Ambient Clinical Voice is a new technology being used in healthcare that helps improve patient interactions. Here’s what you should know.
What is it?
Ambient Clinical Voice in healthcare refers to integrating voice technology into clinical workflows. This helps facilitate seamless and natural interactions between healthcare providers and patients.
How does it work?
It uses voice-enabled technology, such as smart speakers or voice recognition software, to capture conversations, notes, and other important information during patient visits. The software uses Natural Language Processing (NLP) to interpret and extract relevant information from the conversation. Additionally, NLP can identify patient symptoms, medical history, and follow-up instructions. It is then integrated with Electronic Health Records (EHR), seamlessly updating the patient’s record.
What are the benefits?
Using this feature allows healthcare providers to have higher quality patient interactions, not having to look down and write notes. This improves accuracy and increases efficiency. It also easily records all the details of the interaction and automatically transfers to the EHR, so important information is always included. Also, data driven insight means the data collected through this technology can help in healthcare decisions for the provider and the patient. Another benefit is that with less time spent on administrative tasks, such as compiling notes from patient interactions, there is less chance of provider burnout.
What is the future of Ambient Clinical Voice?
Ambient Clinical Voice is still a new technology that is constantly updated. The future will bring more improvements to several aspects of the software. Advances in NLP and AI will lead to better accuracy and understanding. Also, as security is an important consideration, it will continue to develop improved security features. Finally, another possibility is that it could also be expanded to extend beyond the clinical setting and support patient engagement and remote monitoring.
