Cure is Better than Care: Apollo Hospitals’ AI Strategies

Re-iteration of the importance of AI in healthcare by Apollo Hospitals

Apollo Hospitals confidently asserts that AI in healthcare is more of a need than a luxury.

AI solutions and AI-powered machines are the crucial pieces of hospital infrastructure today. Reportedly, around 90% of hospitals, globally, have artificial intelligence strategies in place. 75% of healthcare executives believe in AI initiatives. Such a surge in AI adoption and integration in healthcare is justified and amplified by the COVID-19 outbreak.

Sean Lane, the CEO of Olive has noted that it is incredibly promising to witness the growth of AI adoption in healthcare.

AI Advancements is the Only Constant in Apollo Hospitals

Amongst the most robust AI hospital infrastructures today, Apollo Hospitals occupies a place in the list as well. Apollo healthcare tops and shines bright in treating complicated diseases and proper patient care. The hospital group commenced AI integrations and adoptions before the pandemic outbreak. Precisely, the Apollo Hospitals Group is futuristic about AI measures focusing on medical advancements.

Owing to this, Apollo Hospitals had launched Apollo Prohealth Program, a proactive Health Management Program powered by personalized Health Risk Assessment (pHRA) enabled by artificial intelligence. The program set sights on the empowerment of businesses and individuals with actionable insights to understand and eliminate health risks.

Continuing the legacy of impeccable healthcare using AI, Apollo continues to bet on AI-enabled healthcare models. An exemplary development was the Cardiovascular Disease Risk Score Application Program Interface (API), designed to detect and predict the risks of cardiovascular diseases.

Apollo made further improvements and advancements in its healthcare infrastructure when it had partnered with Medtronic in India. This endeavor was aimed at stroke management and stroke diagnoses. The AI-powered software provides automated analyses in a brief time. This development has been deemed as the best imaging practice for diagnoses of stroke. This speeds up the decision-making processes, enabling actions to be taken in real-time.

Back in 2018, Apollo had collaborated with Microsoft to explore more on AI-integration acceleration in healthcare. "AI Network for healthcare aims to democratize artificial intelligence by empowering healthcare providers with faster, intuitive, and predictable solutions and reducing the disease burden. Our unique partnership with Apollo brings together our learnings in artificial intelligence and machine learning areas and Apollo's experience and expertise in cardiology. The systems of intelligence we create can change the lives of patients and the work of medical practitioners enabling accessible healthcare to all." said Dr. Peter Lee, Corporate Vice President, AI & Research, Microsoft.

Apollo Hospitals is Setting an Example: A Predictive Insight

Apollo, interminably, experiments with diverse AI integrations and machine learning only to make significant advances in its healthcare infrastructure. Unconsciously, it also sets examples for the medical institutions, which still fall under the rubric of 'developing'.

Apollo Hospitals leads the digital revolution by vehement AI adoption and integration. Following suit, several other medical institutions are stepping towards AI integrations to ensure proper healthcare facilities for the ones who are economically disadvantaged. Given the fact that the virus has now made its way into the rural areas and towns, medical experts and health practitioners are now sharing their attention to provide and protect them from COVID-19 complications and other deadly diseases.

As mentioned earlier, the AI-enabled measures by Apollo are futuristic that signals a seamless healthcare experience even for the ones suffering from critical diseases and the underprivileged.
