Dactyl: Giving doctors superpowers

We are crushing our doctors

Doctors today can spend up to an hour in front of the computer for every hour spent with patients. Medicine has become overly bureaucratic with an unending stream of documentation to produce and form to fill out. The US alone spends $1 Trillion (with a 'T') annually on healthcare bureaucracy.

This all comes at a time when we are facing record level shortages that will only increase as physicians approach retirement. (42% of the physician workforce are aged 55 or higher) And yet, we are expected to deliver more healthcare services as a result of the baby boomer generation retiring.

We are building Dactyl to change this.

Dactyl is the AI resident every medical worker wished they had.

The current healthcare experience is dominated by the EHR (Electronic Health Records). EHRs are large and complex platforms often designed more than 20 years ago to help physicians keep track of patient records, lab results, prescriptions, billing information, appointment scheduling, imaging, treatment plans, immunization records, insurance data, etc… These systems are unintuitive and tedious to use, meaning all of this record keeping has come at an unsustainable administrative cost and our healthcare system can no longer continue to bear it.

Dactyl is the new interface to the EHR, automating the bulk of administrative medical work. Simply ask Dactyl for something and it will handle the EHR manipulations for you. Transcribe notes, request patient summaries, or make changes to any record. You focus on the patient, Dactyl handles everything else.
