Influence of Chatbots and AI to the Healthcare Industry

Although chatbots in general, have taken the business world by storm, it is soon evident that where healthcare domain is concerned, chatbots are veritably bringing about a major paradigm shift.

And why?

The modern humans, while healthy, may favour solitude, immersing in social media and other technology based distractions but when down and ill, still crave for a sympathetic and reassuring voice and an attentive ear, not to say, someone to remember the suffering and remind and urge to take steps towards cure.

Except that, by now, as children of the on-demand, instant gratification culture, waiting is unacceptable. Hence, the chatbots - the ultimate in support and assistance for a not so narrow range of tasks traditionally performed by tier-1 patient engagement operatives. Comprised of just a few lines of code, the chatbot added as a contact in a person’s favorite social messaging application immediately adds that person into bot provider’s information network.

Accessible Anytime and Anywhere

Today, it is possible to embed chatbots on websites, mobile apps, and even third-party apps like Facebook and WhatsApp. There’s no need for downloading them explicitly and registration/activation. For instance, Religare, a leading health insurer has its chatbot integrated into WhatsApp.
