Partnership to streamline clinical documentation

Cloud-hosted patient management platform MediRecords will be offering AI note-taking technology from October to streamline clinical documentation.

The cloud electronic health record and practice management system will offer an integration with Heidi Health’s AI Medical Scribe, enabling clinical consultations to be transformed into notes or documents in seconds. Doctors will not need to log into a separate software system, or cut and paste across browser tabs, thanks to embedded Heidi capability inside MediRecords.

Heidi generates documents such as referral letters, clinical notes and care plans. With Heidi scribing, doctors can type less and reclaim time for patient care — or better work-life balance.

MediRecords Founder and CEO Matthew Galetto said, “Everything we can do to improve working conditions for clinicians helps them provide better patient outcomes. We are excited about partnering with Heidi Health and our other AI initiatives on the way.”

Heidi Health data shows clinicians spend more than two hours per day on tasks other than patient care, losing up to $66,000 annually as a result. AI scribe technology means they can work up to twice as efficiently.

Heidi Health Founder and CEO Dr Thomas Kelly said, “As a clinician, I recognise that doctors rarely experience benefits from introducing new tools. Heidi is the rare case where simply clicking a button can be life-changing, saving hours of work each day. We’re proud to be partnering with MediRecords, who have led the industry in cloud, interoperability and now, AI.”

With a Heidi subscription, MediRecords users can launch AI ambient technology from their clinical dashboard, transforming consultations into templated notes for review by the user. Once reviewed, the notes are automatically added to MediRecords’ Today’s Notes field. Heidi Health technology is GDPR and APP (Australian Privacy Principles) compliant and ISO27001 and SOC2 accredited for security. MediRecords is a multidisciplinary EHR and PMS system used by clients including Queensland Health and the Victorian Virtual Emergency Department. It will soon also be deployed by the Australian Defence Force.
