An AI medical scribe is software that helps draft clinical notes or summaries from visit audio, transcript, clinician dictation, or other encounter context. The output is typically reviewed, edited, and approved by a clinician before becoming part of the record.

Evaluation should focus on accuracy, review workflow, specialty templates, EHR integration, audio and transcript handling, PHI safeguards, BAA availability, and how the tool manages unsupported or uncertain statements.
