AI improves chart summarization, multidisciplinary rounding coordination and streamlines discharge planning and documentation
NEW YORK, July 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Wellsheet, a leader in AI clinical workflows and operations, today announced a new Care Team Copilot that combines chart summarization, multidisciplinary rounding and discharge, and AI-generated documentation into a cohesive user experience. Unlike AI scribes that document patient conversations, Wellsheet's AI reads the full patient chart and generates documentation based on that data in real-time, facilitating a natural workflow for inpatient settings that include multidisciplinary care teams spanning physicians of all specialties to nursing and case management.
Wellsheet's intuitive interface is embedded within all major EHRs, complements native EHR functionality and integrates easily into existing workflows. Its differentiated EHR-agnostic tech stack is also configured to allow health system IT teams to more quickly deploy enterprise wide and improve efficiencies and outcomes at scale.
"What sets Wellsheet's Copilot apart is its ability to hone in on the information I need, tailored to my role. As a physician, it summarizes the patient chart for me, cutting my chart review time in half, and as a Medical Director, it provides me with full census visibility to discharge barriers and other critical intelligence for managing throughput," said Dr. Viral Acharya, Medical Director and hospitalist at Ascension St. Vincent's. "The AI-generated summaries are a game changer; instead of opening a dozen notes, I can immediately see what matters most in that moment and jumpstart my documentation with ease."
Wellsheet's AI Copilot is built to meet the specific needs of multidisciplinary care teams working in collaborative, fast-paced environments and includes the following new core features:
- Chart Summarization & Embedded Decision Support: Contextual clinical views adapt to the user's specialty, role, and usage patterns to bring together relevant chart data and AI-generated narrative summaries for hospital course, assessment and plan, and other documentation needs. AI-driven chart summarization and an UpToDate integration helps guide treatment decisions, surfacing relevant content prefilled with patient data from the chart, such as Clinical Pathways, Calculators, Lab Interpretations and other UpToDate content.
- AI-assisted Discharge Planning: Provides an MDR dashboard with Geometric Mean Length of Stay (GMLOS) and Average Length of Stay (ALOS), and AI-driven alerts for patients due for discharge, anticipated discharge, discharge disposition, all within handoff and chart views in Wellsheet.
- AI-generated Inpatient Documentation: AI reads the entire patient chart to generate documentation (hospital course, assessment and plan, discharge summaries) based on that data, providing a more natural workflow for inpatient settings.
According to the AMA, physicians spend 57.8% of their time in the EHR, while additional studies show that care teams can spend an average of 419 minutes from order to exit in the charting and discharge process, nearly 3.5x health systems' target process time. With Mercer projecting a deficit of over 100,000 healthcare workers in the US by 2028, using staff time wisely is more important than ever. With Wellsheet, clinicians have reduced charting time by 50%, hospitalists save 90 minutes on inpatient stay documentation, and health systems have seen an average 12-16% reduction in length of stay and achieved standardization of multidisciplinary rounds.
"Wellsheet's Care Team Copilot is like having another member of your care team continuously reviewing the entire patient chart, recommending care pathways, and drafting your documentation for you," said Craig Limoli, CEO and Co-Founder of Wellsheet. "We're thrilled to deliver the first care team copilot that facilitates multidisciplinary care at enterprise scale, ensuring that every clinician can reap the benefits of the latest advancements in AI-enabled clinical workflows."
Healthcare systems are under increasing pressure to streamline operations and reduce the complexity of managing multiple vendors, with a growing number of large health systems turning to Wellsheet for its integrated, scalable solution. Wellsheet has been deployed nationally, enterprise-wide, to over 75 new hospitals over the past 12 months and is currently deployed with leading health systems including Ascension, IU Health, and Concord Hospital Health System.
