“As we proceed, we do it very cautiously,” Mr. Carmody told Technical.ly. “We make sure that our health plan members and our patients’ data, their privacy and their data, is secure. And we test and validate any way we will use these types of technologies as we move forward. And that’s how we’ve always done things at UPMC.”
