Munjal Shah, CEO of Hippocratic AI, will present on the transformative role of generative AI in healthcare at the upcoming West Coast Digital Healthcare Innovation Summit in La Jolla, California. Since co-founding Hippocratic AI in 2022, Shah has focused on developing a safety-centric large language model for non-diagnostic applications, such as patient education and chronic care management. His goal is to address the healthcare workforce shortage and improve access to quality care through “super-staffing” with AI. The summit will serve as a platform for Shah to discuss AI’s integration into healthcare, covering topics like ethical considerations, safety, and equity in access.
The summit’s agenda also includes discussions on commercial contracts, digital health financing trends, regulatory impacts during election years, and the transformation of clinical trials via digital health technologies. Other focal points are the evolution of value-based care, healthtech-fintech intersections for patient affordability, and incentivizing healthy behaviors. The event will conclude with the 2024 Digital Healthcare Innovator Award presentation. Hippocratic AI, backed by investors like General Catalyst and Andreessen Horowitz, aims to make a significant global impact with its safe Health General Intelligence (HGI) technology.
