LA JOLLA, CA / ACCESSWIRE / February 2, 2024 / Munjal Shah, the CEO of Hippocratic AI, a startup building a large language model for non-diagnostic health care applications, will speak on the transformative potential of generative artificial intelligence in health care at the 3rd Annual West Coast Digital Healthcare Innovation Summit, held in La Jolla, California, on Feb. 6-7.
Since co-founding Hippocratic AI in 2022, Shah has been at the forefront of developing a safety-focused LLM for applications such as patient education, chronic care management, and administrative assistance. His company aims to revolutionize health care by addressing the critical shortage of sector professionals through "super-staffing," using AI to expand access to quality care.
The DHIS summit is a gathering of thought leaders and innovators in the field of digital health care, from medical professionals to entrepreneurs. It will provide an ideal platform for Shah to discuss the potential and challenges of integrating AI into health care services. His talk is expected to cover a range of topics, including the ethical considerations of AI in health care, the importance of safety and reliability in AI-driven medical applications, and how AI can bridge gaps in equity and access.
In addition to covering the role and impact of generative AI in health care, the broader agenda at the summit will cover topics such as the pursuit of commercial contracts with large health care enterprises, financing trends in digital health, the influence of the regulatory landscape on digital health in an election year, and the reinvention of clinical trials through digital health technologies. Other areas of focus include the potential transformation of value-based care, the intersection of healthtech and fintech to enhance patient affordability and the concept of incentivizing patients for healthy behaviors. The summit will culminate with the presentation of the 2024 Digital Healthcare Innovator Award.
