Over the past year, the adoption of ambient speech technology—solutions that use healthcare-specific language models to capture patient-provider encounters and contextualize them into structured notes—has surged exponentially (see below). Additionally, this technology has rapidly evolved in recent months, further enhancing provider documentation and even expanding beyond note creation. More and more, healthcare leaders are looking to ambient speech solutions to improve clinician satisfaction, documentation quality, and efficiency. This report—KLAS’ first to compare vendor performance in this high-performing space—examines how well vendors drive customer satisfaction and facilitate EHR integration; market insights around adoption and outcomes are also shared.
