While healthcare organizations have been under tremendous financial stress during the COVID-19 pandemic, a recent United healthcare survey shows that 56% of healthcare organizations reported accelerating their artificial intelligence (AI) plans. Since the pandemic struck, investment in AI platforms has skyrocketed. In this webinar, we will hear what is driving the current AI investments including cost savings, improved provider, and patient experience, reducing staff burnout and administrative burden.

Participants will:

• Learn how a cutting-edge platform uses AI and RPA to quickly eliminate repetitive operational tasks at scale by using existing administrative processes and applications (i.e. EHR, web-based apps)
• Hear experts discuss how healthcare organizations are investing in AI and automation technologies to cut costs, reduce staff burn-out, create resilience, and enhance the employee and patient experience
