How Ambient AI Transforms Oncology Care

Why Ambient AI Is the Clinician’s Secret Weapon in 2025 📍Imagine seeing 25 oncology patients a day and still heading home by 4:30 PM—with no charting left to do. That’s the power of ambient documentation, and it’s already transforming healthcare through companies like Commure (formerly Augmedix). 🎙️ In a recent episode of the Delta Health Tech Podcast, Dr. Mitchell (oncologist) and Ian Shakil (founder of Augmedix, now CSO at Commure) explore how ambient AI is not just saving time—it’s creating richer, more complete, and legally protective documentation in real time. 🧠 Key insights: “Ambient scribes” are capturing nuanced psychosocial data and real-time treatment decisions. This technology has improved documentation quality, reduced burnout, and even helped resolve patient disputes. Augmedix, now part of Commure was the first to bring ambient to oncology, now tackling surgical workflows and beyond. 💡Takeaway: Tech founders in healthcare—don’t chase the next AI trend. Solve the hard, unsexy problems that truly matter. As Ian said: 👉 “The obstacle is the way. If it’s hot now, the ship has sailed.” 🔗 Listen now to the full conversation and join the movement toward better care, better workflows, and better lives.
