RUSH Partners with Suki

RUSH University System for Health, an academic health system, will trial the AI Assistant from Suki, a provider of voice artificial intelligence (AI) technology for healthcare.

With deep electronic health record (EHR) integrations and capabilities like ambient note generation, seamless coding, and dictate and command modes, Suki operates as a full-fledged assistant for clinicians and health systems.

With bidirectional integration with Epic, Suki fits into RUSH's workflows. Clinicians can pre-chart in Epic and finish their notes in Suki or start a note in Suki and pull in the latest data, such as vitals and lab results, from the EHR.The integration will allow RUSH clinicians to improve efficiency from disease management to prevention across more than 30 specialties.

"After using other AI documentation solutions, Suki stood out to us for its depth of integration with Epic, ability to do more than documentation, and competitive cost. We understand the profound impact that AI solutions can have on our clinicians as well as patient care and are excited to introduce Suki to our network," said Dr. Bina Desai, chief medical informatics officer of RUSH, in a statement. "Our commitment to providing the best care stands at the core of everything we do, so we are excited to see how the solution will boost engagement and reduce burnout."

"Suki Assistant is a true assistant that does more than just documentation. As more clinicians gain access to it, they will be less burdened by the time-consuming administrative work that leads so many to experience burnout and leave medicine," said Jallel Harrati, senior vice president of sales and partnerships at Suki, in a statement. "We are excited to team up with RUSH, an innovative organization whose values are completely aligned with ours. By working together, we will give clinicians more time and mental energy to focus on their patients and create unparalleled satisfaction for patients and clinicians alike."
