alt Hacker NewsI can't speak for everywhere else, but here in the Bay Area (California), pretty much all hospitals use AI for transcription, summarizing, and some other stuff that I'm not fully aware of (I should really listen to what my Nurses say before agreeing to being recorded).

Sure, but are there any examples of hospitals where lowered costs for transcriptions are significant enough to affect their financial reports? How much of an expense was it in the first place?

Same here in Ontario Canada fwiw
My doctors office has started doing that and it throws the wildest crap into my chart. Diagnosis the doctor didn't mention, personal anecdotes that doc told me about their family become my family medical history. Test supposedly done that weren't.
Ive been trying to figure out some persistent si joint pain and my chart is full of me passing or failed tests nobody performed, observations nobody made and diagnosis that no doctor confirmed.
Its just so much wrongness, ive tried getting it corrected a few times when it really matters but its just so much wrong crap
