Summary
The company intends to use the funds to accelerate product development, including automation capabilities, and to strategically scale its technology-enabled service across health systems and private clinics nationwide. Led by Manny Krakaris, chief executive officer, Augmedix turns natural clinician-patient conversation into medical documentation, in real-time, so that clinicians can focus on patient care. The platform is powered by a combination of proprietary natural-language-processing technology and medical documentation expert teams to provide clinicians with hardware, Smartphones or Google Glass, to securely stream the clinic visit to its cloud-based platform. Tech-enabled remote specialists utilize proprietary automation modules to generate medical documentation that is comprehensive and timely delivered. The service works with over 25 specialties and supports most EHRs.
