Artificial Intelligence✓ Regression analytics
✓ Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
✓ Supervised machine learning
✓ Unsupervised machine learning
✓ AI-driven solutions must have foundation of trust &
transparency
M E D U I T F H A W E B I N A R

✓ RPA can access multiple systems
✓ New scenarios can be routed to SME
✓ Actions taken manually to train system
TIPS
M E D U I T F H A W E B I N A R
Prediction Tools➢Leverage latest
technology in predictive analytics fueled by AI
➢Tools should drive some action or change in workflow to generate ROI
✓ Patient’s propensity to pay
✓ Payer’s probability of if & when will pay
✓ Patients who are “Presumptive Need”
TIPS
M E D U I T F H A W E B I N A R
LIVE POLLWhich types of scoring do you or your vendors currently use? Check all that apply.
(a) Patient balance propensity to pay score/segment or credit score
(b) Presumptive charity scoring
(c) Payer denial prediction
(d) None of the above
