I used to work in a hospital and one thing that was already tough was when doctors would copy massive (multiple page) notes that were mostly boilerplate, probably stored as some template in the EHR. After seeing the same note a few times, you started to learn which page to scroll to in order to view the relevant section for the patient. I would hope this system only generates clinically-relevant text for that patient, usually only 2-3 paragraphs for a standard consultation.
