Understanding Challenges

Our client faced substantial challenges in manually digitizing medical prescriptions. They handled between 500 and 600 prescriptions daily, received via fax for entry into the Epic healthcare system. Their back office team was manually digitizing it on a daily basis, with costs ranging from $4 to $8 per prescription.

A significant issue compounding this challenge was the difficulty in reading and interpreting doctors’ handwritten prescriptions, which are often illegible. This increased the time required for manual entry and led to potential errors, further affecting patient care and operational efficiency.

Not only was this process time-consuming but also costly, impacting the quality of patient care and the productivity of the back office team.

Solutions and Activities

We developed a product for the digitization of medical prescriptions using Azure OpenAI Services. Our GenAI solution excels in reading and accurately interpreting handwritten prescriptions, reducing the burden on the back office team and minimizing errors associated with manual entry.

We made this solution available both through a portal and via API integration with systems like Epic. In both cases, users can submit medical prescriptions and obtain structured information about the patient, treating physician, and diagnosis.
