In this episode, we talk with Harvey Castro, a physician and health care consultant, about how artificial intelligence (AI) can help tackle the physician and nursing shortages in the United States. We discuss the contributing factors behind the shortages, the ongoing efforts to address them, and the potential role of AI in enhancing diagnostic and treatment capabilities, streamlining administrative tasks, and improving medical education and training. Join us for an insightful conversation on the future of health care and how AI can play a pivotal role in improving the overall efficiency of the health care system.

Harvey Castro is a physician, health care consultant, and serial entrepreneur with extensive experience in the health care industry. He can be reached on his website, harveycastromd.info, Twitter @HarveycastroMD, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. He is the author of ChatGPT and Healthcare: The Key To The New Future of Medicine, ChatGPT and Healthcare: Unlocking The Potential Of Patient Empowerment, Revolutionize Your Health and Fitness with ChatGPT’s Modern Weight Loss Hacks, and Success Reinvention.

He shares his story and discusses his KevinMD article, “Tackling the health care crisis with artificial intelligence: Combating physician and nursing shortages in the United States.”

The Podcast by KevinMD is brought to you by the Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience.

With a growing physician shortage, increasing burnout, and declining patient satisfaction, a dramatic change is needed to make health care more efficient and effective and bring back the joy of practicing medicine. AI-driven ambient clinical intelligence promises to help by revolutionizing patient and provider experiences with clinical documentation that writes itself.

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is a voice-enabled, ambient clinical intelligence solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 83 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Rediscover the joy of medicine with clinical documentation that writes itself, all within the EHR.
