Differential Diagnosis with AI

Automate note-taking for doctors, save time and cut down mistakes.

Problem

Between 10% and 15% of medical diagnosescontain errors, with 17% responsible for serious adverse events in hospitals [1].

This results in inappropriate treatments,disease progression due to delayed diagnoses, and additional costs tohealthcare systems.

Physicians face an overload of clinicalinformation, time constraints, and pressure to make quick decisions, increasingthe likelihood of errors.

Why it matters

Patient Impact: In the U.S., approximately 12 million adults annuallyexperience diagnostic errors in outpatient care [2]

Economic Costs: Diagnostic errors generate additional expenses ofapproximately $100 billion annually in unnecessary tests and treatments [3].

Clinical Impact:Physicians spend 40% of their timeanalyzing records, limiting effective decision-making time [1].

Solution

A differential diagnosis tool powered by  Artificial Intelligence (AI) to:

- Reduce diagnostic errors by prioritizing  clinical data and updated scientific literature.

- Optimize physician time by delivering  quick and reliable responses to support critical decisions.

- Enhance diagnostic accuracy, improving  patient safety and reducing avoidable complications.

- Ease cognitive overload by providing  access to updated information and avoiding the burden of analyzing thousands  of new publications annually.

Opportunity Cost

Additional Costs from Diagnostic Errors:
AI-powered tools can reduce costs related to diagnostic errors by one-third.
Diagnostic errors account for approximately 15% of total healthcare costs inhospitals [1].

Productivity and Time Optimization:
These tools increase physician productivity by 25% per day, considering thatanalyzing complex diagnostic cases consumes this time on average.


Impact

The tool provides rapid, specific differential diagnoses by inputting patient symptoms,diseases, organ systems, and more, resulting in improved clinicaldecision-making. AI-powered differential diagnosis tools can reduce errors byup to 30% [2], enhance patient safety, increase physician productivity by 25%, and reduce operational costs by minimizing unnecessarytests and hospitalizations due to misdiagnoses.
