AI-powered technology keeps the focus on the member2
Strong doctor-patient relationships build lasting trust and drive high satisfaction for your clients and their employees. At Kaiser Permanente, our doctors use ambient listening AI to reduce administrative burdens, allowing them to focus on what matters most — connecting with members. This results in more engaging interactions, better health outcomes, and a higher-quality experience for your clients’ employees and their families.
Remote patient monitoring for better care — anywhere
We use remote patient monitoring to deliver more proactive care, helping to prevent complications before they become costly claims. Real-time tracking automatically updates a member’s electronic health record, allowing clinicians to catch issues early and adjust treatment as needed. This leads to better medication adherence, fewer hospital visits, and healthier employees — helping the businesses you support save costs while keeping their workforce strong.
