Tempus announced a major expansion of Tempus One, its generative clinical assistant, with direct integration into electronic health record systems. Designed to support oncology and broader specialties, the upgraded tool embeds Artificial Intelligence at multiple points in the care process to help physicians make treatment decisions and cut administrative workload. The company says its integrated architecture captures real-time clinical, molecular, and imaging data from millions of patients and distills it into actionable insights for clinicians and care teams, building on Tempus’ extensive EHR integrations across the United States.
A core addition is the integration of ASCO clinical practice guidelines. By bringing evidence-based treatment and care recommendations directly into Tempus One, oncologists can quickly reference up-to-date guidance inside their workflow. Tempus positions this capability as a way to support more personalized patient care, ensuring that physicians can align decisions with the latest consensus and research without leaving the patient context.
The release also introduces clinical workflow assistance spanning the full appointment lifecycle. Before visits, Tempus One compiles patient history, treatment journey, and recent biomarker status to accelerate preparation. During appointments, it can transcribe conversations, take intelligent notes, and surface key details so clinicians can focus on patient interaction. After visits, the assistant helps with documentation, treatment planning informed by current guidelines and research, preparation of prior authorizations, and clinical trial matching, aiming to reduce routine overhead and speed time to care.
Tempus is further opening its Agent Builder generative tool to a select group of partner providers after using it internally to create more than 1,000 Artificial Intelligence agents. These customizable agents are designed to streamline tasks such as generating patient overviews for pre-charting or converting patient conversations into notes for the EHR. Built in collaboration with Tempus teams and referencing each institution’s standard operating procedures and data repositories, the agents can be embedded into existing workflows through Tempus One. Chief Operating Officer Ryan Fukushima framed the update as a shift from clinicians spending hours searching and documenting to receiving real-time, actionable insights that connect fragmented systems.
