Problem
Medical Specialists Associated (MSA Dallas) noticed that their providers were spending significant time and money on traditional scribing services. Physicians were investing between $1,600 and $2,000 a month just to keep up with clinical documentation. As a result, doctors were taking on extra administrative work, often adding 5 minutes to each patient encounter. This cumulative effect pushed their schedules back, leaving doctors wondering why they were already an hour behind by early afternoon. The practice needed a modern solution that could alleviate this heavy workload and give providers their evenings back.
Solution
To address this, the practice implemented Sunoh.ai, an AI medical scribe. Almost immediately, the clinic achieved a 90% reduction in its traditional documentation costs. The ambient listening technology captures the natural patient encounter, saving doctors about four minutes per visit. As these minutes accumulate throughout the day, providers are finally able to leave on time. In fact, the monthly cost per physician dropped dramatically to about $150, making it a highly effective and sustainable financial decision.
