AI-Driven Automation in Healthcare: Business Operations, Diagnostics, and EHR Workflows
AI is moving from experimentation to practical application across healthcare organizations, with health systems increasingly using it to automate workflows, streamline operations and tackle real-world challenges. In this panel, healthcare technology leaders will share examples of AI use cases they have actually deployed, including applications beyond the EHR and in non-clinical and operational settings. The conversation will focus on practical examples, what is working, what isn't and where health systems are finding the greatest opportunities for AI-driven automation.
