Everywhere you look today, artificial intelligence (AI) is making an appearance and offering to do something you already do smarter, faster or just a little more efficiently. Or it’s allowing new, exciting ways to look at old problems. Across health care, it’s opening up new opportunities to weigh risks and improve diagnoses, personalize medicine and develop less-invasive medical procedures.
Indeed, AI is popping up almost everywhere in the healthcare arena, from evaluating patient propensities for genetic mutations to lifespan prognosis. There is no area of specialty research that is not investigating the potential for AI to improve medicine.
The laggard? Value-based care. Ironically, as we improve the ability to do more with advanced medicine through AI, the organizations charged with improving outcomes, cost, and health equity are left behind and dependent on lesser tools.
