“We want to support our clinicians so they can sustainably serve our patients,” says the health system’s CHIO, who sees big potential for the EHR-linked generative AI tool to reduce administrative burden and alleviate burnout.
Sutter Health, one of Northern California’s largest healthcare providers, is teaming up with Abridge, a healthcare AI startup focused on clinical documentation, to offer the service to its physicians and clinicians across the state.
