Transforming Medical Document Processing with the Medibrief AI System
Executive Summary
Medibrief transformed medical document processing by developing an AI-powered platform hosted on AWS that automates the intake, analysis, and summarization of complex medical and billing records. By integrating foundation models from Amazon Bedrock with serverless AWS services, the company reduced manual workloads, accelerated turnaround times, and achieved scalable, HIPAA-compliant processing for clients in the legal and insurance sectors. The solution now handles over 100 cases per day, delivering structured, case-ready reports in minutes instead of hours.
About the Customer
Medibrief is a health-tech company focused on solving one of the most tedious challenges in legal and insurance workflows – processing high volumes of unstructured medical documents. The platform helps legal firms, medical experts, and insurance providers transform raw files into structured, compliant case summaries, eliminating the need for hours of manual review while maintaining strict security and regulatory standards.
Customer Challenge
Prior to the transformation, Medibrief’s target customers relied heavily on manual processes to review, extract, and summarize handwritten and scanned documents, leading to significant inefficiencies, human errors, compliance concerns, and high labor costs.
Key Challenges:
High volume of unstructured, handwritten, and scanned records
Frequent extraction errors due to inconsistent data formats
Difficulty maintaining HIPAA and legal compliance
Poor scalability when handling multiple clients and large case volumes
These limitations slowed case resolution times and limited Medibrief’s ability to support large-scale clients across jurisdictions.
