A Link to the Past... of Paperwork!
Greetings citizens of Hyrule! Or well the internet. Princess Zelda here reporting live from… well my desk. You wouldn't believe the paperwork involved in running a kingdom. It's enough to make even Link reach for a Lon Lon Milk. But fear not! A beacon of hope shines from the tech world: Ambience Healthcare! They've cooked up some sort of magical AI potion that's outperforming even the most seasoned physicians in medical coding. Apparently it involves something called 'ICD 10 codes,' which sounds suspiciously like a secret Gerudo password. I wonder if it can unlock faster billing cycles?
27% More Accurate Than a Fairy's Aim!
This Ambience Healthcare claims their new model is 27% more accurate than doctors when it comes to assigning these ICD 10 codes. That's like saying a Deku Baba is 27% less likely to bite you! Brendan Fortuner their Head of Engineering assures us they aren't trying to replace doctors just… enhance them. Liberate them from the shackles of administration he says. 'We're not replacing doctors or coders,' sounds like something Ganondorf would say before unleashing a horde of Moblins. Still I'm cautiously optimistic. Anything that frees up our healers to focus on healing is a win in my book! Though maybe we can train it to identify ingredients for potions too? Asking for a friend...named Link.
OpenAI? More Like Open Sesame!
Apparently this AI wizardry is powered by tools from OpenAI which sounds like something straight out of the Sheikah Slate. They used something called 'reinforcement fine tuning technology'. I think even Impa would be impressed. Dr. Will Morris from Ambience highlights how important this coding is for comparing healthcare providers. 'It's the cornerstone for quality' or so he says. If comparing healthcare providers was an olympic sport Hyrule would bring home all the gold! We have fairies.
Investing More Than Rupees!
The big wigs from Cleveland Clinic and UCSF Health are already using this tech and the coffers are overflowing with over $100 million from Kleiner Perkins Andreessen Horowitz and even the OpenAI Startup Fund. People say they are seeking fresh capital at over $1 billion valuation but the details are more secret than the Triforce location! I'm starting to think I should invest! Maybe I'll ask Link to raid a few more monster camps for rupees…
Gold Panels and Coding Battles!
To prove their AI wasn't just blowing hot air like a Lizalfos Ambience put it through rigorous testing against a panel of expert clinicians and 18 board certified doctors. The AI surpassed them all. This is huge! Fortuner said it shows "for the first time that an AI system can actually surpass clinician experts at a very very important administrative task especially in coding." I wonder if we could get it to sort my sock drawer?
The Future of Healing (and Billing)!
Ambience plans to roll out this new ICD 10 model this summer with eyes on tackling other tedious tasks like prior authorizations and even clinical trial matching. Imagine! No more endless forms! As Dr. Morris wisely puts it 'Getting it right at the point of care is a fundamental change.' Indeed. A fundamental change that might just let me get back to saving Hyrule instead of drowning in paperwork. Now if you'll excuse me I hear a certain hero needs a sandwich and a nap.
