QUAS employees interview almost every clinician before signing them up to use their ambient voice transcription product, and conducts another half-hour interview after the clinician has tried it for a while. Through this “pipeline of communication,” according to founder Daniel Shirvani, QUAS “builds the AI scribe that doctors want to use” with “less gimicky tools” but support for virtually any workflow.
A young company, QUAS started with family doctors and general practitioners, then expanded to hospitalists and gradually to most other specialties.
Basing features directly on user requests, QUAS has made some unusual choices. Whereas many health IT tools stress tight integration with popular EHRs, Shirvani says their clinicians are happy to cut and paste notes, and actually are leery of EHR integration in case a security breech could hurt the data.
Templates are supported for user customization, and the scribe can create common kinds of documents such as patient educational materials and referral letters.
As the tool “tries to be minimally invasive,” they support integration between the clinician’s phone and desktop computer, and let the clinician enter notes by hand that they don’t want to say during the patient interview.
Shirvani wants to evolve QUAS to be a “Swiss army knife.” Upcoming planned features include pointing out red flags and things to ask the patient, and making diagnosis suggestions.
