‍Beyond AI Scribes: EHR Automation Is the Key to Reducing Physician Burnout

‍The Problem: AI Scribes Alone Don’t Solve Documentation Fatigue

^{AI scribes entered the market promising to}^{free doctors from the burden of documentation}^{. They transcribe patient conversations, generate notes, and claim to reduce admin time. But here’s the reality:}

^🔴^{Physicians are still spending extra time reviewing and editing AI-generated notes.}^🔴^{They still need to manually copy and paste notes into their EHR.
🔴 Orders, prescriptions, and diagnoses still require multiple clicks in the EHR.}

^{For many physicians, AI scribes alone haven’t eliminated after-hours charting. The real problem isn’t just transcription—it’s the entire EHR workflow.}

The Shift: From AI Note-Taking to Full EHR Automation

^{If AI scribes were the solution,}^{why are physicians still charting late into the night?}^{Because documentation isn’t just about writing notes—it’s about:}

^✅^{Updating patient history and diagnoses}^✅^{Ordering prescriptions and treatments}^✅^{Navigating complex EHR interfaces}

^{This is where EHR automation changes everything. Instead of just generating notes, automation eliminates clicks, updates records, and integrates directly with the EHR—without manual work.}

How EHR Automation Transforms Documentation for Physicians

^{1. AI That Does More Than Just Write Notes}

^{AI-generated notes still require manual entry into EHR fields—Contrast eliminates this by automating the entire process.}
^{Instead of reviewing and transferring AI-generated text, physicians can approve notes, orders, and prescriptions in a single click.}

^{💡 Example: A doctor discusses a new medication with a patient.}^Contrast^{automatically fills out the prescription order, ready for approval—no extra steps needed.}

^‍^{2. Smart EHR Integration: No More Copy-Pasting}

^{AI scribes that don’t integrate with EHRs require doctors to copy and paste every note manually.}
^{Contrast’s bi-directional EHR integration ensures patient history, diagnoses, and medications are automatically included in every AI-generated note.}

^{💡 Example: A cardiologist reviewing a patient’s visit doesn’t have to search for past prescriptions—Contrast automatically pulls relevant history into the AI-generated note.}

^‍^{3. Click Reduction = More Time for Patients}

^{Physicians waste hours clicking through drop-down menus to enter diagnoses, order tests, or update notes.}
^{Contrast automates these clicks, completing EHR tasks instantly based on the physician-patient conversation.}

^{💡 Example: After discussing treatment options, Contrast fills in the required diagnoses and treatment codes, so physicians don’t have to.}

^‍^{EHR Automation or Bust}

^‍^{AI scribes were a step forward, but physicians need more than just transcription—they need real automation.🔹 EHR automation eliminates the need for extra clicks, manual edits, and copy-pasting.
🔹 Physicians complete documentation in minutes—not hours.
🔹 Doctors can finally reclaim their time and reduce burnout.🚀 Don’t settle for just an AI scribe—experience full EHR automation with Contrast.}
