    LCMC Health Improves Clinician Efficiency and Retention with Nabla

    As health systems continue to navigate workforce shortages and rising administrative burden, leading organizations are rethinking what it takes to support and retain clinicians. At LCMC Health, a Louisiana-based health system serving communities across the Gulf South, that meant investing in solutions that directly improve the day-to-day experience of care delivery.

    After piloting several leading solutions, the team selected Nabla not only for the reliability and accuracy of its technology, but also for the strength of the partnership and alignment in values.

    “Two of our LCMC values are ‘We’re in it together’ and ‘We give a little extra,’ so when we are looking for partners, we look for that same alignment, We feel like Nabla has worked together with us and often gives us more than a little extra whenever we need support or optimizations.”

    - Dr. Aaron Thompson, Pediatric Chief Medical Information Officer at LCMC New Orleans.

    Following deployment to all clinicians and residents, LCMC Health analyzed usage data from its top 50 Nabla users, revealing measurable improvements across efficiency, documentation burden, and clinical productivity.

    Reducing Time Spent in the System

    This decrease reflects a meaningful shift in how clinicians interact with technology, spending less time navigating systems and more time focused on patient care. Across a full clinical schedule, even modest reductions in system time can translate into significant gains in efficiency.

    9%

    of clinicians saw a reduction in average time spent in the EHR system.

    19%
    less time spent on notes per day.

    Decreasing Documentation Burden

    By streamlining documentation, clinicians are able to complete notes more efficiently and with less cognitive load. This allows more attention to remain on the patient during visits, rather than on the documentation process itself.

    Cutting After-Hours Work (“Pajama Time”)

    Reducing “pajama time” is one of the most meaningful drivers of clinician satisfaction. Enabling documentation to be completed during the workday helps restore time outside of clinical hours, an important factor in reducing burnout and improving retention.

    2.4%

    more average visits per day for clinicians.

    Supporting Increased Clinical Volume

    This increase, paired with reduced documentation burden, highlights a critical outcome: efficiency gains that support both access to care and clinician experience.

    A Strategic Investment in Clinician Experience

    For LCMC Health, these results go beyond operational metrics.

    In an increasingly competitive landscape, the ability to offer clinicians tools that meaningfully reduce administrative burden has become a key differentiator. Solutions like Nabla are now viewed as non-negotiable for recruiting and retaining top clinical talent. By investing in technology that aligns with real clinical workflows, and in partners committed to long-term collaboration, LCMC Health is building a more sustainable environment for clinicians while improving care for the communities they serve.
