About the Event:

Healthcare systems are under pressure to deliver more and better care with limited resources. At the same time, Health care is entering a new era where the advent of “big data” and artificial intelligence bring tremendous opportunities to revolutionize the profession. In order to guide the development of new digital technologies like AI at an acceptable scale, alignment of policies and regulations is essential to ensure effective integration of AI in healthcare delivery. In order to be purposeful, data must be analyzed, interpreted and used to improve patient care. As the leading provider of dialysis products and services, Fresenius Medical Care has operationalized a suite of more than 20 machine and deep learning algorithms in clinical and operational needs to the benefit of patients, payors and the healthcare system in North America and will share experiences of its journey in AI in chronic kidney disease.
