S8E03 - Applied AI to Reduce Error: Cognitive Support & Virtual Scribes featuring Dr. Gretchen Purcell Jackson & Emilio Galan

Have you ever wondered how many positive effects Applied AI has had on healthcare? Dr. Jackson walks us through the common myths and fears regarding AI and health. This means evaluating the capacity to understand, reason, and interact in human-like ways and improve their performance over time. Augmented intelligence is a combination of human and machine strengths. There are AI tools for everyone in the industry - providers, clinicians, and patients - that can improve their experience. She also reflects how the pandemic has impacted the evolution of these technologies.  Emilio Galan, Co-Founder & President, Robin Healthcare, shares with us what natural language processing is and how it impacts the industry. He shares how artificial intelligence in these technologies really is, the problems they try to solve, and how they perform in the real world. Automatic speech recognition and computer vision are examples Emilio uses to go through these three topics. The tools today are assistive, and they will never replace human beings totally. The main mantra with AI is “if it’s not documented, it didn’t happen”; this idea is important when we track the quality of the physician and the patient’s progress.  Join this conversation and learn about the technological revolution that will come to us soon!

The Digital Orthopaedics Conference San Francisco (DOCSF) was created to bridge the worlds of digital health and clinical orthopaedics and thereby catalyze the adoption of technology in musculoskeletal care. This podcast series features key speakers and highlights from the live event. Why orthopaedics? We believe that embedding digital technologies in a narrow integrated vertical is more likely to affect change than targeting one-fifth of the U.S. economy. We also believe that if a conference is to move the ball forward, it needs to target leaders who are positioned to drive change. These leaders want a conference that is practical, identifies solutions to real problems, and that provides perspective from people outside their normal circle. To this end, we invite Health Care, Industry, Finance, Entrepreneurs and Payers to participate. The DOCSF program design uses many educational formats including ‘case studies’ to illustrate success and a broad panel of experts to ask tough questions. And because change does not happen in a vacuum, we include leadership, policy and design segments in the program. Find out more, and register for our next conference, by visiting docsf.health.
