With up to 30 consultations daily of 15 minutes each, documentation is a significant part of work. Time savings that don't affect patients are needed.
Journalia always follows health authority current recommendations. The most up-to-date guidelines are "Quality assurance report: Use of artificial intelligence in health and care services", published January 10, 2025.
The artificial intelligence Journalia uses listens, transcribes in real time and summarizes consultations between doctor and patient. Journalia does not offer decision support - only speech to structured text, in line with what the health authorities considers safe. Therefore, Journalia does not require CE approval as medical equipment.
Doctors who use AI for transcription must inform patients through a poster in the waiting room. If individual patients have particular needs for more information, the doctor must assess this. Download posters for use in the waiting room here.
If you need to explain Journalia, you can inform the patient:
“I will use a transcription tool that summarizes the medical consultation in writing afterwards. The result is that I update your medical record faster and more comprehensively. Everything is in accordance with GDPR laws and access is limited to me as your doctor. Audio recordings are never stored and the written summary is always permanently deleted within 24 hours.”
Health authorities assess AI using: need, risk, benefit and competence. Automatic speech to text for medical documentation is well suited for AI.
With up to 30 consultations daily of 15 minutes each, documentation is a significant part of work. Time savings that don't affect patients are needed.
Secure login, real-time transcription visible only to the doctor, encryption and deletion per strictest standards, plus no decision support makes risk low.
Less documentation time means shorter patient waits, more flow, less evening work, and better recall. Monthly cost is exceeded by time saved and improved care.
System validation, Nordic healthcare adaptation and competence preservation are crucial. 200+ doctors from Dr.Dropin ensure the tool adds value and safety.
