Several hospital and health system leaders joined the LA Bioscience Ecosystem Summit Twenty23 on May 25 to discuss how AI will play a role in patient care, with many organizations stating that they are already seeing promising new developments with the technology, according to a May 25 press release from UCLA Health.
Here are four AI-based projects hospitals and health systems are working on:
- Los Angeles-based UCLA Health is using AI to connect patients with a chatbot and to ease clinicians’ documentation burden within the EHR.
- Los Angeles-based Cedars-Sinai is building AI tools that can integrate data from imaging files, spreadsheets and written documents.
- Orange, Calif.-based UCI Health is using AI to reduce the amount of time clinicians are spending in front of screens by using it to create automated transcripts of patient encounters.
- Los Angeles-based MLK Community Healthcare is using AI to alert staff to irregularities in patients’ clinical care.
