AI Medical Scribe

Emerging

A tool that drafts a clinical note from the audio of a consultation for the clinician to review and sign.

The draft-and-confirm pattern is what keeps it outside device classification in most readings; removing the review step changes that.

A note drafted during a consultation, edited by the clinician, then signed into the record.
