The government plans to use data from Apollo Hospitals, All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, and Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai in the initial attempt.
The government plans to create a clinical decision support tool similar to ChatGPT to help clinicians boost diagnostic accuracy and productivity, News18 has learned.
Developed using the latest technologies in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), the plan is being worked on under the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) where doctors across India will start creating digital prescriptions instead of handwriting, linking health records digital.
The National Health Authority (NHA) and the Department of Health and Social Care are working on the scheme with private stakeholders. While the NHA is an apex body responsible for implementing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s flagship programme, the ABDM aims to create a digital health ecosystem by digitizing health records, health facilities and professionals across India.
In February, Apollo Hospitals introduced a similar model, which uses a “clinical intelligence engine” using artificial intelligence and machine learning, which can analyze large amounts of data to help healthcare professionals identify patterns.
The government plans to use data from Apollo Hospitals, the All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, and the Tata Memorial Hospital in Mumbai in the initial attempt.
“We may use synthetic data initially to train the model. Later on, we are also looking at using data from AIIMS and Tata Memorial Hospital. Data from Apollo’s vast experience could also be used by integrating their tool with the government app since the (Apollo) tool is freely available to specialists healthcare, a senior government official familiar with the development told News18.
Once the digital health mission across India goes into full force, the AI-powered tool will collect and learn from the big data itself. This will significantly improve treatment outcomes and prognosis apart from supporting healthcare professionals and increasing patient satisfaction, the official explained, adding that work on the model has already begun.
ChatGPT vs. Health Tool
ChatGPT, which was released in November last year, aroused great interest in the technology called generative artificial intelligence. This technology is used to produce answers that simulate human conversations.
Created by OpenAI powered by Microsoft, ChatGPT has been trained on massive amounts of data, which makes the application competent in producing, summarizing, and translating text along with answering queries and performing many other natural language tasks.
Similarly, the Clinical Decision Support System (CDSS) – the application is in the making – will be trained on the massive amounts of data collected over the years of clinical experience gained by Indian hospitals such as AIIMS, New Delhi, in the past several decades.
The app will make you a specialist in answering inquiries or assisting doctors. For example: When the doctor starts writing down the patient’s symptoms in the app, it will prompt and suggest possible ways to proceed with diagnosis and treatment such as a list of required laboratory or diagnostic tests.
