With the help of a new tool powered by GPT AI, clinicians may create EHRs while devoting more attention to their patients than to their notes.
According to an international maagzine the new technology from medical network Carbon Health Technologies Inc. fuses audio recordings of patient appointments with other data to build a medical document.
Based on OpenAI Inc.’s GPT-4, the new system not only provides care instructions but also diagnostic and billing codes.
ChatGPT, with its human-like dialogue and oftentimes erroneous responses, has prompted ethical concerns as the sheer power of GPT has changed the artificial intelligence business.
The paper stated that the usage of AI throughout the medical industry, from medication discovery to patient diagnostics, had boosted efficiency.
“These new developments in AI have really all of a sudden gotten to a very exciting place,” said Eren Bali, CEO of Carbon Health.
The goal of Carbon Health’s use of technology is to enhance care and provide patients more time in person with their doctors. His words: “We are rethinking everything we built and saying, ‘In a world where we have very powerful language models, how would we do these things differently?'”
Using Amazon Transcribe Medical, a HIPAA-compliant service designed to accurately capture the names of medications, treatments, and disorders, Carbon Health’s new tool captures and transcribes patient appointments.

The vendor claims that about 90% of transcripts are accepted without revisions, and that the resulting records are more comprehensive than those produced manually.
The paper said that because it takes less than four minutes to produce a medical record, clinics can treat more patients without overextending their resources.
“As doctors, you get trained to do one thing, which is to take care of patients and save lives, and then you find that your day is filled with these administrative tasks,” said Caesar Djavaherian, Chief Clinical Innovation Officer at Carbon Health and a clinician at the company.
“There’s already a shortage of doctors in the country, and frankly, this kind of technology will make doctors more likely to stay in their jobs and actually be able to see more patients,” he added.
More than 130 of the company’s clinics in 12 states use Carbon Health, an electronic health records platform, to automate procedures including prescription and lab order entry, appointment scheduling, patient follow-up, and physician referrals.
According to Djavaherian, “the first version of electronic health records was for billing purposes, or as a replacement for paper.” You have access to amazing technology that can improve your life in countless ways. It has the potential to improve health care.”
