Dr. Mitch Katz discusses the potential implementation of new technologies, particularly ambient charting, to improve efficiency and reduce administrative burdens on doctors at NYC Health + Hospitals.

  • Ambient charting is described as a computer application that listens to the doctor-patient conversation and automatically generates notes
  • The technology could potentially write orders and notes based on the doctor's verbal instructions during the visit
  • Katz emphasizes that doctors would still need to review and approve the AI-generated notes to ensure accuracy
  • The goal of implementing such technology is to reduce the time doctors spend on documentation, allowing them to focus more on patient care
