Medicine4Audit - Using text analytics to “cure” audits and reduce the burden on care personnel

[#1]

Team Name	Medicine4Audit
Track	Health care & Life Sciences
Use Case	Using text analytics to “cure” labor-intensive audits and lower the burden on care personnel Challenge Hospitals face a significant administrative burden when reporting clinical outcomes to national quality registries like DICA (Dutch Institute for Clinical Auditing). These forms are often manually filled out by medical professionals, consuming valuable time and resources. Solution Medicine4Audit proposes an LLM-based extraction pipeline that automates the retrieval of relevant data from clinical texts to populate DICA forms. By leveraging generative AI, the team aims to reduce manual input, improve data quality, and streamline the reporting process. Impact Efficiency Gains: Automating form completion could save hours per week for clinicians. Data Quality: Structured extraction reduces human error and improves consistency. Scalability: The solution can be adapted to other registries and hospitals.

This is a strong example of responsible, practical AI in action. Healthcare professionals still spend a significant part of their time on administrative work—sometimes up to a quarter of their workweek. The Medicine4Audit team set out to change that. Using SAS Decision Manager and a Large Language Model, they built an intelligent flow that automatically answers audit questions based on documents from the patient record and presents the results in a single, clear dashboard.

Less manual work means more time for patient care.
