Philadelphia-based Jefferson Health is partnering with digital health company Ada Health to launch an artificial intelligence-powered symptom assessment tool.
Through the partnership, Ada's symptom assessment tool will be available 24/7 on Jefferson's websites and apps. The two parties will also research how digital tools can be used in disease detection, according to an April 13 Ada news release.
The Ada tool integrates directly within the health system's Epic EHR.
"Patients live increasingly digital lives, and so integrating digital care navigation platforms lowers the barrier to entry for care while improving operational efficiency," Jefferson Chief Physician Executive Edmund deAzevedo Pribitkin, MD, said in the release. "Incorporating this technology into our digital front door will allow us to provide a more personalized patient experience and improve access to care services for those who need them most."
