Suboptimal handoffs are associated with increased risk of adverse events. In this study, a large language model (LLM) was designed and used to draft notes for handoff from the emergency department to inpatient services. Compared to physician-written notes, LLM-generated notes included higher detail but slightly lower usefulness and patient safety scores. None of the LLM-generated handoff notes were considered a critical patient safety risk.
