A STRATEGIC SOLUTION FROM INNOVATIVE
Leveraging AI: A “Look Before You Leap” Approach
Given the potential for enhanced efficiencies and cost reductions, healthcare facilities are keen to launch AI. But where to begin?
Experts agree that AI will ultimately have a positive impact on healthcare. It’s ability to identify patterns in large amounts of data is already proving useful in detecting diseases, developing care plans, and predicting patient outcomes. But AI also raises concerns around data security, privacy, and other ethical considerations.
Thus, we propose step one: make sure your organization is AI “ready” before you launch.
