What is the difference between UptoDate & OpenEvidence?
Answer
If you are considering using OpenEvidence over UptoDate, please note the following points:
- OpenEvidence is a research-oriented tool, not point-of-care
- OpenEvidence is aggregated results from journals, medical reference books, images, and videos.
- OpenEvidence users must sift through results from the journals/books to find answers. It’s ideal for medical research purposes. Not actionable for providers
- OpenEvidence Is a third-party resource that Clinical Key uses for AI on the Journals
- OpenEvidence also requires an NPI number for unlimited use so students and others without can only ask a limited number of questions(this may change with use of Clinical Key)
