AI scribes for clinical notes
Ambient AI scribes promise to give clinicians their attention back. Early studies are encouraging but mixed, and design details decide whether the promise holds.
Evaluating clinical AI before use
Good test-set performance is only the first of four checks. A practical guide to the others, using the reporting guidelines the field already agrees on.
Protecting patient data in AI systems
Health data protection depends less on policy documents than on where data goes, who can reach it, and what is kept. Six architecture choices that make privacy hold.

Most clinical AI projects that stall do so at the interface, not the model. Why integration should be designed first, and what FHIR and SMART on FHIR do and don’t solve.
Measuring time saved by AI tools
Claims that AI saves hours are easy to make and hard to check. A practical approach to measuring what actually changes before, during, and after rollout.
