Abridge

Abridge records and summarizes medical conversations between doctors and patients, generating structured clinical notes in real-time. The AI captures symptoms, diagnoses, treatment plans, and follow-up instructions, formatting them into EHR-ready documentation. The tool is designed to reduce the documentation burden that contributes to physician burnout. Instead of typing notes during or after appointments, clinicians can focus on the patient and let Abridge handle the documentation. It integrates with major electronic health record systems. Abridge has been deployed in major health systems including UPMC and is built with healthcare-specific language models that understand medical terminology and conversation patterns. The accuracy is high for structured clinical encounters, though complex multi-problem visits may require physician review and editing.
