Impact of Automation in Healthcare Industry

The healthcare industry is suffering a profound transformation with the integration of automation technologies. Automation, driven by progresses in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, and data analytics, is revolutionizing various aspects of healthcare delivery, significantly impacting efficiency, accuracy, and patient outcomes. One of the foremost areas experiencing the impact of automation is administrative tasks. Automation streamlines workflows by handling routine administrative duties such as appointment scheduling, billing, and maintaining electronic health records (EHRs). AI-powered systems can analyze huge amounts of data, reducing administrative errors and enabling healthcare providers to focus more on patient care. This shift enhances operational efficiency, minimizes paperwork, and mitigates the risk of errors, ultimately leading to cost savings for healthcare institutions. Moreover, automation is reshaping diagnostics and treatment procedures. AI algorithms excel in...

Chatbots and NLP support self-service automation

The foundation of self-service automation is its knowledge base. Each entry in a knowledge base should answer a question and solve a single problem clearly and precisely from start to finish. In order to function optimally for self-service, it has to be robust, organized and, above all, accessible. This means that articles in an online content library are highly searchable. Self services can be made available to customers in login-protected areas or as a chatbot that can answer questions about products, services, orders, etc. directly.


Chatbots and NLP support self-service automation

As part of self-service automation, chatbot technology enables the right content to be displayed to the right people using, for example, keywords and machine intelligence. More and more people prefer chatbot interactions in customer service, as chatbots can solve problems quickly and answer questions precisely without the customer having to wait and thus contribute significantly to a positive customer experience. A recent study has shown that 80 percent of customer inquiries are resolved by chatbots without the intervention of a customer service representative.

Using Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning (ML) helps the bot understand the quirks and variations in the way people type or speak. It helps the bot understand the customer's intent in order to keep track of relevant item recommendations. ML allows the bot to get smarter over time, so its accuracy will continuously improve. With the right self-service automation, customer inquiries can even be processed completely automatically by using the appropriate knowledge based on the recognized category and context.

Self service evaluation

Self-service automation delivered through workload automation or an enterprise scheduling platform can typically be connected to any application or system in the organization. This leads to a potentially endless list of use cases for self service automation.

Given these prospects and the undisputed benefits, many companies are tempted to automate all services as self-service. But not all service cases are suitable for delivering a good self-service experience, especially when the automation of the service workflow is limited.

In order to identify the services suitable for meaningful and successful self-service automation, each use case should be checked for

• which self-service benefits can be expected for the company and the customers and

• how complex the implementation of self service is, which is determined by the sequence of activities required to complete a service request, e.g. For example, creating records, obtaining approvals, or running scripts.

Giving in to the "first come, first served" urge is certainly not a good decision. The added value of an automated self-service depends crucially on the degree of coverage of the self-service results with the findings from the customer journey analysis. The number and type of activities necessary to provide the service, the requirements for user input, and the security and data risk, including regulatory and compliance risks, determine the complexity of the solution.
