“Right now, doctors spend around 40% of their time writing and checking notes, letters, and reports. While this work is important, it takes them away from seeing patients,” said Dr Fouladinejad.<\/p>\n
“There’s a lot of excitement about AI in medicine, but we must be careful and sensible in how we use it. <\/p>\n
“One of the first ways MSG is using AI is to help our doctors in writing up and summarising their notes and letters. <\/p>\n
“This could help them see more patients and reduce waiting times.”<\/p>\n
Dr Michelle Le Cheminant said the technology will hopefully give the best experience to MSG’s patients.<\/p>\n
“When you’ve thought about any change within medicine, for example, you take the dictaphone, the typewriter, we need to move forwards and this is part of that journey,” she said.<\/p>\n
Dr Le Cheminant says patients will not even notice the technology being used because Heidi works in the background “via a web browser on our computer or via an app on the doctor’s phone.”<\/p>\n
“The main difference that patients will notice when they are in the clinic room is that we won’t be having to produce a lot of handwritten notes, we won’t be having to type a lot on the computer, so really the difference is that focus on the patient and that interaction.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Right now, doctors spend around 40% of their time writing and checking notes, letters, and reports.
