Case Study: Arthritis & Osteoporosis Consultants of The Carolinas achieves 5–10 hours per week saved and 1+ additional patient per day with Augmedix

Less time charting means more time with new consults

Arthritis & Osteoporosis Consultants of The Carolinas — represented by Dr. Andrew Laster, a rheumatologist — was spending one to two hours daily on dictation and EHR entry, which increased stress and left patients feeling alienated during visits. The practice engaged Augmedix and its Google Glass–enabled remote scribe service to address documentation burdens and restore clinician–patient interaction.

Augmedix’s solution lets a remote scribe access the EHR, pre-populate notes, and provide coding support in real time, enabling Dr. Laster to save 5–10 hours per week, see one or more additional patients per day, reduce workload and stress, and spend more time on new consults and with patients.
