Modality Partnership with AI medical scribe Heidi Health
Modality Partnership, the NHS’s largest GP super-partnership, with more than 360 GPs across 53 sites, has partnered with Heidi Health to implement the UK’s largest clinical rollout of ambient AI. Starting now, Heidi’s AI medical scribe, which reduces the administrative burden for clinicians by automating administrative tasks, will be integrated across Modality – benefiting almost half a million registered patients nationwide.
The partnership comes at a critical time, with the NHS facing unprecedented workforce shortages. A recent survey by the Royal College of GPs has found that 42% of UK GPs are unlikely to be working in general practice in 5 years’ time, with over half (51%) citing stress as their primary reason for leaving the profession. Workforce pressures are being exacerbated by the significant amount of time clinicians spend on admin, limiting their ability to interact with patients while escalating the risk of burnout.
