Abstract

![CDATA[The use of voice assistant devices such as Siri, Alexa, Google Assistant, and Samsung Bixby in the healthcare industry is gaining a lot of attention nowadays. Many healthcare professionals believe that a clinically-oriented Voice assistant devices will ease the burden of accessing patient’s information, maintaining documents, and improve the patient experience. This paper presents a prototypic implementation of Alexa, named VC4 (voice controlled clinical coding companion), that can assist clinical coders by suggesting most appropriate ICD-10-AM and ACHI codes for a given clinical description through voice commands.]]
