Kent Community Health NHS Foundation Trust is piloting AI technology in its community paediatric service. This initiative aims to reduce the administrative workload for clinicians, allowing them to focus more on patient care. The pilot will involve AI-generated notes and summary letters for up to 5,000 consultations over three months.
The AI technology, developed by the start-up Tortus, is designed to function effectively in noisy environments, which is common when working with children. All generated documents will be reviewed for accuracy to ensure quality. An independent evaluation will assess the technology's impact, with results shared to promote innovation in healthcare.
