Vermont hospital's shared CIO leads to cost savings
Beckers
Jennifer Griffey, CFO of Brattleboro (Vt.) Memorial Hospital, told Becker's that with shared IT leadership and AI, the organization is expecting to see increased cost savings.
Brattleboro is currently in the process of implementing two AI technologies to help with administrative loads, with the first being the implementation of an AI-powered clinical documentation tool.
The tool, called DAX CoPilot, is from Nuance Communications, a healthcare artificial intelligence company owned by Microsoft. The tool will help automatically create clinical summaries for review and entry into the hospital's electronic health record.
The second is Jorie, which Ms. Griffey said works like a revenue cycle "bot," as it uses AI tools to automate tasks.
