ModMed Achieves ASTP/ONC Certification Related to AI-Powered Scribe, Revolutionizing Provider Efficiency and Patient Care
BOCA RATON, Fla.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ModMed®, a leader in healthcare technology, announced today that its electronic healthcare records platform EMA® has achieved Assistant Secretary for Technology Policy/Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (hereafter ASTP) certification to the Predictive Decision Support Intervention (DSI) criterion.
Central to this certification is ModMed’s AI-powered ambient listening technology, ModMed Scribe™. This technology, which utilizes state-of-the-art AI natively built into EMA, was developed to help providers and practices significantly cut down on documentation time, enhance clinical workflows for providers, and facilitate patient care.
Redefining Clinical Workflows with AI-Powered Solutions
ModMed Scribe is trained on an extensive repository of structured, specialty-specific data, designed to help it better understand and capture medical language unique to each specialty. It goes beyond simple SOAP note transcription and works alongside EMA to suggest actions for downstream clinical workflows such as prescriptions, common lab orders and patient handouts.
This comprehensive functionality can lead to faster provider onboarding, seamless workflows and improved communication, setting a new standard for clinical documentation.
Meeting Rigorous Standards for Predictive Tools
In 2024, the ASTP’s HTI-1 Final Rule laid out extensive transparency and risk management requirements for predictive tools that are based on artificial intelligence. These rules are intended to ensure that Predictive DSIs are fair, appropriate, valid, effective and safe for use within certified EHR technology. This is critical for providers who need to trust and have confidence in the tools and technology they bring into the exam room.
ModMed’s certification reflects the company’s commitment to these principles, which support healthcare providers in delivering exceptional patient care.
“We understand the immense pressures facing today’s healthcare providers — from heavy workloads and complex documentation to the constant need to provide the best possible care,” said Dan Cane, co-founder and co-CEO of ModMed. “We pledge to continue to build transformative and safe AI that supports them in these efforts, and believe this requires a foundation of trust, transparency and a commitment to the highest standards of innovation. By achieving ASTP certification, we’re not only demonstrating compliance with standards but charting a new course for the responsible development and deployment of AI in healthcare.”
As part of the certification process, ModMed implemented a comprehensive Intervention Risk Management program. The program includes a governance framework, detailed policies and procedures, training and ongoing monitoring using third-party tools. These measures promote continuous oversight and adherence to the highest standards of quality and safety.
