Microsoft introduces Dragon Copilot, an AI assistant for healthcare
By MYBRANDBOOK
In a remarkable feat achieved in terms of AI for healthcare, Microsoft has announced an AI assistant called Dragon Copilot for healthcare. The voice assistant can take notes, automate tasks and search for documents. Microsoft, through a newsroom post, detailed the new AI assistant specially designed for medical professionals.
Microsoft AI healthcare assistant is being offered as part of Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare, and it can record conversations, write clinical notes, draft referral letters, or even create post-visit summaries. It can combine voice dictation capabilities of Dragon Medical One, a tool built by AI voice recognition company, Nuance, and the ambient listening capabilities of DAX copilot.
As part of the Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare, Dragon Copilot offers secure architecture to ensure privacy and compliance.
Dragon Copilot will help doctors retrieve information from medical sources and write notes, post-visit summaries, and referral letters automatically. It will also help medical professionals to edit existing documentation. Further, it can even record and process verbal data from doctor-patient conversations in multiple languages and then combine that with information from medical sources to generate useful and summarised medical notes.
Microsoft further says that the AI assistant can also allow visitors or patients to ask about general-purpose medical information. While the tech giant did not detail any measures being taken to maintain data security and privacy, it stated that the Dragon Copilot's capabilities are built on a ‘secure data estate’ and offer adequate compliance safeguards.
Dragon Copilot will be generally available in the US and Canada in May. Later this year, the company also plans to expand it to European nations such as France, Germany, and the UK.
