As artificial intelligence (AI) emerges in the health care realm, it’s important to stay focused on the ultimate goals of maximizing patient outcomes and improving quality of care. How AI is used to advance and support health care is crucial to maintaining patient-centered care.

This year’s Symposium will:

  • Define artificial intelligence (AI) and how it has and can be applied in health care.
