Tandem Health has initiated a collaboration with Medtanken Group, a leading Swedish healthcare provider with over 1,000 employees across Medtanken, Medpro, Omtanken, Hälsomedicinskt Center, Kvarterskliniken, and City Sjukhuset 7+. The partnership started with a successful pilot at 5 of Medtanken Group's clinics. Full-scale rollout is now underway, with Tandem already having been implemented at in total 15 Medtanken Group clinics.
"Tandem Health's service helps us improve information flow and allows us to spend more time on patient care. This is a welcome development in healthcare, where digital initiatives don’t always facilitate or create value for our patients. By automating medical notes, time is freed up to be used in more value-creating ways. We look forward to more great AI services in healthcare that make everyday life easier for healthcare staff and ultimately benefit the patient," says Fredrik Gunmalm, CEO of Medtanken Group.
During the pilot conducted with Tandem, more than 4,000 notes were created across 5 different clinics. Evaluation showed that over 80% of the notes created in Tandem were transferred to the medical records system within 30 minutes. The average time for these notes from draft creation in Tandem to being completed and transferred by the clinician was just 80 seconds. This means that the medical note is done and available in the medical record system, for both other clinicians and the patient themselves to see - in just 80 seconds from the consultation having ended. Tandem has thus enabled an overwhelming majority of notes to be quickly completed right after the patient visit.
"When I first heard about Tandem, I could hardly believe it. After actively using the solution, I must say that Tandem has exceeded my expectations. I save time, can fully focus on the conversation with the patient, and sometimes the notes are even better than if I had written them myself," says Oskar Smede, a physician at Medtanken Group and active user of Tandem.
“It has truly been a pleasure working with Medtanken over the past six months and hearing the positive feedback regarding Tandem. Medtanken clearly cares about its employees and wants to ensure they have access to the best tools. Now, it's incredibly exciting to implement Tandem broadly together, to ease the day-to-day for even more clinicians within Medtanken,” says Lukas Saari, CEO & Co-founder of Tandem Health.
