Background: With the widespread adoption of electronic medical records, the volume and complexity of clinical documentation have increased substantially, placing growing pressure on traditional manual medical record auditing processes. Audit efficiency, consistency, and governance stability have become critical challenges for health information management. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a human–AI collaboration–assisted dual-track medical record auditing system using a page-based efficiency perspective, and to examine its implications for internal control, risk management, and quality governance. Methods: A quasi-experimental pre–post design was employed to compare medical record auditing processes before and after Human–AI Collaboration. In addition to audit turnaround time, page-based workload, defined as the number of pages requiring manual review, was used as the primary efficiency indicator. The dual-track model consisted of AI-based pre-audit screening followed by human professional oversight. Page-based efficiency outcomes were compared between traditional paper-based auditing and the human–AI collaboration approach. The study period was from October 1 to October 15, 2025, and a total of 300 discharged medical records were collected from a regional hospital. Results: After implementation of the Human–AI Collaboration dual-track auditing system, the mean number of pages requiring manual review per medical record decreased from 30.90 to 15.34 pages, representing a reduction of 15.56 pages and an overall efficiency improvement of 50.36%, p-value < 0.001. AI-based pre-audit screening effectively transformed the auditing process from comprehensive page-by-page review to exception-based review of flagged items, substantially reducing manual workload while maintaining audit sensitivity. As the system matured, the proportion of cases requiring human review declined, indicating concurrent improvement in documentation quality and rule stability. Conclusions: From a page-based efficiency perspective, the AI-assisted dual-track medical record auditing system significantly reduces manual auditing workload while preserving professional oversight. Beyond operational efficiency, this model strengthens internal control mechanisms, enhances risk prevention, and supports defensible documentation quality. The findings suggest that AI-assisted auditing represents a governance-oriented transformation rather than a mere process optimization. |
