Summary
Abridge has broadened its generative AI tools for medical documentation to include inpatient care, partnering with Epic, a leading electronic health record provider. The new tool, Abridge Inside for Inpatient, was co-developed with Epic to align with its inpatient workflows, allowing clinicians to efficiently create notes using SmartPhrases and templates. It automates the mapping of generated notes into specific types, such as progress notes and consult notes, and will soon incorporate prior note data for improved documentation continuity. This expansion aims to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of medical note-taking across complex inpatient settings.
