A clinic is evaluating a note-drafting assistant. The pilot is fictional; establish the jurisdiction, data relationships and intended use before recommending a release.
Scenario inputs| Pilot | 300 encounters; manual documentation averages nine minutes per encounter. |
|---|
| Assisted workflow | Reviewing and correcting the draft averages three minutes per encounter. Determine whether later correction work is captured. |
|---|
| Critical errors | 18 drafts contain clinically significant errors; two of those errors survive the clinician review step. |
|---|
| Data path | Audio, transcripts and drafts may pass through external processors. Agreements, logging, recording permissions and retention have not yet been established. |
|---|
| Proposed expansion | Leadership wants to write accepted notes to the clinical record and expand to more specialties. |
|---|
Your task. Make a release decision. Calculate the time and error measures, specify the workflow controls and identify the evidence needed to expand.
