Apollo is trying out new AI tools. These tools look at patients’ electronic medical records to suggest what kind of diagnoses, tests, and treatments to do. They also write down doctors’ notes and help make the best work schedule for nurses. The hospital wants to use money they make from adding more beds to use more AI without making costs go up a lot.
AI tools make routine tasks easier and help in making smart clinical decisions.
Other big hospitals in India like Fortis and Medanta are also putting money into AI, even though there are some problems. These problems include high costs, data being different everywhere, and not many digital records. Deloitte, a big company, says these problems make it hard to use the new technology quickly in healthcare. Experts say smart spending is very important.
