An Intelligent System for Healthcare Service Logging in a Medium-Sized Language

We present an intelligent system designed for the environment of a healthcare facility, such as a hospital or a nursing home. The aim of the system is to log the services carried out by the service provider (a nurse) without the need to choose individual items from a series of menus, which is currently the standard procedure. Instead, we used a voice recording of the nurses reporting their actions in a natural language, i.e. without particular voice commands, coupled with a fine-tuned Large Language Model (LLM). We discuss legal aspects related to recording and processing of conversations in a healthcare facility. We outline the implementation and present the results of tests using different types of LLMs. We focus on the Slovenian language, which can be seen as a medium-sized language, instead of English which is widely supported by LLMs. Our approach produces up to 97% both in precision and recall.
