How Guardoc transforms medical document processing with Amazon Nova models

Guardoc Health helps skilled nursing facilities and assisted living centers extract, classify, and act on complex clinical documents faster and more accurately than manual review. The pipeline uses Amazon Bedrock with Amazon Nova models, Amazon Textract, Amazon Titan Text Embeddings V2, and Amazon DynamoDB to process handwritten, checkbox-heavy, and mixed-format medical documents. The solution combines RAG, patient-scoped retrieval, cost-tiering between Nova 2 Lite and Nova Pro, and hybrid OCR plus multimodal reasoning for compliance-sensitive long-term care workflows.

  • Clinical documentation is fragmented, inconsistent, error-prone, and difficult to process at scale.
  • Documents include handwriting, tables, checkboxes, stamps, and mixed formats that are hard to extract accurately.
  • The workflow must support traceability, compliance, and financial stakes in long-term care.
  • Built a multi-stage pipeline on Amazon Bedrock.
  • Used Amazon Textract for OCR and structured extraction.
  • Used Amazon Titan Text Embeddings V2 and patient-scoped retrieval for RAG.
  • Used Amazon Nova 2 Lite for coarse filtering and Amazon Nova Pro for multimodal PDF reasoning.
  • Paired Textract with Nova Pro for hybrid medication extraction and complex layouts.
  • Reported 46% average reduction in documentation errors.
  • Reported 70% fewer audit fines.
  • Reported over $400K annual ROI for a single facility.
  • Improved visibility into facility-level risk patterns.
  • In a two-facility quarterly deployment, identified 847 documentation corrections and 86 PDPM-impact issues.
Architecture

Guardoc Health built a multi-stage clinical document processing pipeline on Amazon Bedrock using Amazon Nova models, Amazon Textract, Amazon Titan Text Embeddings V2, and Amazon DynamoDB. The design uses RAG with patient-scoped retrieval, cost-tiering with Amazon Nova 2 Lite for coarse filtering, and Amazon Nova Pro for multimodal reasoning over PDFs, handwriting, checkboxes, forms, and mixed-format medication documents.
