Cedars-Sinai Connect offers virtual urgent care around the clock and same-day primary care appointments. The health system developed the platform as a joint venture with digital health company K Health, which uses AI for clinical intake and data entry to speed up appointments.
“Cedars-Sinai Connect is a natural extension of the high-quality care Cedars-Sinai already provides to patients in person,” said Jill Martin, executive vice president of Cedars-Sinai Medical Network, in an Oct. 10 news release. “What could be more convenient than getting the care you need when you need it — in the palm of your hand — in your home or office?”
When patients log into Cedars-Sinai Connect, an AI chatbot collects health details and symptoms and then generates a summary for the virtual clinicians. The app, which is integrated with Cedars-Sinai’s EHR, is available for California patients and accepts any insurance that the health system takes.
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.
