Emergency Services Inc. Partners with Augmedix to Introduce Generative AI Solution That Relieves Clinician Burnout in Emergency Departments
SAN FRANCISCO, June 20, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Augmedix (NASDAQ:AUGX), a leader in ambient AI medical documentation and data solutions, announced today that Emergency Services Inc., a physician-owned emergency medicine services group in Columbus, Ohio, is introducing Augmedix Go ED to physicians in the emergency department (ED) at the second-largest healthcare system in central Ohio.
Augmedix Go ED is the industry's first fully automated, generative AI (GenAI) powered medical documentation product for EDs nationwide.
"Given the unique needs of the ED, it has been difficult to identify a documentation solution that effectively alleviates the administrative burden on our physicians – until we were introduced to Augmedix Go ED," said Eric Drobny, MD, CFO at Emergency Services Inc. "Emergency departments are noisy and fast-paced environments, and patient visits often involve multiple, fragmented interactions with several clinicians. We anticipate that Augmedix Go ED will allow us to automate documentation in this challenging environment, which will reduce the burden on our clinicians so that they can provide the best care possible."
This announcement comes on the heels of the launch of Augmedix Go ED. Clinicians reported a significant reduction in administrative burden, noting that the GenAI technology's high accuracy and overall quality of the medical notes met their needs in EDs.
"Our partnership with Emergency Services Inc. highlights our dedication to delivering leading-edge GenAI products in an area of healthcare that is lacking effective solutions: emergency medicine," said Manny Krakaris, CEO of Augmedix. "Emergency Services Inc. is an ideal partner for us because they prioritize the well-being and positive experiences of their clinicians, and ultimately, patients."
