Today $AUGX announced the most innovative Generative Ai workflow for ambient medical documentation in the Emergency Department leveraging the MedLM from $GOOG, a project in the works for over a year. “The work we've done on Augmedix Go in the ED demonstrates how the Augmedix team has worked to build a strong, long-term relationship with HCA Healthcare and provide us high-quality, successful deployments,” said Michael J. Schlosser, MD, MBA, FAANS, SVP, Care Transformation and Innovation, $HCA Healthcare. This announcement is strong evidence that $AUGX is developing a deep tech stack and a solution that has significant differentiation. Remember it was a year ago that Microsoft's Nuance DAX solution suite $MSFT lost the opportunity to partner with HCA. https://ir.augmedix.com/news-events/press-releases/detail/107/augmedix-launches-industrys-first-fully-automated

$AUGX Lake Street maintained a Buy rating on AUGX stock with an $8.00 target, aligning with Maxim Group analyst Allen Klee's Buy rating. Allen Klee gave his Buy rating due to a combination of factors surrounding Augmedix’s recent performance and future prospects. The company’s fourth-quarter earnings outpaced both internal and consensus estimates, showing a robust year-over-year revenue increase entirely from organic growth. The firm’s innovative service offerings, such as Augmedix Go and Go Assist, are gaining traction, notably with a planned full launch in partnership with $HCA Healthcare and $GOOG Google Health. https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/augmedix-a-strong-buy-on-positive-earnings-growth-prospects-and-strategic-partnerships-1033180976

Can't help but think how many $MSFT Nuance Shorty's are getting squeezed on the $GOOG + $HCA + $AUGX GenAi Ambient Medical Documentation solution that will hyper scaled. Here's a fun fact last year Nuance had 9,056 employees and today they have 5,881 a 35% decrease in workforce in a market that is about to go parabolic. My take on it is that when they bought Nuance they thought they had more runway to execute their strategy but then the Gemini MedLM Thunder Cloud rolled in an rained on their OpenAi because fundamentally the architecture of it doesn't work well in healthcare and is flawed. This is why Augmedix is now optimizing their note and documentation creation using multiple LLM's including their own proprietary ones created from 10,000,000 encounters over the past 10 years. With Augmedix management consistently delivering results it feels like the $60-$62 million forecast will come in more like $65 million which would bring in the break even target to mid-year 2025.
