We sit down with Carol Raye, a patient advocate who shares her personal journey with a life-threatening C. difficile infection. Join us as Carol sheds light on the challenges she faced, the importance of responsible antibiotic use, and her mission to raise awareness about this growing health care issue. Discover how her experience has shaped her advocacy work and the urgent need for better treatment options.

Carol Raye is a patient advocate.

She discusses the KevinMD article, “A life-changing illness started with a popcorn kernel and just-in-case treatment.”

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.

Together, Microsoft and Nuance are leveraging their rich digital technology and advanced AI capabilities to tackle some of health care’s biggest challenges. AI-driven technology promises to revolutionize patient and provider experiences with clinical documentation that writes itself.

The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is a voice-enabled solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. DAX Copilot combines proven conversational and ambient AI with the most advanced generative AI in a mobile application that integrates directly with your existing workflows.

Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 85 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Discover AI-powered clinical documentation that writes itself. Visit https://nuance.com/daxinaction to see a 12-minute DAX Copilot demo.
