Emerging Use Cases of Automation in Healthcare
Summary
To do this, Cogitativo leverages machine learning to target veterans with chronic conditions, such as diabetes, who may have had trouble getting consistent care in 2020 and 2021. Automation allows the company to sort patients based on the “probability of an acute clinical event or disease progression within the next 12 months,” according to Cogitativo CEO Gary Velasquez Beyond Cogitativo’s efforts, automation in healthcare allows companies throughout the industry to detect and respond to patient trends. For example, HealthTech Magazine writer Brian Eastwood notes that many organizations utilize deep-learning AI to understand which patients are most likely to cancel a doctor’s appointment. Often, physicians must spend too much time entering information into an electronic health record (EHR) during consultations instead of taking those critical minutes to observe and speak directly to the patient. Dr. Chang believes that, going forward, automated systems will be able to record this data into the EHR, allowing physicians to focus all their attention on the patient.
