Embracing A.I. Without Losing the Human Touch in Healthcare

In this week’s edition of the Healthcare Experience Matters Podcast, we invite Leslie Pagel to the show. Leslie is an expert in customer experience (CX) strategy, here to discuss navigating the great balancing act of embracing technology, such as conversational artificial intelligence (A.I.), as it evolves drastically, without losing the human touch in healthcare.

She also debunks many of the fears surrounding A.I. in healthcare, such as job security issues and discusses the concerns that the patient’s experience with their provider will be robotic and automated.

Leslie closely studies and follows the radical changes that A.I. will bring to data management in healthcare. Her knowledge of CX makes her an ideal guest for this increasingly important discussion in our field.

This interview with Leslie helps us understand how to best prioritize patients’ needs while ensuring that none of the efficiencies gained from working with A.I. tools are overlooked.

As we’ve learned in previous discussions on this show, many of the advances related to the current A.I. boom present a strong opportunity to help healthcare workers prevent burnout if implemented carefully and strategically.

As peer-reviewed literature and lawmakers struggle to keep up with the latest advancements in A.I., it’s vital to proceed carefully given the high stakes involved.

When it comes to the intersection of patient care and A.I. we are truly entering unprecedented times.
