It’s hard to read anything online without running into all of the advancements that are being made in artificial intelligence (AI). That said, the transformative power of AI within the healthcare industry can’t be overstated—and it shouldn’t be underestimated either. Over the last decade or so, the role of AI in healthcare has grown considerably, powering software used by healthcare organizations, as well as wearable tech and sensors used by patients. In the last few years, we have seen the technology advance by orders of magnitude we couldn’t have reasonably expected, especially when it comes to patient-centric healthcare. One of the biggest impacts of AI in healthcare is improved access to care for many people, such as those who live in rural or underserved areas without many medical professionals or specialists in close proximity. It is fairly clear that virtual healthcare services can provide value to patients who otherwise could not physically attend appointments.
