National Bureau of Economic Research asserts that administrative processes, which include documenting visits, insurance pre-authorizations for procedures, and billing, make up around 25% of healthcare costs. Implementing AI solutions to simplify these tasks could potentially lower total hospital costs by 5% to 11% in the next five years.
However, transitioning to these AI-based solutions comes with its own financial challenges. An Advisory Board survey revealed that one in four healthcare executives expect to see costs for AI and analytics rise by 25%. Large health systems like Baptist Health may be better positioned to fund this investment, given their resources and technical staffing capabilities to integrate new generative AI solutions.
