#AI-powered virtual health assistants or #VHAs are quickly emerging as a strong device for enhancing patient engagement and care.
VHAs can offer a variety of services, like tracking health metrics: a patient's vital signs, weight and others. This information can then be used to identify potential #health problems early on, prevent them and make sure that patients are following their treatment plan.
It can also help through scheduling appointments with #doctors and other healthcare providers, freeing up patients time and reducing the administrative burden.
Another of its #services is providing emotional support, since VHAs can make it possible to support #patients who are going through hard times. It can also help patients to connect with other patients and healthcare providers that can offer support.
As well as answering clients by accessing and processing incredibly vast amounts of #medical #data and, in turn, being a precious resource for patients with questions related to their health. Personalized recommendations based on a patient’s individual medical history/needs are also offered.
And since it can be accessed 24/7 from anywhere in the world, it also makes #healthcare more #accessible, making it a cherished resource for patients who live in rural areas or have difficulty getting to the doctors office.
#Reducing healthcare #costs is another of its features, by streaming administrative tasks and providing more personalized care.
Due to all of these #benefits, VHAs can improve patient satisfaction, engagement and care in many different ways, some fo them not even thought about yet. By providing patients with access to information, support and services, AI-powered VHAs have the potential to completely #transform and develop patient care and patient engagement.
