What We Do
Knowtex captures natural conversation between a clinician and patient, identifies relevant medical information, and generates a pre-filled note with medical coding suggestions, for clinician review and sign-off.
For clinicians, we’re decreasing time spent on manual documentation and allowing them to focus on patient care. For healthcare organizations, we’re improving accuracy and efficiency in medical billing and coding to help with reimbursements.
