Decision Support

The application, known as iStar, was created by Perelman School of Medicine researchers to give clinicians more insights into gene activities in medical images and, potentially, help them diagnose cancers that might have otherwise been undetected.

A randomized clinical vignette survey across more than a dozen states, with hospitalists, NPs and PAs taking part, evaluated systematically biased algorithms and how clinicians make decisions with image-based AI guides.

Also, FPT has closed a deal to exclusively distribute Nipro's blood glucose monitors in Vietnam.

Private hospitals in Japan adopt technology more than their public counterparts.

Leaders from Providence, Humana and VMware offered varied perspectives on their artificial intelligence journeys at the HIMSS AI in Healthcare Forum on Friday.

The two models of MedLM are built on the tech giant's medical LLM Med-PaLM 2, with one designed for complex tasks and the other for scaling across various tasks.  

Also, two hospitals under SingHealth have started adopting Lunit's AI chest X-ray solution.

At the HIMSS AI in Healthcare Forum, physician and author Dr. Harvey Castro explored the implications as artificial intelligence expands and increasingly augments clinical decision-making. Providers need to be key players in AI development, he said.

Boston Children’s, CVS, Geisinger, UC San Diego and Wellspan are among the 28 providers and payers promising their AI and machine learning models are geared to ensure healthcare outcomes that are "Fair, Appropriate, Valid, Effective and Safe."

Despite broad concern by health IT developers and owners, some deadlines have been pushed out in HTI-1, the new federal rule governing certification, AI transparency and other standards, while those for decision support algorithms have not.
