Impact of AI in Clinical Documentation

AI medical scribes can significantly enhance efficiency for clinicians by automating the transcription process during patient visits. Tools like Freed enables clinicians to focus more on patient care without the overwhelming burden of documentation. This technology listens and writes clinical notes in the clinician's own style, making it accessible across various medical specialties. As a result, clinicians report saving up to two hours daily, ultimately improving their work-life balance and allowing them to engage more deeply with their patients.
