Infermedica: AI-driven preliminary diagnosis and triage tools

Written by Roger Peverelli and Reggy de Feniks - Founders The DIA Community on Jul 30, 2020

Infermedica provides insurance companies and health systems with a set of advanced, AI-driven decision support and triage tools that tackle the problem of inappropriate use of medical services and misdiagnosis. With the help of Infermedica’s products: Symptom Checker, Call Center Triage and Medical API, it is easier than ever to connect patients with the right medical services that improve customers’ performance, increase healthcare accessibility, and reduce costs.

Infermedica’s diagnosis engine is a powerful solution that uses artificial intelligence to find correct and cost-efficient care for the patients served. The AI suggests the most suitable and cost-efficient action to take such as visiting or calling a doctor, self-care treatment or going to an Emergency Department in case of highly severe symptoms. Infermedica assists patients in making the best decisions regarding their symptoms and allows healthcare companies to save money by making sure that patients use the proper services to treat their health issues.

Key benefits:

  • Minimize over and under-triage
  • Prevent unnecessary visits
  • Convert face-to-face visits to teleconsultations
  • Standardize the interview process
  • Facilitate the documentation process (EHR integration)
  • Optimize patient flow

 The technology helps companies find out what kind of care their patient needs. They will know exactly who can stay home, who qualifies for teleconsultation, who should see a doctor or who needs urgent medical care. Accurate triage results allow connecting patients to appropriate medical or insurance services.

How it works

   

The strength of Infermedica’s symptom checker is how it works with organizations’ existing software and processes.
