How A.I. is helping doctors triage patients in urgent care
Fortune July 28, 2020
Healthcare experts are hopeful that artificial intelligence could help doctors figure out which patients need urgent care.
At Stanford, physicians at the university’s healthcare facilities will debut, in a month or so, an experimental machine learning-powered triage system. Unlike the machine learning-powered chatbot used by healthcare giant Providence Health & Services that helps patients schedule appointments, Stanford’s software is intended to be used by internal staff to deal with sudden influxes of patients, which can overburden physicians.
