Decision Support

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.

The tech giant revealed it created an LLM optimized for diagnostic reasoning with the ability to generate a differential diagnosis or assist clinicians in coming to a diagnosis.  

The imaging giant is releasing new dynamic digital radiography and ultrasound point-of-care capabilities and is also presenting its latest research enhancing DDR with artificial intelligence.

Dr. Eve Cunningham, an expert in applied technologies and care transformation, previews her panel at the HIMSS AI in Healthcare Forum next month, and talks effective approaches to scaling AI systems for optimal value.

Also, major military hospitals in Uzbekistan have started adopting AI medical image screening solutions from VUNO.
