Mass General Brigham pilot: AI tool helped optimize palliative care utilization
Fierce Healthcare, by Anastassia Gliadkovskaya; 2/2/24
Artificial intelligence can help identify easy to miss patients who might be good candidates for a palliative or hospice care referral, a recent pilot at Mass General Brigham (MGB) revealed. ... Over the course of the pilot, 9% of 1,522 MSSP ACO patients were recommended for a consult by the tool, with 40 receiving inpatient palliative consults. An estimated 17 of those would have been missed without the Radial tool.
