“I’ve been looking to invest in a solution to this problem for years and have evaluated many players in the space,” said Nina Achadjian, Partner at Index Ventures. DeepScribe was built to meaningfully scale the quality and experience of a human medical scribe with the cost and scalability of an AI-first workflow.

Large companies and VC-backed startups have tried for years to solve this problem, but failed to crack it-until DeepScribe. Over the years, this pressure has led to efforts to improve clinical documentation through innovative models and technologies, such as dictation tools and human medical scribes. In one survey, EHRs were identified as one of the primary causes of physicians experiencing burnout, which is leading droves of doctors to cut down on their hours or leave the profession. Since the advent of EHRs, physicians say that EHRs have “transformed them from clinicians into clerks,” since documentation is a means for healthcare payers to justify the level of reimbursement they provide for certain visits. Physicians today spend more than half of their valuable time documenting healthcare delivery rather than actually providing it. “Physician-patient conversations have the most rich information, but busy, burned out clinicians do not have the bandwidth to document all of this data and do anything meaningful with it. “We believe that ambient voice technology is the key to transcending AI in medicine from simply delivering workflow efficiencies to actually improving healthcare outcomes,” said Akilesh Bapu and Matthew Ko, co-founders of DeepScribe. To date, DeepScribe has saved physicians over 2.5 million minutes of documentation.

By automating medical documentation, DeepScribe saves physicians an average of three hours a day and costs approximately one-sixth the cost of human medical scribes.

DeepScribe then uploads the notes directly into the discrete fields of Electronic Health Records, enabling physicians to review and sign their fully-prepared notes in the appropriate EHR fields. The application enables doctors to record patient exams while it intelligently listens and prepares clinical notes. With a tap of the button, a physician’s natural conversation is recorded, summarized, and integrated into their health record system of choice.
