Artificial Intelligence

 The report, released today at HIMSS23, shows investments in AI over the next three years, with the biggest increase in critical decision support.

 "There's tremendous potential for AI to be applied to behavioral health as in other areas of healthcare," says Taft Parsons III of CVS Health.

During a discussion at HIMSS23, panelists discussed the promise of AI while expressing concerns about its potentially unchecked evolution.

With artificial intelligence evolving at rapid speed, Dr. Sonya Makhni, medical director of Mayo Clinic Platform Solutions, discusses promising use cases, deployment challenges, algorithmic integrity, patient safety and more.

Integrating the cloud-based models into daily workflows will "increase productivity for many of our providers," says one CIO, "allowing them to focus on the clinical duties that truly require their attention."

At the HIMSS23 opening keynote discussion, artificial intelligence innovators debated about how to weigh the "tremendous opportunities" for healthcare algorithms with the "risks – some of which we may not yet know about."

From the impediments of artificial intelligence and its successes to its potential to save healthcare millions, "Where are we going to take it, and how do we drive value?" asked Tom Lawry at HIMSS23.

So says David Lareau, CEO of Medicomp Systems, a HIMSS23 exhibitor, who dives into these trends, and talks about actionable data at the point of care.

Albert Marinez, chief analytics officer at Intermountain Health and a HIMSS23 attendee, talks AI, analytics and more.

The potential is enormous, but like any other technology, we need to identify how to leverage it for the greatest value – and how to organize our thoughts around artificial intelligence, says  Erik Barnett of Avanade.
