The Problem: Communication Breakdown
-
Time intensive
Healthcare professionals are burdened with tedious and error prone work. It's estimated they spend more than 26% of their time on documentation, rather than treating patients.
-
Confusing Documents
Discharge summaries are often technical in nature and difficult for patients to understand which can impact their adherence to the follow-up care instructions.
-
High Cost
Confusion and lack of adherence can result in unplanned readmission, which is estimated to cost $15-20 billion annually in the US.
Our Solution: Improving Patient Care
Clarifying Care has created a plug-in tool that quickly and effectively creates a patient-friendly discharge summary.
This allows hospitals to spend less time on paperwork, while increasing patient understanding.
How Does it Work?
Clarifying Care's tool leverages Langchain along with a local version of the Llama 2 LLM.
Utilizing Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and creative engineering, we created a succinct summary.
We leveraged industry standards along with expert feedback to focus on what a patient needs to know.
