Arsenal Health’s flagship service helps providers manage their daily appointment volume by using machine learning to predict no-shows and cancellations.

“First, the scheduling service has proven it can be highly impactful to providers, helping ensure that days run smoother, more patients get seen and more revenue flows in. Second is its potential as an additional on-ramp to the machine learning, predictive analytics and artificial intelligence space in healthcare. The prospect of building on Arsenal Health’s technology and combining it with our own valuable data to positively impact care and expand the power of our network is extremely compelling,” said Doran Robinson, vice president of athenaCoordinator.
