HIMSSCast: How genAI can reinvent the work of clinicians
Many health IT leaders at hospitals and health systems and at technology companies say generative artificial intelligence – the kind most commonly associated with the mega-popular ChatGPT – is a game-changer for healthcare provider organizations. It can do things unlike any technology that has preceded it.
It can serve administrative and clinical purposes. To date, most applications of genAI in healthcare have been on the administrative side, with CIOs, CMOs, CNOs and other leaders being cautious when sticking their toes into clinical waters.
But one way or the other, genAI can save clinicians time – and plenty of it. Which can significantly change the way they work, for the better, says Accenture Health Strategy Lead Brian P. Kalis.
Our HIMSSCast this week focuses on how genAI and other technologies can reinvent the way clinicians work. Our guest, Kalis, from the consulting giant Accenture, is an expert in the field.
