Epic Systems has launched an AI Charting tool that uses artificial intelligence to automatically populate parts of the electronic patient record.[1] This tool listens to in-person or virtual visits with the patient's consent and creates draft notes from the visits, reducing time spent on documentation.[3] Group Health Cooperative of South Central Wisconsin became the first health organization in the world to implement this tool.[3] According to preliminary data, Epic has saved the clinic up to 60 minutes a day, reduced note-taking time, and improved the well-being of both clinicians and patients.[3] Epic is working on more than 160 AI projects, including an AI Charting tool that will be ready for limited use in early 2026.[1] Other AI features planned for 2026 include discharge planning agents, preoperative risk calculation, and MyChart virtual assistant.[1][2] The tool works with Microsoft Dragon Ambient AI technology for transcription and diarization.[1] Epic is also expanding AI tools Art for conversational search of patient records and Penny for tracking insurance claims.[2]
