Optical character recognition (OCR) followed by natural language processing (NLP) on scanned documents to expedite clinical care

Last updated

Share Print

Clinical care is frequently delayed because of the time it takes for staff to read and process outside medical records. We seek to use optical character recognition followed by natural language processing to classify documents and extract important clinical information from documents as they come in. This will allow us to streamline administrative processes and expedite clinical care.

This innovation is emerging and worth watching as it is being assessed in early implementations. See more emerging innovations.
