Microsoft, Epic and health systems across the country are working to develop an AI solution that uses ambient technology to streamline nursing documentation.
Three things to know:
- The new tool will leverage ambient technology to create flowsheets for review, allowing nurses to minimize paperwork and dedicate more time to patient care, according to an Oct. 10 news release from Microsoft.
- Charlotte, N.C.-based Advocate Health; Jacksonville, Fla.-based Baptist Health; Durham, N.C.-based Duke Health; Denver, Colo.-based Intermountain Health Saint Joseph Hospital; St. Louis-based Mercy; Chicago-based Northwestern Medicine; Palo Alto, Calif.-based Stanford Health Care; and Tampa (Fla.) General Hospital are among the healthcare organizations working with Microsoft and Epic on this initiative.
- This initiative builds on the collaboration between Epic and Microsoft, first announced in 2023, which developed and integrated generative AI into Epic's EHR software.
