Health systems across the U.S. are accelerating partnerships with tech companies to embed AI into clinical care, operations and administrative workflows.
In June, Rochester, Minn.-based Mayo Clinic partnered with hellocare.ai, an AI-assisted virtual care platform, to advance ambient clinical intelligence. The collaboration aims to support early detection, reduce clinician workload and enhance proactive inpatient care.
Chicago-based Northwestern Medicine also entered a multi-year collaboration with PathAI to transform pathology diagnostics through AI. The effort includes joint research, clinical innovation programs and the co-development of machine learning-powered diagnostic algorithms.
In May, Oracle Health, Cleveland Clinic and G42 — a technology firm based in the United Arab Emirates — announced a partnership to build an AI-driven platform designed to transform healthcare delivery in both the U.S. and UAE.
The platform will leverage national-scale data analytics, intelligent clinical applications and precision medicine tools to improve patient care and support proactive public health strategies, the organizations said in a May 16 announcement.
These recent partnerships reflect a growing push among health systems and tech companies to ensure AI tools are grounded in clinical realities while benefiting from startups technical expertise.
