Effect of AI Assisted Documentation in Primary Health Care on Time Saving, Patient Satisfaction and Health Care Provider Satisfaction

Background There is currently no research evidence from randomized trial settings on the effectiveness of AI-assisted documentation. The aim of this study is to provide evidence regarding cost-effectiveness, professional experience, and patient experience. Design Physician consultations participating in the study are randomized into AI-assisted and traditional documentation groups in a 1:1 repeated crossover design. The goal is to include approximately 1,000 consultations per group. Methods Professionals will be asked to provide their own assessment of potential time savings, and the time spent on documentation will be measured using technical data from the documentation tools (cost-effectiveness). Additionally, professionals will complete baseline and follow-up surveys (professional experience), and patients will be sent a survey following the consultation (patient experience).
