Documentation Integrity in the Age of Generative AI: A Practical Guide for Clinicians, Leaders, and Risk Teams

Quinn, Campion

This book provides a clinician-centered framework for maintaining documentation integrity when AI assists with clinical notes. Generative AI systems now draft substantial portions of the medical record, altering how documentation errors arise and how they propagate across encounters. Fluent narrative improves efficiency but introduces patient safety and accountability risks that differ from those associated with dictation or templated text.

The book fills a gap between technical discussions of healthcare AI and operational clinical practice. Existing resources focus on algorithms, governance, or ethics. This book focuses on patient safety, informatics workflows, signing responsibility, and defensible use at the point of care. It treats documentation as patient safety infrastructure first and a legal artifact second. The book explains how errors enter AI-assisted notes, why clinicians miss them under time pressure, and which verification and review controls reduce risk without slowing care.

This is an essential resource for practicing clinicians who sign medical records and leaders responsible for documentation quality.
