AI in health care: Capacity, capability, and a future of active health in Asia – MIT Technology Review Insights

Software and platforms powered by AI are expected to transform Asia's health-care landscape in the decade ahead, allowing health-care providers and government health-care authorities to increase capacity of service delivery, speed of diagnoses, quality of care, and overall patient health outcomes. The use of AI cannot be described as entirely nascent; indeed, it is already being widely used--particularly in developed Asia. Yet new use cases, new innovations, and new centers of AI adoption are emerging constantly, and the continuing urgency by governments and tech players to diffuse AI across health-care ecosystems will bring untold benefits to patients' lives across the region. AI is efficiently narrowing Asia's health-care gap. AI is an important and pragmatic solution for increasing the capacity and efficiency of health-care provision across the region.
