Leveraging Artificial Intelligence in Medicine to Combat Documentation with Matt Dallmann

The Worthy Physician

It is no secret that documentation has become burdensome in medicine.
Physicians did not go to extended schooling and training to write notes that appease insurance and the legal system.
Notes are/were meant to document an encounter that happened between physician and patient.
The EHR has become the 'bane of my existence' while working primary care and even during the days I used to do inpatient medicine.  Using a computer to check a box and look at the screen instead of looking at the patient has diluted the physician-patient relationship.

What if we could leverage AI [artificial intelligence] to help alleviate that burden while appeasing the paper gods and insurance companies?

I had the pleasure of having a delightful conversation with Matt Dallmann,the developer of SmartNoteMD, has spent the last 20 years in private healthcare management, consulting and medical billing.

He shares his inspiration for developing SmartNoteMD as well as his passion for contributing to the world of medicine.  Collaboration with physicians and AI developers can be a possible solution to help prevent burnout/moral injury.
The documentation is not going away any time soon.  But, with brilliant minds like Matt's, it is possible to find solutions.

Topics Discussed in this Episode:

  • Matt Dallmann describes his background in healthcare and inspiration for developing SmartNoteMD.
  • The use of AI in medicine to help alleviate administrative burden.
  • Collaboration and roll out of SmartNoteMD.

Though I am a physician, this is not medical advice. This is only a tool that physicians can use to get ideas on how to deal with burnout and/or know they are not alone. If you are in need of medical assistance talk to your physician.
