🏥 The impact of documentation on patient outcomes 📋💪 Did you know that in 2013, a study found that optional documentation by nurses could better predict patient mortality? 📝🏥 https://lnkd.in/e8AxnzXD Meanwhile, gaps in documentation can negatively impact health outcomes, such as hospitalization length and mortality rates, because they fail to accurately reflect a patient’s medical needs. 📉 ❌ As we explored in our last post, it’s clear that top-quality documentation has a positive impact on patient outcomes. That’s why healthcare organizations are increasingly embracing a document-centric culture and implementing comprehensive clinical documentation integrity (CDI) strategies to ensure their documentation is top-notch. 📄🌟 By “top-quality documentation”, we mean data that is clear, consistent, complete, precise, reliable, on-time, and easy-to-read. 🗂️✅ The World Health Organization’s definition of data integrity can provide further insights. How important do you think top-quality documentation is in healthcare? 💬

💡Is good documentation vital to patient health? 📋💪 High-quality clinical documentation is crucial for healthcare, serving as the primary source of health data that shapes patient outcomes. 📝🏥 That’s why there’s an emerging area called “clinical documentation integrity” (CDI) – the process of ensuring medical records are accurate, comprehensive, and up-to-date, with no information gaps or missing data. 🗂️🌟 Top-quality documentation tells the full patient story, accurately reflecting a patient’s medical status and care history. 🩼🩹💉 Clinicians depend on this information to mitigate risks and provide the best possible care. 🏥 Accurate documentation influences hospitalization length, helping hospitals allocate and prioritize patients effectively. Do you feel clinical documentation gets the recognition it deserves? 💬

Hear our co-founder, Prof. Lars Maaløe, PhD, talk more about what it really takes to built world-class ambient AI to help automate clinical documentation.

💡Is good clinical documentation healthcare’s secret weapon? 🚀🗂️ 📺 It might not make for a thrilling medical drama storyline – but top-quality clinical documentation is the linchpin of good healthcare. When comprehensive and accurate, clinical documentation tells the true patient story, serving as a primary source of health data. This ensures a patient’s care team – now and into the future – has all the information they need to deliver the best possible care, for the best health outcomes. 🌟 🪙 Not to mention the benefits accurate documentation brings to the healthcare bottom line. By recording all treatments and services rendered, healthcare organizations can bill accurately, balance their budgets and keep the lights on so they can continue to provide vital services. 💡 However, upholding quality documentation has historically been challenging. Clinical documentation is time-consuming and vulnerable to human error. 🧑💻 And gaps in existing and legacy medical records pose a challenge – especially as care teams change hands or organizations shift from paper-based records to hybrid digital systems. 📝 💻 As a result, many healthcare organizations still find themselves struggling with the challenges of low-quality or unspecific clinical documentation, not to mention finding time to review records when there’s patient consultations and treatments to attend to. On the flipside, the costs of poor documentation are high – negatively impacting health outcomes for patients as well as the bottom line. 📉 That’s why the most forward-thinking healthcare organizations are fostering a documentation-centric culture and tidying up their backlog with the help of specialists and innovation. ⚕️🧬 That’s where clinical documentation integrity (CDI) comes in. CDI is a concept that’s been flying under the radar for a while – embraced by innovative healthcare organizations while still relatively unknown in the larger healthcare ecosystems. But its potential for healthcare organizations is transformative. 🚀 Simply put, CDI is the process of reviewing medical records to spot gaps and achieve the best quality data – while ensuring that going forward, clinical documentation is recorded to the highest standard. 📑 ✔️ A robust CDI program or strategy includes elements like a dedicated CDI team, regular audits, ongoing healthcare staff training in documentation best practices, and leveraging technology to improve documentation proactively. 🤖 💻 🧑🏽💼 It’s a huge topic - and unchartered territory! 🧭 So over the coming weeks, we’ll be exploring the ins and outs of CDI in bite-sized chunks on our channels - and we’ve written an easy-to-understand blog to get you acquainted with the topic! 🖊️ Read it here ➡️➡️➡️ https://lnkd.in/ewPQpM7W Have you heard of CDI?

I am excited to participate in this panel and also share some insights what we at Corti believe #GenAI can be use for to support Medical Professionals to help more patients. Topic of my presentation will be Unleashing Generative AI's Power in Daily Healthcare   I will address critical challenges in healthcare, including physician burnout, reduced patient interaction time, rising error rates, and significant administrative burdens. Only 1% of doctor-patient interactions are quality assured, and 88% of diagnoses change with a second opinion, highlighting issues in diagnostic accuracy. Medical Co-Pilots powered by Generative AI can serve as a transformative solution addressing and overcoming many current industry challenges. Hope to see many of you there :-)

We are proud to have the support from inspiring thought leaders like Florentine Genss & Bits & Pretzels 🇩🇪🙌

Thank you for a great #HIMSSEurope. We were excited to come and talk about trustworthy AI in healthcare. Here's a small snippet from our CEO. 🙏

A bright future ahead for European hospitals. Thanks to HLTH Europe, Heyo Kroemer, Victor Savevski, Dr. Nadine Hachach-Haram FRCS (Plast), BEM, and of course the phenomenal Pam Garside. Full recording coming soon so you can see why Andreas Cleve was talking about printed maps and Spotify on a health tech panel. #hlth #hltheurope #healthtech #healthcareinnovation #healthcareai

HLTH Europe’s first event is a great success. We’re proud to be among the pioneers and soon taking over the main stage. If you’re not here to see Andreas Cleve talk about the gen-AI empowered future of hospitals (shame on you), the session is recorded and we’ll share asap. Thank you HLTH and the health community.

🇳🇱 WE ARE GOING LIVE IN TH NETHERLANDS 🇳🇱
