Improving Patient Compass

Healthcare is in the midst of a digital transformation taking advantage of AI technology, although integration has been slow due to concerns about privacy, issues with workflows, and keeping patients engaged. There’s a need for well-designed AI that automates tasks and keeps patients engaged.
Health Compass is an AI tool that helps healthcare by taking care of administrative tasks, helping with writing up of medical notes, supporting doctors in making decisions and guiding patients through their treatments, all using advanced technology. Patient Compass is a module of this tool, developed by our Partner ORX.
Working with ORX, our research goal is to develop improvements in the Patient Compass module, by researching and testing current AI tools and technologies. We will focus on efficiency and reliability, while ensuring safe, compliant and ethical use. We will validate AI accuracy with standard datasets and monitor patient engagement using digital health analytics. We will track success with patient surveys, and studies on clinic efficiency.
Improvements to ORX’s Patient Compass module and the Health Compass platform will empower healthcare providers and enhance patient experiences across North America.
