ASR vs AI
reporting add-ons.
Both bring AI to the report. ASR (automatic speech recognition) also shares a record with the order, the images and the claim, so the report starts with full context and ends in a booked follow-up and a coded claim.
The difference
AI for the report,
or for the whole study.
AI reporting add-ons typically work on the report text, alongside your existing dictation, PACS, RIS and EHR. ASR is part of the platform that runs them.
| Capability | AI reporting add-ons | ASR on CIVIE |
|---|---|---|
| Radiology speech recognition, templates and macros | Typically from your existing dictation system | Built in |
| Works with your existing RIS and PACS over HL7 | Typically, yes | Yes |
| AI impression drafting | Yes, typically the core feature | Yes, from CIVIE's impression model |
| PACS, worklist and RIS | Uses your existing systems | CIVIE PACS, Universal Worklist and RIS on the same record |
| Follow-up recommendations | Varies; some track recommendations and contact referring physicians | Drafted as orders in CIVIE RIS for physician sign-off, then booked, authorized and billed |
| Coding and billing | Typically not included | CIVIE RCM codes from the signed report |

What ASR adds
The report, joined
to everything else.
Priors summarized for the order
CIVIE AI picks the relevant priors and summarizes their key findings before you start.
Measurements pre-filled
Measurements and technologist notes land in template fields, with units converted.
Coded from the signed report
CIVIE RCM starts coding the moment you sign, with no batch file and no second copy.

questions.
Both draft impressions. ASR also summarizes relevant priors and fills measurements from the study, because it shares a record with CIVIE PACS and RIS.
