AI vs. paperwork: how technology is bringing doctors back to patients

      At the Kazan Digital Week forum, the prospects for the use of artificial intelligence in healthcare were discussed. Experts note that up to 80% of doctors' working time may be spent on paperwork, which directly affects the quality of medical care.

      Key areas of automation include, for example, speech analytics for filling out medical protocols, voice assistants for handling documentation, and RAG services for generating phrasing in accordance with clinical guidelines.

      According to discussion participants, modern speech recognition systems reduce the time to complete an examination protocol from 5–7 minutes to 30 seconds. Automation is especially relevant for institutions under the Mandatory Health Insurance (MHI) system, where errors in documents can lead to underpayment of up to 30% of insurance payouts, reports volga.news.

      Despite the technology's potential, the AI implementation process remains complex and can take up to six months. The most effective solution is ready-made platform products that can be integrated with existing medical systems within a few weeks.

      Mass adoption of AI in medicine is not a question of the distant future, but already the current reality. Interestingly, the technology has its greatest effect in solving routine tasks, allowing doctors to focus on what really matters — patients.
