Abstract: 

Effective clinical care planning requires clinician users to understand patient health status and needs to deliver appropriate support. The proliferation of healthcare data including massive volumes of clinical free text documents, creates a significant challenge for users, but a major opportunity for advanced clinical analytics. Novel Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven solutions can help optimize care planning, reducing inefficiency and increasing focus on the most salient information, leading to better clinical decision making and improved patient outcomes. This talk will focus on various AI-based use cases developed as part of our advanced care planning initiatives.
