Commenting on the appointment, Shiva Shankar, Chairman,  EGS Group of Companies, said, “Dr. Ghuge’s leadership combines rare depth — a clinician’s understanding of real-world challenges and a visionary’s ability to reimagine how healthcare can work better. His appointment as Chief Medical Officer reinforces our belief that the most impactful healthcare technology is that which is built hand in hand with the people who deliver care.”

Dr. Ghuge’s leadership philosophy remains centered on patient safety, efficiency, and empowerment through intelligent systems. Under his guidance, EGS Health and Protocol Pilot aim to continue transforming the intersection of medicine and technology — making healthcare smarter, simpler, and more human.

EGS Health has announced the official launch of Protocol Pilot, an AI-powered clinical guideline engine that simplifies hospital workflows and empowers clinicians to make faster, smarter, and more consistent decisions. The launch marks a major milestone in EGS Health’s ongoing mission to combine technology and clinical insight to solve some of the most complex operational challenges in modern healthcare.

In hospitals today, clinicians are under immense pressure to keep up with rapidly changing medical guidelines, manage growing amounts of data, and deliver precise care under tight timelines. Despite the abundance of information, the lack of real-time access and workflow integration often leads to delays, inconsistencies, and burnout. Protocol Pilot was designed to directly address these issues, transforming static clinical guidelines into real-time, context-aware recommendations that integrate seamlessly into a clinician’s workflow.

Built through months of collaboration between physicians, technologists, and AI engineers, Protocol Pilot continuously ingests hospital-based protocols and keeps them up to date. Its intelligent engine then analyzes each clinical situation and surfaces evidence-based recommendations tailored to the user’s role and patient context. The system integrates effortlessly with existing EMR platforms or functions as a standalone solution, giving hospitals flexibility while ensuring instant access to accurate guidance when it’s needed most.

Speaking about the launch, Shiva Shankar, Chairman of the EGS Group of Companies, said, “Protocol Pilot represents a defining step forward in how we think about clinical decision support. Our goal was never just to digitize information, but to make it intelligent, accessible, and truly useful for clinicians at the point of care. This product reflects months of collaboration between our technologists, physicians, and hospital partners,  all driven by one purpose: to make healthcare delivery simpler, faster, and more human.”

Protocol Pilot’s core capabilities include AI-powered clinical decision support, real-time protocol updates, seamless EMR integration, and evidence-based recommendations. Its technical framework is built on HIPAA-compliant infrastructure, ensuring data privacy and security at every level. With 99.9% uptime, multi-platform compatibility, and advanced encryption, the platform is designed to meet the highest standards of reliability and compliance.

Early pilots across the United States have already shown promising results. Clinicians that have tested Protocol Pilot have reported up to 30 percent faster clinical decision-making, 20 percent reduced variability in care, and improved adherence to clinical standards. By reducing cognitive load and providing instant clarity, the system enables clinicians to focus more on what truly matters, delivering high-quality, patient-centred care.

As EGS Health continues to expand its portfolio of intelligent healthcare solutions, the launch of Protocol Pilot stands as a testament to the company’s vision of transforming the way hospitals operate. By combining clinical insight, AI technology, and practical design, EGS Health is paving the way for smarter, more connected healthcare systems across the world.

Protocol Pilot is now live in the United States and available for deployment in partner hospitals nationwide.

EGS Health has announced a major enhancement to its AI-powered clinical guideline engine, Protocol Pilot, with the introduction of voice-enabled interaction. Clinicians can now simply speak their queries and receive instant, evidence-based recommendations in clear, concise language — reducing the time spent manually typing or searching for hospital protocols.

This new voice integration marks a significant step toward making clinical decision support more intuitive, efficient, and accessible. Designed in response to feedback from hospital users, the feature enables care teams to access up-to-date medical guidelines, infection control policies, and treatment workflows using natural voice commands, even in high-pressure environments where every second counts.

The voice capability leverages advanced natural language processing (NLP) and context-aware AI algorithms, allowing clinicians to ask complex, case-specific questions — such as “What’s the sepsis protocol for ICU patients?” or “When do I isolate for C. diff?” — and receive precise, hospital-specific answers instantly.

According to EGS Health, the addition of voice interaction significantly enhances usability, reducing cognitive load and improving decision speed by eliminating the need for manual data retrieval. Built within Protocol Pilot’s secure, HIPAA-compliant framework, the feature ensures privacy and compliance while maintaining a seamless experience across desktop, mobile, and integrated EMR systems.

Commenting on the update, Shiva Shankar, Chairman of the EGS Group of Companies, said, “This upgrade reflects our ongoing commitment to human-centred innovation. By enabling voice-based interaction, we’re not just improving convenience; we’re allowing clinicians to focus more on patients and less on screens. It’s about putting clarity and speed back into the heart of care delivery.”

The new voice integration feature is now available across select partner hospitals in the United States, with a full rollout planned in the coming months.

EGS Health has announced a new breakthrough in the functionality of its AI-powered platform, Protocol Pilot, which now extends beyond clinical decision support to optimize hospital operations and resource management. The enhanced system is capable of analyzing and structuring thousands of operational documents, including on-call directories, lab schedules, and departmental availability within minutes.

This update enables hospitals to make faster, data-driven decisions about patient admissions, resource allocation, and staff coordination. For example, the system can process information such as which doctors or labs are on call, which instruments are available for emergency use, and even departmental availability updates like ECHO technicians not being available on specific days. With this intelligence, hospitals can plan admissions and clinical workflows more efficiently, avoiding unnecessary delays or miscommunication.

The AI-powered engine can churn through vast repositories of unstructured data — from phone directories and staff rosters to operational guidelines and automatically organize them into structured, searchable insights. Depending on the size of the hospital or clinic, Protocol Pilot can process hundreds to thousands of documents within minutes, ensuring that decision-makers always have the most accurate and current information available.

According to EGS Health, this development represents a major leap in the platform’s evolution from a clinical guideline engine to a comprehensive hospital intelligence system. By combining clinical clarity with operational visibility, Protocol Pilot is empowering healthcare organizations to function with greater precision and predictability.

Commenting on the update, Shiva Shankar, Chairman of the EGS Group of Companies, said, “Healthcare efficiency isn’t just about clinical accuracy; it’s about operational readiness. With this capability, we’re giving hospitals a real-time command centre that helps them understand their own systems better, anticipate challenges, and respond proactively.”

This feature leverages advanced natural language processing (NLP), document ingestion automation, and AI indexing to turn disparate hospital files into actionable intelligence. It works across multiple document types and integrates seamlessly with hospital information systems, enabling unified access for clinicians, administrators, and operations teams.

The new update reinforces EGS Health’s commitment to continuous innovation, ensuring that Protocol Pilot not only supports clinicians at the point of care but also strengthens hospital operations from the inside out.
