ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: Healthcare’s New Nervous System

August 6, 2018

According to Accenture analysis, when combined, key clinical health AI applications can potentially create $150 billion in annual savings for the United States healthcare economy by 2026.

At hyper-speed, AI is re-wiring our modern conception of healthcare delivery. AI in health represents a collection of multiple technologies enabling machines to sense, comprehend, act and learn1, so they can perform administrative and clinical healthcare functions.
