Creating Time to Care with Ambient Intelligence


Speaker: Daniel Engel

Description:  Administrative tasks can consume more than 44% of a clinician’s day, with only 33% of time being focused on direct patient care. Clinicians often find themselves focused on the computer instead of the patient during visits and extra afterhours work, which leads to frustration and potential burnout that affects care quality and retention. Ambient intelligence and virtual assistant solutions can help limit the amount of time physicians spend interacting with the electronic health record (EHR), freeing up time to spend with their patients and families and creating a better care delivery experience. Equally critical, virtual assistant solutions can help drive documentation of the highest integrity, streamlined into a physician’s workflow at the point of care to allow documentation specialists to work at the top of their license. Join Daniel Engel, product director, 3M clinician solutions, to explore opportunities that transform the documentation experience to reduce costs, improve documentation integrity, and create time to care.
