to more proactive treatment for patients who require immediate medical intervention.
Telehealth has also evolved from episodic urgent care to longitudinal management of chronic diseases and behavioural health, significantly improving patient convenience and the continuity of care.
The system’ s virtual urgent care platform, Atlantic Anywhere, helps decompress physical sites while expanding access to high-quality care for the millions of people in the service area.
Sunil continues:“ This reduces avoidable emergency visits and increases continuity of care because access is a core pillar for Atlantic Health.”
For Atlantic Health, the next area of development is expanding its agentic AI use cases.
“ Our next AI era could be where we use all flavours of technologies,” Sunil says.“ We use predictive AI to predict, generative AI to generate and agentic AI will act because, in healthcare, you really drive the value where the action is.
“ Agentic AI is going to take the next level of innovation where it truly enables end-to-end AI enablement.”
Sunil adds that, because of this change in approach to AI, care will continue to move from predictive to prescriptive. However, his main focus is clear: Atlantic Health’ s next phase of AI will have responsible AI at its core.
