Let’s Work Together

NINE QUESTIONS THAT KEEP YOU IN THE ROOM

A working checklist for HIM and compliance professionals in an AI-augmented record.

HUMAN JUDGMENT — I interpret it.

  1. Where did this output come from — CAC logic, template language, ambient draft, or a human?

  2. Does the documentation support what was actually evaluated, treated, or measured in this encounter?

  3. Am I accepting this because it's correct, or because it's confident?

INTEGRITY — I stand behind it.

  1. If this chart is ambiguous, am I resolving it honestly or conveniently?

  2. Would I put my credential on this claim in front of an auditor?

  3. Have I flagged what I found, or only what was easy to fix?

MANAGED OVERSIGHT — I govern it.

  1. Who has authority to modify or reject this output before it's submitted?

  2. What are we monitoring on an ongoing basis — and who reviews the results?

  3. If this system failed quietly for six months, how would we know?

AI can carry the workload. It cannot carry the weight.
