17. Remember to keep in mind...
Shadow Health virtual patients understand a vast number of questions, over 250,000, and is the best conversation engine on the market. To ensure success when interviewing these patients:
You have to be very specific with questions
Sometimes you will need to rephrase your question to get the answer you need
Digital patients don’t have a working memory. Avoid unclear pronouns, as these can confuse digital patients.
