AI coming of age in Medicare: Pulse Perspective
The Rise of AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) in Medicare dates back to the early 1970s and has evolved since from simple use to more holistic healthcare provision. Modern AI is solving multiple patient needs whilst reducing costs and increasing efficiency of both practitioners and medical institutions.
The AI field in general has grown in leaps and bounds in recent months with the launch of ChatGPT and the tens of other competitor apps in the market. Available market data shows that more than 150 AI chatbot apps have been launched in Q1 of 2023 alone.
Millions of people are now using AI to do everyday simple tasks, thereby increasing adoption exponentially. Due to the rising popularity of these AI tools, the field has gained a huge traction, as more companies are looking for ways to integrate the technology in their operations. Therefore, AI has not only been localized to chatbots, but to all industries, medicare included. The recent improvements in AI technology have opened the world up to many practices that have been in operation, as well as those that could be implemented to simplify medical care. This article examines some of the practices and operations where Pulse Network has integrated AI.
Use of AI in Medicare
One of the most common uses of AI in healthcare is in designing treatment plans for patients. By analyzing data from previous patients, practitioners can have superior strategies for treating their patients and monitoring their treatment plans. The first step in order to get there is collection of patients data and storage in a secure platform. Pulse network uses the blockchain technology together with AI to ensure that collected data is authentic, secure and cannot be falsified.
Pulse provides AI-aided diagnostic information that combines patients’ genetic information with their medical history and recent medical research and data, enhancing accuracy of diagnosis. This service will enable more precise and time sensitive diagnosis, which will greatly contribute to the progress of medical care.
How Pulse Is Integrating AI In Its Service Provision
AI focuses on making normal practices easier and straightforward. Through the integration of this technology, users are able to reap huge benefits, saving time and offering value. At Pulse Network we have Pulse Records for Doctors and Dentists created to help these healthcare practitioners streamline the process of creating medical records and optimizing time spent with patients during evaluation. This application provides users access to our constantly updated medical and pharmaceutical knowledge base, meaning that healthcare practitioners can diagnose diseases faster while offering patients better medication.
Our platform will provide real-time pharmaceutical data, alleviating the burden on healthcare professionals. This service simplifies medical practice by highlighting both effective treatment options as well as potential risks of adverse health outcomes.
A challenge experienced by patients is scheduling and following up on medical check-ups and screening, especially because of busy work and family schedules. Consequently, our personal app, Pulse Pocket, will prompt patients in relation to routine health check-ups and preventative health examinations. Through the app, patients can book their appointments and receive results punctually. Additionally, the app will alert patients in the event that a meaningful risk of a possible underlying health condition has been identified from their medical records or check-up. It therefore, becomes easy to seek professional care and prevent the spread of these diseases early.
It is not enough to have an AI-driven diagnostics system, comprehensive medical records and an extensive medical database if they cannot be accessed by as many people as possible. Therefore, we will facilitate efficient remote healthcare services to patients without necessarily having a physical appointment. This will be possible through telemedicine; a service made more efficient by AI technology. Additionally, we will provide native language support to eliminate language barriers such that more medical practitioners and patients can access medical data and care.
Conclusion
Since the 1970s, AI in medicare has seen a lot of growth, with more technology helping in diagnosis as well as aftercare. This is not to claim that we have reached the summit of AI technology, as more advancement is on the way. AI technology can help in surgeries, diagnosing diseases, creating medical plans and many other services. Pulse Network’s use of AI will provide benefits to both medical practitioners and patients, who have access to stored medical data and a diagnosis system. Through our Pulse Pocket and Pulse Records apps, users from across the globe can monitor their health and access the latest data from the comfort of their homes.
