Can You Build a Health Care System Without Notes?


Listen Later

Most transcription services and AI medical scribes aim to reproduce the SOAP note that has been the mainstay of patient visit records since the days of paper. Alex Butler, MD, Chief Product Officer at River Records, and his team started the company after reading a paper by Jake Kantrowitz, MD, PhD, Primary Care Physician & Chief Medical Officer, that led him to ask "Can you build a health care system without notes?" This video explains how River Records is working towards that vision.

Traditionally, a SOAP note documents a single visit. To see the trajectory of an illness—whether vital signs have improved or declined, what treatments worked and which didn't, etc.—a clinician has to page through numerous notes or use some external tool to extract information. In today's data age, information could be presented in a much more immediately useful, structured format.
