Task

During a patient–doctor consultation, the AI system generates notes and a referral letter (if needed) for the doctor to review and use.

Intent

The AI system improves note-taking efficiency and thoroughness.

AI Workflow

Input

Process

The AI system generates consultation notes and predicts if a referral is needed; if so, the AI system drafts a letter.

Output

Clinician reviews/edits notes and adds them to the chart; if a referral is appropriate, clinician reviews/edits the letter before sending.
