While many have taken the stance of not prioritizing IAS, “no” was not an option for the team at @UnblockHealth. It was exhilarating to facilitate some of the first IAS transactions on TEFCA" said @GraceCordovano, PhD, BCPA, Co-founder of Unblock Health.

Very disappointed to hear @ZayedYasin moderating panel at @HealthNxtSummit
on Harnessing the Power of #AI to Transform Clinical Care state “easier to transform clinical care without patients”.
🚩🚩
The future of #AI in clinical care MUST be co-creation WITH patients.
#PatientNavigation “has the potential to improve health care use, cost, quality-of-care, & quality-of-life outcomes.” Lack of evidence in metastatic/palliative setting. Peers provide non-prof/unpaid emotional support & knowledge via SoMe groups & mentorship programs. #bcsm
Cancer #PatientNavigation effectively improves participation in screening, access to care, and experience and outcomes. Prior learnings can inform the implementation of future programs worldwide. More economic evaluations are required.

🙋🏼♀️ NOT like *most* pts. Don’t deny access to MY test results by a 1-size-fits-all approach 😤Choice should be pt’s to view, or not. “While patients tend to want immediate access to blood test results, most prefer delayed release of radiology & pathology reports.” #bcsm#cancer
Since the 21st Century Cures Act took effect, almost 80% of test results are viewed by patients with cancer before the ordering clinician, a doubling over the prior five years. ja.ma/3O7ZnU0
With some evidence that claims denials are growing, seems like patients would really benefit from a #FHIR API for "claims files" to complement the medical record and claims APIs that they're already entitled to.

"...even when Life2vec didn’t take medical records into account, it was still fairly accurate in predicting mortality"
This highlights:
1) #AI power to create "inferred medical record"
2) importance of #SDOH on outcomes

"Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile." ~Albert Einstein
This acrylic plaque, a graduation gift from @EinsteinMed, sits on my desk & has been a guiding light throughout my years of patient advocacy work.
Hearing that chart summaries of patient medical records, to distill info in a record into a succinct summary, is a priority at Epic.
NOTE: patients need the capability to review any #AI generated summaries for errors & omissions.
@UnblockHealth is ready to support patients.
Sebastian Bubeck @Microsoft highlights the following as key concerns of #LLM:
👉Hallucinations
👉Biases & inclusivity
👉Data privacy
👉Explainability
👉Math/logic errors
👉Regulation
👉Does it "understand"?
In session now: @theNAMedicine#LLMs & #GenerativeAI in Health & Medicine.
Grateful for the opportunity to listen, learn, collaborate, & dream big about how AI will transform #healthcare, medicine, & give patients a competitive advantage in both arenas.
