Episode Summary:In this episode, Maribel Lopez speaks with Roni Jamesmeyer about the changing role of AI in healthcare. Roni Jamesmeyer, the the Senior Healthcare Marketing Manager for Five9, has over twenty years of experience in IT sales, giving her an understanding of the complexity of healthcare delivery. She focuses on Five9's healthcare strategy to help health systems, payers, and life sciences move their contact centers to the cloud and close the gaps in patient communications. Maribel and Roni discuss technological advancements in AI, different uses of AI in healthcare, and Roni's research findings.Key Themes:Maribel and Roni open the episode by discussing the healthcare industry's past attempts to improve the patient experience and how its goals have shifted. Currently, Roni is seeing healthcare companies working toward an omnichannel experience for their customers – meaning that they can interact over many communication channels. AI is helping the industry move forward. Intelligent Virtual Agents (IVAs) improve operations in four major ways: security, patient experience, revenue generation, and reduced administrative backend work. Different companies may focus more on some of these categories than others, but all four functions are extremely important to the healthcare industry. Roni also discusses her AI research findings. She found that AI tuning is crucial to improvement, allowing models to pick up and retain information. As these models are used, they become more personalized and more intelligent and can take on more work as a result. She also found that AI agents open up phone lines, allowing previously missed calls to be answered.
