- What is EvidenceMD?
- EvidenceMD is an AI clinical decision support platform for doctors and healthcare professionals. It answers clinical questions with transparent, step-by-step reasoning and grounds every recommendation in evidence from PubMed and peer-reviewed journals — and it also includes an evidence-based AI medical scribe.
- Is EvidenceMD better than ChatGPT for clinical questions?
- Unlike general-purpose assistants, EvidenceMD is purpose-built for medicine. It shows its clinical chain-of-thought, cites peer-reviewed literature and guidelines with each answer, and is specialty-aware, so clinicians can verify the evidence behind every recommendation instead of trusting an unsourced response.
- Does EvidenceMD have a mobile app?
- Yes. EvidenceMD is available on the web, on iOS via the Apple App Store, and on Android via Google Play, plus a Chrome extension for the AI scribe. Your history and workspace stay in sync across devices.
- Is EvidenceMD HIPAA compliant?
- EvidenceMD is built with a HIPAA-aligned security posture: data is encrypted in transit and at rest, and a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is available for eligible plans.
- Can developers build on the EvidenceMD API?
- Yes. EvidenceMD offers an OpenAI-compatible medical AI API so teams can add evidence-based clinical reasoning with citations to EHRs, telehealth tools and healthcare products. See the Medical AI API page to get started.
- Does EvidenceMD do CDI and utilization review?
- Yes. EvidenceMD reviews a completed note for clinical documentation integrity and utilization management: ICD-10 specificity, MEAT support, HCC recapture across prior visits, E/M level based on 2-of-3 medical decision making, CPT and charge-capture gaps, and denial risk. It also covers utilization review — inpatient versus observation using Two-Midnight Rule reasoning, and a structured ED utilization review. Every finding is anchored to a verbatim phrase from the note, so nothing is invented.
- Can I use the CDI and utilization review without the AI scribe?
- Yes. CDI/UR runs both ways. Inside the AI scribe you review the note that was just drafted and apply the findings back into it in one click, with revert. Standalone, you paste or upload a note from any EHR and get the same review plus standalone-only capabilities: qualitative DRG impact, non-leading CC/MCC query drafts, inpatient-versus-observation level-of-care review, and ED utilization review.
- How does EvidenceMD improve revenue integrity?
- It surfaces revenue the documentation has not yet earned credit for. Because the same clinical reasoning engine builds the clinical picture before it looks for a code, it catches unspecified diagnoses that lose a CC or MCC, chronic conditions that were never reassessed, procedures performed but never billed, missing modifiers and E/M levels the note actually supports. A separate coding pass attaches estimated Medicare reimbursement based on CMS RVUs, each suggestion tied to a verbatim quote so it holds up under audit. EvidenceMD supports certified coders and CDI professionals rather than replacing them.
