This week, we’re proud to launch our new webinar series, “The Surgeon’s Record,” presented by Commons Clinic, which continues our mission of amplifying top voices and big thinkers from the healthcare community. Our webinars will be released monthly with a focus on value-based specialty care, care delivery innovation and other timely topics. We hope you find these webinars educational, thought-provoking, and the perfect adjunct to the weekly long-form newsletter posts.
To that end, I’m proud to present my conversation with Nick Aubin, CEO of Commons Clinic (and staunch TSR supporter), and Dr. Dean Dalili, Chief Medical Officer of DeepScribe. (Click below to view the webinar).
Commons Clinic is redesigning care delivery to make the next generation of value-based specialty care a reality. DeepScribe transforms patient conversations into actionable clinical intelligence through Ambient AI. Given their respective missions, a partnership between the two companies is a natural fit.
In this episode, Nick, Dean, and I delve into the power of Ambient AI to improve workflows, enable rich data capture, and support the movement towards value-based specialty care.
Key highlights from the conversation:
Health tech has struggled to realize its promise of making care more efficient. Ambient AI scribe technology like DeepScribe is reversing that trend. Early returns are favorable. What’s more encouraging? Dean thinks we’re only in the third inning. As AI tech gets better, its clinical impact will be felt even deeper.
Nick highlights the Holy Grail of healthcare technology and a key component of Commons Clinic’s ethos—increasing clinician freedom and autonomy. The halo effects of more efficient processes are myriad: more time spent taking care of patients, more time finding solutions to difficult problems, and (not to be forgotten) more time to recharge.
The conversation left me with a tantalizing vision of a future where technology is leveraged to create a living, breathing record of the patient journey. A record that not only accurately reflects each patient’s personal history but also surfaces precise insights for clinicians. Personalization and precision—the definition of value-based care.
An enjoyable conversation, and the first of many more to come in our series of webinars. Next week, we’ll be back with the usual TSR post, including quick takes, our weekly poll and visuals, and voice from the community.
Before we go, a quick update and small request. We’ve experienced steady growth in subscribers and consistent engagement with our posts.
At The Surgeon’s Record, our goal is to deliver engaging, high-quality content that stimulates meaningful conversations. Launching our webinar series is another step on the path to providing engaging, high-quality content. Thanks to those who continue to support us. We’re just getting started.
