What the Next Generation of Virtual Care Looks Like
Post: April 24, 2026
Telehealth or virtual care is a convenient alternative to in-person office visits. However, there are some challenges to virtual care related to personalization and patient experiences. Some propose that emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technologies could be the solution needed to overcome these challenges, as AI has numerous applications in the area of telehealth:
- Virtual Assistants – AI-powered virtual assistants and chatbots can address common patient questions in a timely manner. Instead of waiting for a reply from a doctor or nurse, patients can get the answers they need, or they can be directed to the appropriate party when in need of more detailed information.
- Data Analysis and Summaries – Having AI programs assess patient data can help with diagnosing and treatment. It can also create an overview of a person’s health status using the many complex details within their health records. This overview could prove beneficial during emergencies when a patient might not be able to communicate their history.
- Collect Health Data From Mobile Devices – Mobile and wearable devices can record a person’s health data when it comes to vital signs, activity, and other metrics. However, most people aren’t sure what to do with this information once it’s been compiled. AI can collect this data and provide it to medical staff, who can then use it to customize your healthcare.
