Abstract

This study evaluates the feasibility of using GPT-4 to automate precharting for specialty referrals, focusing on new patients referred to an otolaryngology clinic for nasal congestion. We describe the design decisions and strategies tested in creating this precharting utility, including methods for prompt design and token limit handling. Through iterative testing and building, our tool achieved 95…
