Artificial intelligence scribing is a new innovation in healthcare with the potential to improve clinical practice efficiency and enhance the doctor-patient connection.

In this #ArthritisAtHome, we are sharing the #CRArthritis interview with Dr. Vandana Ahluwalia, a rheumatologist based in Brampton, Ontario. Dr. Ahluwalia discusses her session titled AI Scribing: Are you ready for it? Is it ready for you? She describes the factors that need to be considered using this technology include consent and privacy. She also shares the work that is being done on the Canadian Rheumatology Association’s Project Athena to help support rheumatologists using new technologies.
