While 83% of healthcare executives are piloting generative AI, fewer than 10% have the infrastructure necessary for enterprisewide deployment, Accenture found.
Still, leaders recognize the technology’s potential benefits, according to the IT consulting firm’s March report. Here is what healthcare C-suite executives consider the biggest opportunities for generative AI at their organizations:
1. Increase employee efficiency: 83%
2. Drive revenue growth: 82%
3. Increase market share: 18%
4. Improve medical decision-making: 17%
5. Encourage innovation: 13%
6. Implement social-determinants-of-health programs: 7%
7. Empower patients: 6%
Accenture surveyed 300 C-suite leaders — including CEOs, CFOs and CIOs — at healthcare providers with at least $1 billion in revenues.
At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
