Can AI Be the Cure for Burnout?

“The basic infrastructure in healthcare is still not functional from a technology perspective,” explains Mehdi Maghsoodnia, thought leader and CEO of 1Health.io. Mehdi studied artificial intelligence at Berkeley and Stanford and has been working in the world of high tech for over 20 years building the platforms that started it all. Today, Mehdi shares how artificial intelligence and advancements to the severely outdated software being used by healthcare systems can transform the industry and help keep physicians from burning out.

Healthcare is at least a decade behind nearly every other industry in terms of technological advancements. 1Health.io is working to change that by providing a platform that shows physicians all the available tests for any given condition, in addition to information about which ones are covered by insurance and which tests are popular with their peers and other physicians. Software like this allows doctors a more streamlined process for tracking vital information like test results.

Physicians today are trying to meet impossibly high levels of demand without the proper tools available to make this demand feasible. Artificial intelligence can help healthcare workers reduce their workload by taking care of administrative tasks and keeping their patients’ data organized. This streamlined process will free up time for physicians, keep things from falling through the cracks, and improve the overall care experience for patients.
