IntelePeer, a prominent provider of healthcare AI operational infrastructure, has officially unveiled its SmartAgent™ Clinical Assessment Agent, an innovative voice-powered AI solution engineered to transform the post-procedure clinical landscape. Developed in strategic collaboration with the Michigan Orthopedic Center, this cutting-edge tool automates structured clinical assessments, converting patient interactions into decision-ready SOAP-format summaries that integrate directly into electronic medical record (EMR) workflows. By focusing on critical recovery metrics such as pain monitoring, wound status, and medication adherence, the solution significantly alleviates the administrative burden on clinical staff while ensuring earlier identification of potential complications through real-time red-flag screening. Highlighting the clinical necessity of the tool, Clay Dorenkamp, DO, Orthopedic Spine Surgeon and Chief Technology Officer at Michigan Orthopedic Center, noted: “Orthopedic care teams need timely, structured, and clinically meaningful information to assess patient progress, manage recovery, and identify post-operative complications. We worked closely with IntelePeer to create an Agentic AI solution with strong safety guardrails and close alignment with practice workflows, extending patient access to vital care information beyond the limits of traditional online gateways and call centers. By automating repetitive administrative functions, the solution helps free clinicians and staff to focus on delivering high-quality patient care.”
