Operative reports drain the evening
Even with a templated dictation flow, operative reports take 15–20 minutes each. Multiply by a five-case day, and that's your evening.
Back to specialties
Orthopedics
An AI scribe built for orthopedic workflows
Operative reports, post-op visits, and PT referrals — drafted from the encounter with the right musculoskeletal ICD-10 and CPT codes.
The problem
What slows orthopedics down
MSK coding has too many right answers
Arthroscopy, joint replacement, and fracture care each have a stack of CPTs that change on subtle visit details. Easy to under-code complex cases.
PT referrals get written by hand
Every post-op visit ends with a PT referral letter — same structure, different patient. That's the kind of repetitive copy AI was built for.
