AI scribe, US private practice

Updated

wai is the AI medical scribe and clinical operating system for independent, concierge and direct primary care practices in the United States. It drafts the note, the letters and the ICD-10 codes from the visit in 11 languages, Spanish included, and nothing reaches a patient until the physician has read it and signed it.

A scribe writes the note. wai runs the practice around it, from online booking and deposits to messages, invoices and the patient app, and it runs every day at The Wellness, a private clinic in London.
