AI Ambient Clinical Documentation Orchestra
An orchestra of six AI agents listens to natural patient-provider conversations in real-time, automatically transcribing speech, structuring clinical notes in proper SOAP format, suggesting ICD-10/CPT codes, identifying quality measure opportunities, and providing evidence-based clinical recommendations—all without requiring any manual input from the provider..

AI Agents
Specialized autonomous agents working in coordination
Documentation Orchestrator
Multiple AI agents processing the same encounter data need coordination to avoid conflicts, ensure completeness, and synthesize their outputs into a coherent final product.
Core Logic
The orchestrator coordinates all specialist agents, routing transcript segments to appropriate processors based on conversation context, managing inter-agent collaboration requests, resolving conflicts between agent outputs, and synthesizing the final documentation. It tracks overall progress and ensures all note sections are adequately populated before flagging completion.
Ambient Voice Transcription Agent
Capturing medical conversations accurately requires understanding medical terminology, accents, and the ability to distinguish between multiple speakers in often noisy clinical environments.
Core Logic
A specialized voice recognition system captures ambient audio from the clinical encounter, applies medical-domain speech recognition with 97.8% accuracy, performs speaker diarization to distinguish provider from patient speech, and streams the transcript in real-time with segment-level timestamps and confidence scores. It handles medical terminology, drug names, and clinical jargon.
Clinical Note Structuring Agent
Raw conversation transcripts are unstructured and don't map to standard clinical documentation formats. Converting free-flowing dialogue into organized Chief Complaint, HPI, ROS, Physical Exam, Assessment, and Plan sections requires clinical knowledge.
Core Logic
This agent analyzes incoming transcript segments, identifies clinical content type, and maps information to appropriate SOAP note sections. It extracts the chief complaint from patient statements, builds the HPI narrative from conversation flow, captures review of systems responses, documents examination findings from provider dictation, and structures the assessment and plan from clinical decision discussions.
ICD-10/CPT Auto-Coding Agent
Medical coding is complex, time-consuming, and error-prone. Incorrect codes lead to claim denials, compliance issues, and revenue loss. Coders must analyze documentation and map to over 73,000 ICD-10 codes.
Core Logic
As clinical content populates the note, this agent continuously analyzes diagnoses and procedures, mapping them to ICD-10 and CPT codes with confidence scores. It validates codes against documentation to ensure coding compliance, suggests specificity improvements, and collaborates with the note structurer to ensure documentation supports assigned codes for proper reimbursement.
Quality Measure Intelligence Agent
Healthcare quality measures (HEDIS, CMS) require specific documentation elements that are easily missed during busy encounters. Missing quality measure documentation impacts value-based reimbursement and population health metrics.
Core Logic
This agent maps patient conditions against applicable HEDIS and CMS quality measures, monitors the evolving note for required documentation elements, identifies gaps in real-time, and suggests additions to satisfy quality measure requirements. It tracks documented measures, missing opportunities, and potential quality improvements with direct impact on quality scores.
Evidence-Based Clinical Advisor
Providers cannot remember every guideline for every condition. Important evidence-based recommendations may be missed during encounters, leading to suboptimal care or documentation gaps.
Core Logic
The evidence engine monitors the clinical context and proactively surfaces relevant clinical guidelines from sources like AHA/ACC, ADA, and USPSTF. It identifies opportunities based on patient demographics and diagnoses (e.g., statin therapy for diabetic patients), provides guideline citations, and suggests evidence-based additions to the treatment plan with supporting rationale.
