AI Scribes Changed Everything. What Comes Next for Clinicians?

AI Scribes Changed Everything. What Comes Next for Clinicians?

Author: John Lynn February 13, 2026 Duration: 10:46

[SPONSORED] AI scribes have quickly become part of the daily routine for many clinicians. The question now is whether that momentum keeps building or slows as attention shifts to other operational priorities.

In this interview, Dr. Michael Blackman, Chief Medical Officer at Greenway Health, talks about what he is seeing on the clinical front one year after launching their ambient scribe. He shares why he thinks this approach to documentation is here to stay and why he views it as the first step rather than the finished product. He also touches on unexpected moments from early use and what he believes is possible next.

Do you think the pace of AI innovation will slow down or speed up or stay the same in the year ahead? Share your thoughts below.
