I dove into @knowtexai at the VA and it's absolutely improved my QOL and patient care. I have more time to review scans, place timely orders during visit so Vets can immediately get labs/followup, and get Vets specific education content from our visit before they leave

Knowtex CEO @CarolineCZhang predicts every doctor will be using AI within a year, bringing Stanford-grade medical expertise to patients even in rural clinics: "In a year, every doctor is going to be using AI. It's no longer gonna be a question of, 'Oh, I am from a different generation.' Every doctor is going to be recording the patient conversation." "Clinicians are not only recording patient conversations, but they can get decision-making recommendations that point the path toward the best care." "Stanford grade care for every patient in the room, no matter if you're actually in that Stanford Hospital or if you're in a rural community health clinic that doesn't typically have access to that kind of expert knowledge." @knowtexai

Knowtex CEO @CarolineCZhang reveals why the next frontier of healthcare AI isn't automating doctors' work, but discovering medical patterns no single doctor could ever uncover: "There's never been a better time to build in healthcare. Healthcare is really what I see as the last frontier, where you get to work on the hardest technical challenges because the data and the systems are very messy." "Phase number one is automation foundations: scribing, coding, order entry. Number two, agent operations. Can you integrate deeply into the EHR? Can you surface findings?" "Third is clinical intelligence and live discovery. Every patient encounter in an exam room is an opportunity to move forward medicine. If you map that across all clinicians, you're going to start to see patterns that no single doctor could see alone."

Knowtex CEO @CarolineCZhang reveals how 2 Stanford AI scientists went from spending a year as medical scribes to securing a place on the VA's $775M AI contract: "My co-founder and I are Stanford alums and AI scientists. But to really build a product that could serve healthcare needs, we forward deployed ourselves for one year as medical scribes." "That means showing up in scrubs, being next to the doctor side by side, shadow them, write their notes. Actually sit through payer calls, see how they order chemotherapy, see how the patient encounter goes." "It's a superpower that we still have in our back pocket. Why not just go on the ground and walk a mile in our users' shoes?" @knowtexai @Jocelynrice27

Artificial intelligence company @knowtexai launched a frontier AI lab for healthcare, aimed at developing and rigorously evaluating clinical AI tools for accuracy, auditability and clinician trust bit.ly/3VxOkd9
