Microsoft Dragon Copilot is the new AI assistant for healthcare that can listen and take notes based on clinical conversations.
Microsoft launches Dragon Copilot, its new AI model for healthcare that combines the speech capabilities of Dragon Medical One (DMO) with the ambient AI technology of DAX Copilot (DAX). The model will be able to assist clinicians with various administrative tasks so they can focus on patient care. Dragon Copilot will be generally available from May in the US and Canada. The UK, Germany, France, and the Netherlands will follow later.
Administrative Assistance
According to Microsoft, Dragon Copilot can help users streamline their documentation through various features including multilingual ambient note-taking, natural language dictation capabilities, and voice memos.
Furthermore, the model is capable of performing general medical information searches from trusted content sources. Additionally, users can automate various tasks such as conversation commands, note summaries and clinical evidence, referral letters, and post-visit summaries, all in one centralized workspace.
