Clinical Scenario
Wasilla Mental Health Hospital in Alaska was overwhelmed with documentation burdens. Without an EHR system, therapists like Dr. Emily Hargrave were manually typing long-form notes for each patient visit. Initial assessments could take 2–3 hours, and follow-up notes added additional strain. This slowed down patient care, reduced daily caseload capacity, and affected staff well-being. The hospital deployed S10.AI Medical Scribe to automate therapy note documentation. With tailored templates for both assessment and follow-up notes, documentation time was cut dramatically — from hours to just minutes. This freed clinicians to focus more on therapeutic engagement rather than admin work.

Outcomes After S10.AI Implementation

Following the implementation of S10.AI Medical Scribe, Wasilla Hospital experienced a dramatic transformation in clinical efficiency and operational outcomes. Initial assessment documentation time was reduced from 2–3 hours to just 15–20 minutes, while follow-up notes, which previously took 45–60 minutes, were completed in just 5–7 minutes. The hospital's documentation backlog, once a persistent issue, was entirely eliminated within one week. This newfound efficiency enabled a 25% increase in patient capacity. Compliance with documentation standards improved from 76% to 100%, and staff overtime was reduced by an impressive 93%. Financially, the hospital saw a monthly revenue gain of $12,800 and achieved a 480% return on investment within just three months. Clinician satisfaction also surged, with an 87% improvement reported through internal surveys—reflecting the significant impact of S10.AI on workload, morale, and overall productivity.
