Humans of Healthcare: AltaMed’s Multilingual Community

✨ AltaMed, the nation’s largest FQHC, is partnering with Abridge to support more than 500,000 patients in Southern California with Abridge’s industry-leading multilingual capabilities.

Recently, Dr. Efrain Talamantes, COO at AltaMed, conducted his first patient encounter using Abridge: "I’m impressed by the accuracy of the note based on our very fluid conversation in Spanish.” 

His patient, Esperanza Bahena, added: "Ahora que ya tenemos la nueva tecnología de Abridge, me siento más confiada, más contenta. Quiero que el doctor tenga más tiempo para hablar con él de mis problemas de salud cara a cara." 

“Now that we have the new Abridge technology, I feel more comfortable and happier. I want my doctor to have more time to discuss my health concerns face-to-face.”
