How AI healthcare co-pilots will assist doctors worldwide
AI assistants or “co-pilots” will become an essential tool for medical professionals, letting them attend to more patients.
Nowadays, many companies are developing this technology, such as MIT Alumni-founded Ambience Healthcare.
Ambience CEO Mike Ng developed the tool to help doctors focus on helping the ill.
It is no secret that searching health records, writing documentation, and performing other mundane tasks takes time – sometimes, more time than treating patients.

The company aims to change that with its AI healthcare platform that automates these activities before, during, and after patient visits.
The AI co-pilot can handle pre-charting and real-time AI scribing. It can likewise aid in navigating thousands of rules for selecting insurance billing codes.
The Ambience platform can also send after-visit summaries to patients and their families in different languages. As a result, it can update everyone regarding a person’s condition automatically.
“That’s one of the features that physicians love most, “ co-founder Nikhil Buduma told MIT News.
“We had to go back and rewrite all of our algorithms to be coding-aware. There are literally tens of thousands of coding rules that change every year and differ by specialty and contract type.”

The Philippines may also gain such transformative benefits as Senti AI and other local firms share similar services nationwide.
