Big wins in medication management at Hackensack Meridian Health 🏥 Clinical-grade AI integrated into the New Jersey health system's Epic EHR improved workflows with a three-pronged solution that tackled data capture, cost transparency, and patient education, Chief Pharmacy Officer Will Carroll, PharmD, FACHE, tells Healthcare IT News.

"The AI-powered data optimization system has fundamentally changed our medication reconciliation process." Get the full story here 👉 https://lnkd.in/dD6iSuND

Best acting in a hackathon demo goes to...Kayla Bassett PA-C Niki Pham BSN, RN, CCRN Cameron Breze Chien Ho and Rohil Javeri for their Code Blue documentation capture + guidance I loved this project because it came from a very niche pain point that clinical members of the team experienced. I also think this actually does a few very difficult things! Picking up on who’s speaking when everyone is yelling, figuring out what’s being said, and capturing the documentation needed. On top of that, this is an area where latency really matters - and it’s clear the models have gotten a million times better on this front. This project gives a glimpse into what it looks like where an AI is giving next steps to whoever has the “hands on the body” of the patient, which is probably where healthcare is moving — you can see all of the hackathon projects here: https://lnkd.in/ecq68xHR
