Summary

The healthcare sector faces significant challenges due to outdated record-keeping methods, with many providers relying on technologies developed over a decade ago or no technology at all. This gap presents an opportunity for the integration of artificial intelligence systems, such as "Retrieval Augmented Generation" and generative AI systems more broadly, in a safe and responsible manner. Two case studies demonstrate how AI technology can enhance operational efficiency in healthcare by streamlining processes, reducing costs, and enabling providers to devote more resources to direct patient care. The first use case showcases the potential for AI systems to revolutionize patient admissions across various healthcare settings, while the second use case highlights the importance of integrating modern tech solutions into billing operations. Key technologies such as AWS Textract, Credal, and Retool are utilized to build powerful and secure applications for healthcare in a short period of time, enabling rapid development and deployment of secure, compliant, and efficient healthcare applications that meet the dynamic needs of the industry.
