Summary
Sentara Health has expanded its use of Regard's AI-powered chart review tool, which has now been implemented across all 12 of its hospitals after a successful three-year pilot. The technology automates the review of structured and unstructured patient data, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and improving patient safety by identifying missed documentation opportunities. A ChatGPT-style feature summarizing clinical histories and discharge notes has significantly reduced cognitive burdens on clinicians, allowing them to focus on critical tasks rather than extensive documentation. This widespread adoption underscores the growing role of AI in streamlining healthcare processes and enhancing the efficacy of clinical decision-making.
