Summary
Jesse chats with Dr. Christopher (Toff) Peabody, Associate Clinical Professor of Emergency Medicine at the University of California San Francisco, Founder and Director of the UCSF Acute Care Innovation Center, an d Associate Chief Medical Officer for Performance Excellence at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital ; and Dr. Lucas Zier , Interventional Cardiologist and Pulmonary Hypertension Specialist at Z SFG and UCSF Health . Together, they discuss the implementation of an LLM embedded in ZSFG's lean performance improvement process, how combining lean methodology with an LLM works in practice, overcoming data quality challenges with the LLM, a predictive model for readmissions for heart failure, a generative AI tool that summarizes patients' social and behavioral determinants of health, closing the gap between what a clinician intuitively knows they want from an AI tool and what they can actually articulate precisely enough for a developer to build, and much more. Jesse also reflects on this key headline : NBC News investigation reveals OpenEvidence is now used by approximately 65% of U.S. physicians.
