AI could make healthcare more affordable—or add to its costs. Surescripts Chief Executive Officer Frank Harvey joins a panel with the Hopkins Business of Health Initiative to explore where AI’s impact on costs is headed.

Key takeaways
  • When all criteria are met, Prior Authorization Automation can return decisions in seconds, so patients start therapy sooner instead of waiting on paperwork. 
  • Adjusting a dose shouldn’t have to wait for the next office visit. As more pharmacists work at the top of their license, they can partner with prescribers and use AI to tailor doses to get more out of the medications patients already take. 
  • AI won’t lower healthcare costs on its own. Whether savings reach patients depends on how care is paid for.

Watch the full panel discussion below.
