Slate publishes one clinician’s take on the patient relationship-building benefits of AI-powered clinical documentation software: “Dax doesn’t save me time writing my note or make clinic go any faster. But it does allow me to connect meaningfully with my patients …. To accompany them on their journeys, to bear witness to their joy and suffering with my full presence. It creates a sense of time and spaciousness I haven’t experienced in the exam room since I was a medical student, before the pressures of productivity analytics set in.”
