The integration of digital technology has become an integral part of every industry, whether it is for conducting business, medical implementations, or customer engagement. When it comes to medicine, EHR (Electronic Health Record) systems have become the backbone of healthcare organizations.  The implementation of EHR systems is now no longer seen as a luxury but a necessity for those looking to tap into the digital health space.

With the advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI), businesses have dramatically changed their operations and processes. As AI applications and tools have developed, businesses have been able to make more informed decisions and automate repetitive tasks, resulting in more efficient and effective operations. One of the most advanced AI algorithms that have gained prominence across various industries is Generative AI.

It is well known that Electronic Health Records (EHR) arose out of the need for a more portable and integrable alternative to paper-based clinical documentation. While it is a no-brainer for enterprise healthcare organizations to opt for EHR, a fast-increasing number of small practices are also catching up to this trend. 

The digital revolution has brought disruption in every field and mental healthcare is no exception. COVID-19 has provided us with an opportunity to improve the access to healthcare services.

Increasing a website's visibility in search engine results is the goal of search engine optimization (SEO) for SERPs. Increasing your medical website's authority and credibility is a key part of medical SEO.

The healthcare systems market has witnessed a large-scale shift towards more patient-centered care models in the recent past. The Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) is one of the most reliable ways to measure patient satisfaction which can help digital patient-facing and patient-monitoring doctors' apps meet leading market standards.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen intense pressure on the healthcare management sphere. The chaos that the pandemic brought resulted in many challenges for the healthcare system. Therefore, healthcare providers had no choice but to adjust their methods. Instead of in-person services, remote healthcare delivery was adopted to avoid transmission.

With healthcare organizations (HCOs) shifting toward patient-centered care, it is important to consider and measure the factors that impact or influence the quality of care. That is why, HCOs value patient satisfaction, as much as they value patient safety and clinical workflow improvements. 

A majority of healthcare data today, about 80% of it, happens to be unstructured. Most sources used for aggregating Electronic Health Records (EHR) require a considerable amount of pre-processing because most of them are not machine-readable. Natural Language Processing (NLP) and various Machine Learning (ML) techniques can, however, unlock all the potential enmeshed in unstructured data.

When it comes to seeking app-based medical solutions, physical health is often given precedence over cognitive or mental health. However, millions of people suffer silently from unseen, yet debilitating effects of mental illnesses. That is the pain area that the creators of the research-backed mental wellness app Wysa have chosen to address.
