Doximity (NYSE: DOCS), the leading digital platform for U.S. medical professionals, and Wolters Kluwer Health, today announced that UpToDate’s trusted, evidence-based, clinical content will be accessible directly within Doximity’s fast-growing AI clinical decision support tool, Ask.
In the coming weeks, clinicians at health systems using Doximity and UpToDate will see answers, based on content from UpToDate’s 13,000 topics and best practice guides, in addition to Doximity’s Ask answer. As one of the most widely used clinical decision support resources globally, UpToDate helps clinicians make confident decisions every day.
Nearly one in four medical questions can’t be answered by available research. Doctors treating the patient in front of them can’t wait for the evidence to catch up. In those moments, they may turn to the real-life experience of their peers, with UpToDate drawing on 7,600 expert clinicians, editors, and peer reviewers who regularly review clinical, drug, and patient content.
"Doctors know the value of a second opinion," said Jeff Tangney, CEO of Doximity. "With UpToDate available inside Doximity Ask, they can now get one instantly, from thousands of their peers, without leaving their workflow. Users can have both convenience and confidence."
