by Jeff Elton Vice Chairman of Concert AI 07/23/2025 Leave a Comment

AI's Critical Role in Solving Healthcare's Capacity Crisis

America's healthcare system is fighting battles on several fronts: surging patient needs across specialties, an aging clinical workforce, and escalating provider burnout.
