By automating clinical documentation, we can increase efficiency while improving the quality of the clinical data captured during each encounter,” said Dr. Michael A. Pfeffer, Chief Information Officer and Associate Dean, Stanford Health Care and Stanford School of Medicine. “Backed by Nuance and Microsoft, DAX Copilot has shown significant value for our physicians who used the solution during our initial pilot deployment. Patients whose providers participated in the pilot also appreciated having their doctor’s full and undivided attention during clinic or telehealth visits. We’re looking forward to rolling the solution out across all of our facilities and clinics.”
