The two tech giants said Oct. 21 they are partnering to support AI startups, with an initial focus on healthcare and life sciences.
Among their protégés is Artisight, a healthcare AI company deployed by Northwestern and over 200 other hospitals that has more than 2,000 cameras and microphones set up to power smart hospital technology.
The startup automates patient check-ins at voice-enabled kiosks and provides computer vision technology to alert nurses when a patient is at risk of a fall.
Additionally, Northwestern Medicine expanded the DAX Copilot generative AI clinical documentation tool from Microsoft’s Nuance across its 11-hospital system in August, with a goal of having about 1,500 physicians use it.
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.
