Point of care agents - Amazon Connect Health

Point of care agents

Amazon Connect Health point of care features are AI-powered capabilities that streamline administrative workflows in outpatient clinical settings. Point of care agentic capabilities combine speech recognition, generative AI, and reasoning to reduce documentation burden for clinicians and back-office staff.

Point of care features operate within a domain that you provision in your AWS account. Each feature accepts inputs — such as a real-time audio stream of a patient-clinician conversation, patient context from the EHR, and a clinical note template — and produces structured outputs for provider review including clinical documentation, evidence mappings, and after-visit summaries.

At launch, point of care capabilities include patient insights and ambient documentation.
