Almost a year after the implementation of the EMR, the Public Health Care Group EMC Healthcare in Indonesia is to update the AI -based system in health documentation management.
EMC Healthcare – brand Sarana Meditama Metropolitan – runs eight hospitals offering basic and specialized health services.
According to the media message, the healthcare provider accepts the “re -imagined EHR” system, which contains automated documentation through sound records in the environment, prepared check -up activities regarding the review of clinicists and coding supported by AI. His seller, intersystems, said that the hospital is the first in the region of Asia and the Pacific, which preview and testing the AI generative system.
Implementation of EMR
The healthcare company extended its group to take over hospitals. Initially, these hospitals were independent of various health information systems. These systems, mainly on paper, caused the challenges of clinicians and employees, including storage problems, reduced availability, risk of losses and damage, difficulties in sharing information, lack of standardization, lack of audit routes and restricted data analysis options.
To solve these problems, the management proposed the digitization of the hospital, the basis of which is a single, centralized.
“We started the EMR project in November 2021, when we signed a contract on the implementation of the Trakcare EMR system with intersystem. Then we started recruiting the implementation team, including superusators, training, collecting system requirements from all hospitals, system configuration and testing. The first page began in December 2022. Then the next pages began three months or about two months. Eight hospitals – said Jusup Halimi, president of Emc Healthcare, he said .
Medical documentation was also digitized, scanning over a million pages.
According to the hospital management, their biggest challenge was “getting an entry from our specialist doctors who are about 700 years old.”
“The management convinced doctors, and the Superuser team trained doctors to use Trakcare. After starting the Superuser team [continued providing] Help for doctors so that they feel comfortable using it. “
Turning to AI
The Emc Healthcare EMC journey did not end with this. He recently piloted the EMR system based on the same supplier. “AI is a future trend. If we don’t start using it, we’ll be behind,” Halimi exclaimed.
The President of the Hospital wanted to include in the EMR system tool support tools for clinical power. He said that they would provide predictive analyzes regarding risk stratification, personalized recommendations for treatment based on a wider patient data range and proactive notifications regarding potential complications, going beyond plain systems based on rules.
After the AI system remote control, EMC Healthcare sees that AI provides the greatest value in its consultation rooms at the clinic, daily hospital visits and emergency department.
“AI can support doctors in access to a comprehensive summary of the patient, which traditionally required navigation on many charts and screens. It was not only consumed by time, but also risks the lack of critical contexts,” noted Halimi.
“In the case of AI, we can present an intelligent review of a patient who consolidates data from various sources into one, structured summary, emphasizing key clinical results, observation trends, imaging reports, allergies and recent diagnoses. This gives doctors a full picture of the patient’s state of view, helping them take faster, safer and more informed decisions.”
“AI can reduce the load on the documentation through functions such as speech to the text and intelligent charts. When doctors and patients talk, artificial intelligence can prescribe the conversation and intelligently place the relevant information in the relevant EMR sections, regardless of whether it is the main complaint, allergy, diagnosis or plan. This allows doctors to maintain eye contact with patients, not with the computer screen. Experience becomes more human. “

The exploit of data using AI
Currently, EMC Healthcare uses a data warehouse system for storing patients, medical, clinical and financial data. Analytical tools are also used to display information. “We have a monthly meeting of review of results for the hospital, the data of which is separated by means of a tool so that we can deeply analyze the data,” said Halimi.
How does EMC Healthcare intend to exploit data using the AI -based EMR? The hospital manager claims that data and artificial intelligence will be used to enhance the support of clinical decisions, work efficiency and flow, as well as patients’ experience during hospitalization and for research purposes.
“We have a medical research committee that can be more active with the help of AI. For example, medical research using EMR data will be easier to do, because the data is easier to obtain.”
In addition to artificial intelligence, the EMR system emphasized Halimi, must have user -friendly interfaces that improve clinical work “instead of disturbing them”. It must also be “designed with attention to the user’s experience, without any problems integrating with the daily routines of doctors and nurses, minimizing clicks and providing relevant information at the care point without the user’s overwhelming.”
