned documents to give an up-to-date view of the patient.
The intelligent search function enables clinicians to quickly find answers to search questions. Google Search and Summarization also reduces the burden on providers as they don’t have to manually search for past patient records.
The quick and accurate access to data helps physicians reduce order duplication, gaps in care can be identified promptly, and trends can be documented in the patient history.
