NHS Pilots AI Tool to Automate Discharge Summaries at Chelsea & Westminster Hospital
The NHS is piloting an AI platform at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital to automate patient discharge summaries. By extracting diagnoses, test results and other details from medical records, the tool drafts the paperwork needed to send home fit patients, cutting hours of delay, freeing up beds and letting doctors spend more time on care. It’s part of a wider drive to digitise public services and reduce backlogs.
