Why:		AI innovation is empowering health systems to meet the needs of vulnerable populations by directing clinicians’ attention in real time to the right patients between visits. The true value for healthcare AI lies in predictive analytics and Northwell Health has seen the outcomes it can lead to. Based on data from the health system’s automated pregnancy program, which includes a chatbot powered by Amwell, its clinicians found that 16% of what were thought to be routine pregnancies were medium-high risk. This enabled providers to identify patients that needed early interventions to save lives, reduce complications and lower downstream medical costs.
