The healthcare space collects more data about its consumers than any other industry. Additionally, healthcare has the most human error, with the second leading cause of death occurring at the hands of medical professionals. AI, automation, and other machine learning tools can rectify this issue and streamline the patient experience. How is the healthcare industry leveraging these technologies?

From operating scanning technology and analyzing patient charts to disseminating data for advertising campaigns, AI is transforming the healthcare industry. With copious data in various locations, these tools can gather, organize, manage, and store it to provide personalized patient care. However, the government has enacted strict regulations, with IP addresses and other forms of PII (personally identifiable information) being classified as PHI (protected health information). While healthcare marketers are largely restricted from collecting information for retargeting and remarketing, digital healthcare expert Tom Hileman says they can utilize this data to offer customized educational resources. By assessing and mitigating bias in machine learning, you can prioritize patient care based on needs and reduce human error.
