Heidi Health raises $65M Series B led by Steve Cohen's Point72 | TechCrunch

"Dr. Tom Kelly is a trauma surgeon, and everywhere, he sees doctors drowning in administrative work. He wanted change, so he set out to build it. "We wanted to build an AI care partner that would stand alongside clinicians and take care of the admin so that individual providers, like me, can feel empowered to deliver the care which we dedicated our lives to," he told TechCrunch."

"In just 18 months, he said, the company has returned more than "18 million hours to frontline healthcare providers from more than 70 million patient visits in 116 countries." The product, as promised, is an AI medical scribe that takes care of all the admin work that hassles doctors. It can transcribe and dictate notes, generate personalized patient summaries, and even track tasks so doctors no longer have a need for sticky notes."
