Speaker: Ailish Samuelson, Lotus Timshel Collaborative Group P.C.
Can you describe how Blueprint's AI Notetaker has helped you? The more specific the better!
Ailish Samuelson: So blueprints. Uh A I note taker has helped me immensely with uh overall note management. Um, as a mother of 10 and uh a provider and my husband's a provider. We have very busy lives and I also find note taking daunting. I feel like I'm doing double work sometimes. Um And this has alleviated that, um, it makes it really simple. I have to make simple edits but it makes everything seamless and save so much time. It's worth every dollar I pay for that note. Um, because time is limited and life is short. So I can't tell anybody how much time this has saved.
How much time have you saved as a result of Blueprint's AI Notetaker? Have you re-invested this newfound time into anything notable?
Ailish Samuelson: To piggy back off of time is limited. Um I can honestly say that this is allowed me to stay caught up and not behind and not have that um overshadowing me or feeling that burden and uh feeling torn between spending time or doing activities with my Children or, you know, enjoying moments or missing moments that I'm still writing notes. Um after work, uh it's supposed to be done technically, after you finish seeing patients, um or, you know, having to stay late up late to get them done after the kids go to bed if I really want to spend time with them or having to get up early. So either way, uh somewhere in my life, I was losing something and somebody was going to pay for it, whether it was me, my Children. And now, um this has given me so much more time and peace of mind for someone like me who it's like, uh I always feel bogged down by it and like felt torn and different directions of my responsibility, what I needed to do. But also wanting to be a present mother.
How do you describe Blueprint's AI Notetaker to clients when it comes to obtaining consent? How do clients react?
Ailish Samuelson: And most of my clients have been pretty open to it. Um Few people have asked me about it. Um I have also incorporated into my um new patient packets so that allows them to consent or deny um consent to it and it doesn't bother me either way. Um But most people either we have more questions. I've only had a couple or most people have signed up for it. I have yet to have anybody that truly has rejected it and the people that have more questions I tell them um honestly, everything about it and I reassure them that it doesn't matter to me if you do it or don't. Um But that, you know, it basically gives me more patience, face to face time and doing things for patient centered care than being bogged down by administrative notes. Um So, but again, they have the right to refuse. It is their right. So if they're not comfortable with it, then they're not comfortable with it. I think the biggest thing for people is to hear that they're being reported. Um And that's that, that can be hard, especially in mental health, depending on um people's diagnoses But other than that, yeah.
