The Next Stop on Healthcare’s EHR Optimization Journey: AI
More than 15 years after the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act, healthcare organizations continue optimizing electronic health records (EHRs) to improve workflows and reduce clinician burnout. AI and machine learning are driving innovations, such as real-time clinical note-taking and predictive analytics for precision medicine. At Phoenix Children’s, integration of EHR data with a real-time data warehouse and AI tools like ChatGPT supports tasks like malnutrition prediction and sepsis risk detection. Ozarks Healthcare focuses on removing workflow inefficiencies and implementing AI-powered documentation and dosing calculators to aid clinicians. St. Mary’s Healthcare, leveraging its nimbleness as a small system, adopted AI voice assistants in EHRs to streamline documentation and enhance data exchange, continuously improving through user feedback and system upgrades.
