Can AI Help Patients Take Control of Their Care?

#artificialintelligence

Artificial intelligence is making waves in healthcare. More than 40 percent of healthcare executives consider it the technology that will have the greatest impact on their organizations within the next three years, Accenture reports. Some health systems are already using it to address a growing number of issues, from staff efficiencies to predicting patient outcomes that transform the delivery of care. Now, recipients of care are starting to leverage the functionality of AI as well. Consider Froedtert Health and the Medical College of Wisconsin Health Network, which is using Buoy -- an interactive digital tool that allows users to enter their symptoms and receive a personalized analysis and recommendations for care options in real time.
