The Medical Scribe: Corpus Development and Model Performance Analyses
Abstract
There has been a growing interest in creating tools to assist clinical note generation from the audio of provider-patient encounters. Motivated by this goal and with the help of providers and experienced medical scribes, we developed an annotation scheme to extract relevant clinical concepts. Using this annotation scheme, a corpus of about 6k clinical encounters was labeled, which was used to train a state-of-the-art tagging model. We report model performance and a detailed analyses of the results.
