I love your not-so-subtle suggestions for how to improve things. You are so bright and cheery, and you occasionally drop a hammer in the same cheery tone, which makes it even better.
The problem with using NLP and GenAI to write notes is that it's a work around to the real problem, which is ridiculous documentation rules that no other doctors in the developed world have to deal with. On the outpatient side, notes in Western Europe are 2 lines long, total. You can see 5 complete progress notes on one screen. No other country expects the medical record to also be a legal and billing document. They use medical records for their intended purpose: to be tool to help a doctor remember what he was thinking and doing.
Pretty sure Elon Musk types already run Fortune 100 health conglomerates. Extra intermediaries taking a cut might slow clinicians but intermediary profits efficiently flow up the same food chain paying those clinicians now cursing their EHRs, prior auths, and useless proprietary continuing ed certs. Bonus: pool the human auditor years at the FTC, SEC, etc., and it won't be nearly enough for a full game of "follow the money" through fiefdoms like UHC or CVS Health.
