Product design question

Clinicians report that an Abridge-generated note is 'usually right,' but they still review every line before signing. How would you determine whether the trust gap comes from factual errors, missing high-salience details, poor transparency, workflow friction, or medicolegal risk perception? Based on that diagnosis, what product changes would you make to increase trust without encouraging unsafe over-reliance?

What this question tests

Tests root cause diagnosis of a trust gap in AI generated clinical notes and designing fixes that build appropriate, not blind, trust.

How to approach it

  1. Clarify the question: is the gap driven by factual errors, missing salient details, poor transparency, workflow friction, or medicolegal fear.
  2. Pull objective error data first, for example correction rates per note by specialty, to see if perception matches actual accuracy.
  3. Interview clinicians who review every line despite low error rates, since that gap points to transparency or liability fear, not quality.
  4. Check whether the note shows provenance, since opacity about what is transcript versus inference drives blanket re review.
  5. Design targeted fixes from the diagnosis, such as inline confidence highlighting for low confidence sections, while still requiring review of medication and allergy lines.
