Artificial Intelligence in Health Care
Activity description
This activity consists of recorded presentations from the "30th Annual National Conference" held virtually Sept. 29–30, 2021.
The use of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and virtual medicine (e.g., telehealth) technologies has continued to grow exponentially over the past few years and has become an essential part of delivering health care services that allow for improved continuity of care, convenience, increased efficiency, and decreased costs. The ability of AI to improve health outcomes is only as good as its implementation and incorporation into clinical processes and is accompanied by legal, regulatory, and reimbursement issues that must be considered.
