Technology – small steps lead to big changes
Abstract
An efficient modern practice relies on technology and third parties as much as boots-on-the-ground staff. They are a necessity for delivering the great service that pet owners and patients alike expect to receive for ultimately better health outcomes.
When it comes to technology, there is no escaping the noise around developments in generative artificial intelligence, even when it comes to talk around practice management. Most people may even have seen the promise in trying programs such as ChatGPT for drafting documents or DALL-E for creating images from prompts. There are also a number of proven artificial intelligence tools available. There is a wealth of options to suit each practice for automating workflows, reducing the administrative burden, delivering quick test results, generating medical notes from diction and more. In an industry that is already stretched thin, these tools can be incredibly useful.
There are various examples of technology that practices can already use to make life easier. For clinical applications, diagnostics have made leaps and bounds to deliver quicker, cheaper and more accurate results. Through virtual laboratories and the instruments they are linked to, veterinarians can receive results of blood, urine and cytology tests within hours. No more sending them off, waiting around or need for third party consults.
