Episode Highlight: “That extra 30 seconds with a patient, If you can turn on a tool that’s documenting and you have all of your documentation done. Because as a clinician you know this as you’re stacked up you’re halfway through your morning you have you know three patients you still have to document on that you’ve already seen you got a few people that you’re worried about coming up, and I found myself not completely present with every patient. And that’s a problem as a clinician and so now with a with Nabla with an AI documentation tool I can sit there and I can know that what’s going on is documented.”
