Testing an AI Tool to Help Primary Care Clinicians With Specialty Consultation Questions
Sponsor: Stanford University
Summary
The goal of this study is to test an artificial intelligence (AI) tool called SAGE. SAGE helps primary care doctors with questions that often need a specialist. Primary care doctors are the doctors people usually see first. SAGE reviews a case and suggests what a specialist might advise. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do doctors make sound, timely care decisions when they use SAGE? * Do those decisions match what a specialist would advise? Researchers will compare the decisions doctors make with and without SAGE. Doctors in the study will: * Review made-up patient cases (these are not real patients) * Make a decision for each case, their usual way and with SAGE

Interventions
SAGE (AI clinical decision support)
SAGE is an artificial intelligence (AI) based clinical decision support tool. It generates specialty-informed recommendations for a primary care consultation question. Physicians review the SAGE output while making a management decision for the synthetic case.
Standard eConsult
A standard electronic consultation (eConsult) format, without SAGE. Physicians review this information while making a management decision for the synthetic case.
