Leveraging Artificial Intelligence in Medicine to Combat Documentation with Matt Dallmann
It is no secret that documentation has become burdensome in medicine.
Physicians did not go to extended schooling and training to write notes that appease insurance and the legal system.
Notes are/were meant to document an encounter that happened between physician and patient.
The #EHR has become the 'bane of my existence' while working primary care and even during the days I used to do inpatient medicine. Using a computer to check a box and look at the screen instead of looking at the patient has diluted the physician-patient relationship.
What if we could leverage #AI [artificial intelligence] to help alleviate that burden while appeasing the paper gods and insurance companies?
I had the pleasure of having a delightful conversation with Matthew Dallman developer of SmartNoteMD, has spent the last 20 years in private healthcare management, consulting and medical billing. He has contributed blogs, editorials and professional opinion in the industry resources; PhysiciansPractice.com, BC Advantage Magazine, MedPageToday.com and the AAPC's Business Healthcare Monthly. Matt also developed a CME/CEU activity on the Business of Healthcare through a joint sponsorship with the New York State Medical Society. He is an alumni of MIT's professional development courses and holds an Advanced Educational Certification in Artificial Intelligence in Medicine from the American Board of AI in Medicine.
He shares his inspiration for developing SmartNoteMD as well as his passion for contributing to the world of medicine. Collaboration with physicians and AI developers can be a possible solution to help prevent #burnout / #moralinjury .
The documentation is not going away any time soon. But, with brilliant minds like Matt's, it is possible to find #solutions .
