Care Advisor offers a suite of Generative AI models tailored to critical healthcare workflows. These advanced generative models leverage Google Cloud’s Vertex AI and Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Service to streamline processes and enhance operations.

CHICAGO, September 5, 2023 (Newswire.com)
–
Productive Edge, a leading healthcare-focused digital transformation consultancy, has announced the launch of Care Advisor^TM, an AI-powered productivity enhancement tool that integrates Generative AI with existing commercial software and custom solutions within the healthcare industry.

Productive Edge Care Advisor works alongside popular healthcare platforms and systems, assisting clinicians and administrators in daily tasks, such as the manual clinical review of Prior Authorizations submitted to health insurance companies by providers. It provides real-time intelligent assistance, enabling a new level of efficiency and precision to enhance creativity, productivity, and care coordination.

Care Advisor’s Generative AI Models

Care Advisor offers a suite of Generative AI models tailored to critical healthcare workflows, leveraging advanced technologies like Google Cloud’s Vertex AI and Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI Service. The models are designed to streamline processes and enhance operations in areas including:

• Prior Authorization Clinical Review: Care Advisor’s Generative AI models power an automated chatbot that quickly addresses clinicians’ questions about insurance coverage for specific medical procedures or treatments. By analyzing the complex rules and regulations of various insurance plans, the system provides accurate and timely information on prior authorizations. This not only reduces the time needed for manual reviews but also minimizes errors, appeals, and associated costs. The result is a more efficient prior authorization process that enhances the collaboration between providers and payers, ultimately benefiting patient care.
• Medical Coding & Explanation of Benefits: Care Advisor’s AI models maximize accuracy in medical coding by utilizing advanced algorithms that understand the nuances of medical terminology and billing codes. Simultaneously, the system simplifies the communication of explanation of benefits statements for patients, translating complex billing details into clear and comprehensible language. This dual approach ensures that billing is precise and transparent, reducing the likelihood of errors and disputes. Patients benefit from a clearer understanding of their financial responsibilities, while providers and payers enjoy streamlined billing processes.
• Referral Management: Care Advisor optimizes the referral process by intelligently matching patients with the right specialists based on their medical needs, insurance coverage, and geographical location. The system coordinates all aspects of the referral, from identifying the appropriate specialist to scheduling appointments and sharing relevant medical records. This seamless process keeps all stakeholders, including referring physicians, specialists, and patients, coordinated and informed. The result is a more effective referral system that enhances patient satisfaction, reduces wait times, and ensures continuity of care.
• Care Plan Creation & Management:  Our Generative AI model revolutionizes case management in healthcare by automating tailored consent letters and enrollment materials, thereby serving culturally diverse populations effectively. Additionally, it streamlines workflow with real-time chatbot support and data-driven summaries, enabling case managers to focus on impactful member engagement and decision-making. This technology stands to improve efficiency and personalize care dramatically.

Raheel Retiwalla, Chief Strategy Officer of Productive Edge, commented on the launch, stating, “Care Advisor represents a transformative leap in healthcare administration. By leveraging Generative AI, we’re not just streamlining processes; we’re revolutionizing how providers and payers interact with patients. This technology has the potential to unlock $265 billion in annual savings, simplifying complex administrative burdens and enhancing patient experiences. At Productive Edge, we’re committed to driving this innovation, laying the foundation for improved healthcare outcomes and cost savings.”

Dr. Stephen Banco, a nationally recognized orthopedic spine surgeon, has achieved a groundbreaking milestone with the successful completion of the first-in-man spine surgery utilizing the innovative Waypoint GPS™ smart pedicle probe. This remarkable achievement marks a significant advancement in spinal surgery techniques, promising enhanced precision and patient outcomes.

The Waypoint GPS system, developed by Waypoint Orthopedics, Inc., intends to create a paradigm shift in spinal surgical navigation. By combining state-of-the-art visualization technology with standard instrumentation, the system aims to provide surgeons with increased accuracy and confidence during their cases. Dr. Banco’s successful utilization of the technology underscores its potential to revolutionize the field of spine surgery.

During the surgery, Dr. Banco utilized the Waypoint GPS system to navigate the cannulation of 10 pedicles in a 5-level PLF. The system allowed Dr. Banco to identify optimal paths for his pedicle screws prior to tapping and execute the procedure with an unprecedented level of confidence without the use of fluoroscopic guidance. The real-time feedback provided by the system allowed Dr. Banco to carefully monitor and adjust every movement, ultimately leading to a 100% accuracy in screw placement, with zero pedicle breaches, as confirmed by x-ray and neuromonitoring. 

“I am truly excited about the potential of the Waypoint GPS system,” said Dr. Banco. “This technology has the capacity to redefine how we approach spine surgeries. Its accuracy and real-time feedback empower surgeons to make informed decisions during procedures, resulting in better patient outcomes and reduced recovery times.”

The successful outcome of this pioneering surgery highlights the collaborative effort between Dr. Banco and the dedicated team at Waypoint Orthopedics, who have tirelessly worked to develop and refine the Waypoint GPS system. The achievement sets a new standard for precision in spine surgery in any surgical setting. 

“We are immensely proud of Dr. Banco’s accomplishment and the successful integration of our Waypoint GPS technology into clinical practice,” stated Jeffrey F. O’Donnell, Jr., President and CEO of Waypoint Orthopedics. “This achievement is a testament to our commitment to innovation and improving patient care. We look forward to witnessing the continued impact of this technology on the lives of countless patients.”

Waypoint Orthopedics is the first portfolio company of Runway Healthcare, LP, a MedTech accelerator fund. Runway Healthcare builds commercially ready opportunities for the medical device industry to acquire following regulatory approval. 

The Waypoint GPS™ is FDA-cleared and indicated for use during pedicle screw pilot hole drilling to provide visual feedback to the surgeon of changes in color to the tissue at the tip of the probe that may indicate contact with soft tissues and possible vertebral cortex perforation. The Waypoint GPS is indicated for use in both open and percutaneous (MIS) procedures.

About Waypoint Orthopedics:

Waypoint Orthopedics, Inc. was founded to make vertebral fixation safer and more efficient for the patient, surgeon, and support staff. Waypoint Orthopedics’ product, the Waypoint GPS, uses proprietary color-sensing technology to inform the operator of the bone/tissue type change at the cutting edge of the awl.
