E81 - When AI Takes the Notes: A New Era for Autism and ADHD Assessments


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we dive into one of the most promising shifts in neurodevelopmental care: AI tools that capture and summarise clinical assessments in real time.An NHS trial at Your Healthcare revealed striking results—AI note-taking reduced administrative workload by up to 63%, improved the quality of written reports by 62%, and even boosted the quality of clinician–patient conversations by 44%.With nearly 800,000 people waiting for autism and ADHD assessments in England, these gains represent far more than efficiency—they point to a path for faster access, deeper clinical focus, and better outcomes for families.Clinicians describe Magic Notes as transformative: allowing them to be more present, observe non-verbal cues, spend less time working after hours, and deliver more consistent and accurate reports.We explore:• Why AI note-taking tools are becoming essential in neurodevelopmental diagnostics• How automation enhances—not replaces—clinical judgement• What early trials suggest about burnout reduction and work-life balance• And how regulatory uncertainty still threatens wider adoptionA closer look at how intelligent documentation could reshape mental health assessment in the years ahead.
