Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly becoming part of many
aspects of life, and healthcare is no exception. Although
algorithms, machine learning and forms of AI have been used in the
delivery and funding of healthcare for a number of years, the
emergence of successful large language models (such as ChatGPT) is
increasing the interest in how we can practically use AI in
healthcare delivery and health funding/insurance.
Given these trends, the "Digital Health" Project Team of the IAAHS
will be called the "AI and Digital Health" Project
Team going forward. This is to highlight our current
increased focus on AI. The vision of the project team is to share
and expand knowledge about the uses of data and technology in both
the delivery and funding of healthcare.
With our new focus, we would like to invite you to be part of this
exciting project team. Aside from making new global actuarial
connections through the team, you will have opportunities to
interact with interesting, groundbreaking companies that make a
real difference in the world of healthcare, to organize and
facilitate webinars and to potentially publish material. By being
involved, you will keep yourself and others in the profession up to
date with the latest developments in AI and digital health.
Please reach out to the IAA Sections at iaasections@actuaries.org if you would like to
join our team!
