Pulsara Intelligence is designed to streamline clinical workflows by reducing the burden of manual data entry. By automatically extracting critical information from patient narratives, care teams can more rapidly create patient channels. Increased patient data supports better process Quality Assurance (QA) and facilitates consumption by integration partners, such as Electronic Patient Care Record (EPCR) systems.
