AI, in particular, will be a primary driver of this exponential growth in clinical productivity, which can lead to improved patient outcomes and, eventually, the automation of care delivery activities.
While a handful of technology-enabled interventions have already shown success in enhancing productivity, McKinsey identified three key categories of automated tools that will likely increase efficiency and patient outcomes even further.
- Cognitive engagement platforms designed to improve wellness among all patient segments and, specifically, increase adherence among patients with chronic or high-acuity conditions.
- Automated analytics tools that enhance diagnosis by utilizing data aggregated across the population.
- AI-based assistance in patient diagnosis and routine administrative duties to enhance physician productivity.
