Case Study: CHRISTUS Health decreases cognitive load with Abridge

Christus Health Decreases Cognitive Load By 78% With Abridge

CHRISTUS Health, an international not-for-profit health system, was struggling with excessive time spent on documentation and the associated cognitive overload for its clinicians. Seeking to improve physician well-being and patient care, they turned to the vendor Abridge to implement its ambient solution.

By deploying Abridge, CHRISTUS Health saw a profound impact, including a reported 78% reduction in cognitive load and a 40% decrease in burnout rate among clinicians. The implementation was rapid, and physicians reported that Abridge was transformative, allowing them to focus entirely on their patients. Following a highly successful pilot, CHRISTUS Health signed an enterprise-wide deal with Abridge to roll out the technology across its primary care teams.
