Incident 17541 Report
California Health System Allegedly Used an AI Medical Scribe to Record Patients Without Consent

2025-11-26

A proposed class-action lawsuit alleged that Sharp HealthCare, a California health system, used Abridge, an AI medical scribe, to record patient-clinician conversations without notice or consent and send sensitive audio to the vendor. The documentation workflow allegedly inserted false statements that patients had been informed and consented. Patient Jose Saucedo said he discovered the recording through his medical notes.
