Artera, the leader in patient communications and trusted partner to more than 800 healthcare organisations, unveiled its latest AI products at the Artera Heartbeat Annual Customer Conference. With a mission to make healthcare number one in customer service, Artera announced two new AI-powered products — Artera Staff AI Co-Pilot and Artera Insights AI Co-Pilots — and significant updates to its award-winning patient communications platform, Artera Harmony.

These advancements aim to enhance patient experience, streamline healthcare operations and reduce administrative burden.

Artera Staff AI Co-Pilot: 
The Artera Staff AI Co-Pilot is designed using healthcare conversational data to assist administrative staff in managing patient communications faster and more accurately. The Staff AI Co-Pilot includes four skills to improve patient communications, increase response time and reduce administrative staff burden:

  • Translation: Provides culturally-relevant, real-time translation for inbound patient messages and outbound staff responses using the patient’s preferred language, ensuring the language is never a barrier to care.
  • Predictive Text: Offers real-time text suggestions to help staff respond faster and more accurately to patient inquiries.
  • Message Shortening: Helps rewrite longer messages, optimizing the messages for brevity and clarity, and reduces the number of overall messages sent to patients.
  • Conversation Summaries: Summarizes patient conversations, making it easier for staff to summarize and document conversation history, including saving in Electronic Health Record (EHR) systems.
    • Available now with Artera Harmony.

Artera Insights AI Co-Pilot:
Designed to help healthcare organizations make data-driven decisions, the Artera Insights AI Co-Pilot analyzes patient engagement data to provide actionable insights and timely recommendations. Currently available are:

  • Smart No-Show Reports: Using predictive analytics, Smart No-Show Reports identify patients at risk for missing appointments, offering healthcare providers the opportunity to intervene, engage and ideally improve care.
    • Available now with Artera Harmony.
