Eka Care launches EkaScribe, an AI medical scribe tuned to Indian clinical settings, leveraging its own large language model, Parrotlet, to convert doctor patient conversations into structured medical notes.
Glimpse:
Eka Care has introduced EkaScribe, positioning it as India’s first ambient AI medical scribe tailored for the complexities of Indian healthcare. Using its in house LLM, Parrotlet, the tool transcribes multilingual, noisy conversations in OPDs into prescription-ready clinical documentation. The system is designed to reduce physician documentation burden while maintaining regulatory and data sovereignty safeguards.
Eka Care has launched EkaScribe, which it describes as India’s first ambient AI medical scribe, specially designed for the Indian healthcare context. The system is built atop Eka’s proprietary large language model, Parrotlet, and aims to convert free flowing doctor patient dialogues into structured clinical notes and prescriptions.
Key differentiators of EkaScribe include:
Multilingual & Noisy OPD support:
The model is tuned to understand hybrid Hindi English speech, regional accents, and interruptions common in high volume outpatient settings.
Prescription ready output:
Unlike simple transcripts, EkaScribe generates finalized clinical notes including drug dosages, follow ups, medical codes, and structured data points ready for EMR integration.
In house LLM for domain fidelity & sovereignty:
By building Parrotlet internally, Eka can better align the model to Indian drug names, clinical terminologies, local workflows, and compliance frameworks (like DPDP).
Safeguards against hallucinations:
The system employs layered validation, retrieval augmented generation, doctor in the loop, and secondary LLM checks to ensure accuracy in outputs.
In early trials, doctors have reported that EkaScribe helps shift their focus back to patients less time typing, more eye contact, and better documentation continuity. Hospitals are evaluating its integration into existing EMRs, OPDs, inpatient workflows, and OT settings.
Eka Care frames EkaScribe as an assistant, not a replacement a tool to scale high quality documentation while preserving human clinical judgment.
“Doctors often spend more time typing than listening. With EkaScribe, we want them looking at patients again not screens.”
