This randomized study compares AI-generated clinical documentation with traditional dictation templates during orthopedic consultations. Patients are randomized to have their consultation documented using either an AI medical scribe or a routine dictation template. Outcomes include surgeon documentation time, administrative processing time, time from consultation to note delivery to the family physician, patient satisfaction, and documentation accuracy.
