Testing an AI Tool to Help Primary Care Clinicians With Specialty Consultation Questions

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Decision Support Systems, Clinical, Referral and Consultation

In brief

The goal of this study is to test an artificial intelligence (AI) tool called SAGE. SAGE helps primary care doctors with questions that often need a specialist. Primary care doctors are the doctors people usually see first. SAGE reviews a case and suggests what a specialist might advise. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do doctors make sound, timely care decisions when they use SAGE? * Do those decisions match what a specialist would advise? Researchers will compare the decisions doctors make with and without SAGE. Doctors in the study will: * Review made-up patient cases (these are not real patients) * Make a decision for each case, their usual way and with SAGE
