Astera Cancer Care, a partner of the One Oncology Network, is proud to announce a transformative partnership with Knowtex, a leader in trustworthy artificial intelligence (AI) solutions, to deploy advanced voice and generative AI workflows tailored specifically for oncology. This collaboration aims to enhance the overall efficiency and effectiveness of cancer care through seamless integration with their electronic medical record (EMR) and revenue cycle management.
The innovative AI solutions will allow clinicians to remain hands-free and fully engaged during patient encounters. By automating and streamlining documentation, billing, and order functionality, this partnership will significantly improve practice efficiency and patient outcomes.
Benefits for Providers, Patients, and Staff:
- Enhanced Patient Care: Clinicians can focus more on patient interactions without the distraction of manual documentation, resulting in a more personalized and attentive care experience.
- Increased Efficiency: Streamlined workflows reduce administrative burdens, allowing providers to see more patients and spend more time on direct patient care.
- Improved Accuracy: Automated documentation ensures comprehensive and precise records, reducing the risk of errors and improving the quality of care.
- Seamless EMR Integration: Robust integration with existing EMR and revenue cycle management systems ensures a smooth transition and maximizes the use of current technology infrastructure.
Dr. Edward J. Licitra, CEO of Astera Cancer Care, emphasized the transformative potential of this partnership: "Our collaboration with Knowtex marks a significant step forward in delivering exceptional cancer care. By integrating advanced AI workflows, we can ensure our clinicians are fully focused on their patients, leading to better outcomes and a more efficient practice."
