Supercharging care management, a central concern in healthcare requires understanding the powerful technological tools available to make a difference. Artificial Intelligence (AI) stands poised to redefine patient care coordination. The discussion around such technological leaps is not just timely but crucial, considering the ever-rising healthcare costs and the need for improved patient outcomes. This context sets the stage for a pertinent conversation about how companies like Laguna Health deploy advanced AI tools, like Natural Language Processing (NLP), to revolutionize the industry.

  • Laguna Health’s contribution to diminishing hospital readmissions and reducing healthcare costs
  • The incorporation of social determinants into care plans, aiming to elevate patient care standards
