How AI Can Screw You: OpenEvidence, AI Scribes, and the HIPAA Checkbox
Episode 174
Monday, 5 October, 2026
AI has moved into medical practice faster than almost anything in modern medicine. As clinicians lean on it more for documentation and clinical decisions, the pitfalls are getting harder to ignore. AI is a powerful bedside tool. It also has myriad ways to screw you. In this episode, emergency physician and clinical AI trainer Sam Ashoo breaks down how to use AI to help you think, how to frame questions to get answers you can trust, what AI scribes are most likely to leave out of the HPI, why clicking "accept" on an AI tool's business associate agreement can put your license at risk instead of protecting it, and how to keep this technology an adjunct rather than a crutch that harms you and your patients.Guest Bio: Sam Ashoo, MD, is an Emergency Physician and Medical Educator bridging the gap between bedside care and AI. As a clinical informaticist, I explore the future of medicine through a pragmatic, skeptic-first lens to separate clinical signal from hype. He writes at Ashoo Review.We Discuss:What training a medical AI looks like from the physician sideWhich specialties AI is most likely to reshape, and why procedural fields are safest for nowThe biggest misconception clinicians have about AI: it won't tell you what it can't doWhy omissions, not hallucinations, may now be the bigger riskWhat AI scribes most often leave out of the HPI, including mental health cues and medication changesWhy AI documentation turns you into an editor, and why most of us aren't good onesTreating AI like a smart intern, not the attending, and the rare cases where the reverse makes senseUpToDate vs. OpenEvidence: human-curated knowledge vs. machine-synthesized answersThe trap of asking AI a question you can't judge the answer toWhat "not software as a medical device" means for using OpenEvidence in the EDOne case, six LLMs, and how changing the question flipped the answer from "send her home" to "cath lab"A live OpenEvidence test: is a D-dimer reliable five days after symptom onset?Whether to document AI use, and whether your searches are discoverable in courtWhy "I can just ask AI" doesn't replace a fund of knowledgeHow med students, new NPs, and experienced attendings should each use AIAI scribe consent: the two steps most clinicians skip, and why all-party consent states matterWhy you shouldn't upload ECGs or X-rays for AI interpretationThe HIPAA business associate agreement checkbox that can put your license at riskMentioned in this episode:Doctoring Done Well | Bite-Sized WinsEvery other week, a few minutes of career-elevating insight delivered straight to your inbox.
