The workflow
- Ask whether your health system has turned on Art's draft result notes in the Epic In Basket.
- Open a lab or imaging result and let Art write a first draft of the patient note in everyday words.
- Check every value and statement in the draft against the result itself and fix anything wrong or vague.
- Add your own interpretation and the next step, then send it under your name.

Where it goes wrong
These are vendor/customer figures without enough methods on the cited page to establish causation. A clinician must check accuracy and the degree of reassurance before sending.
