Launch HN: WorkDone (YC X25) – AI Audit of Medical Charts

I am not trying to be antagonistic, just earnestly trying to clarify.

The goal here of your wife's hospital is to try to increase revenue and the outcome, either AI assisted or not, is more accurate visit notes which leads to more accurate billing, which would lead to higher costs to the patient for the same medical care.

If that's right, I suppose a truer reflection of the medical care provided is a good unto itself, but I have to say I don't love the outcome as someone who's a patient and not a shareholder (401k notwithstanding).

Thank you for these thoughts. I think billing inefficiencies caused by documentation make both hospitals and insures lose - one will get paid later, one will pay anyway, but the process is costly for patients who finance both, in the end of the day :(
