Google Cloud Partners with DeliverHealth to Revolutionize Healthcare Documentation Using AI

Google Cloud partners with DeliverHealth to enhance healthcare documentation with AI

The collaboration is aimed at offering a solution that is accurate, fast and medically specific by combining Google Cloud's Gemini 1.5 Pro multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) models with DeliverHealth's repository of 150,000 audio hours of human-curated medical notes every month.Google Cloud on Thursday announced a collaboration with DeliverHealth, a healthcare clinical documentation company, for healthcare providers to document patient care. The collaboration is aimed at offering a solution that is accurate, fast and medically specific by combining Google Cloud's Gemini 1.5 Pro multimodal artificial intelligence (AI) models with DeliverHealth's repository of 150,000 audio hours of human-curated medical notes every month, Google said. Through this collaboration, Google Cloud's generative AI capabilities will allow clinicians to document patient care through voice, from operative reports, lab result summaries, radiology reads and inpatient notes. This can reduce administrative burdens on clinicians, while ensuring precise, billable documentation, Google said. Bikram Singh Bedi, managing director, Google Cloud, India, said, "By automating tedious tasks and improving efficiency and accuracy, we aim to help clinical documentation, allowing clinicians to focus more on patient care." "We can bring precise and intuitive medical speech engine in healthcare directly to those on the frontlines," said Sasanka Yellamanchali, chief executive, DeliverHealth. "Clinicians can simply speak and get structured, billable documentation. It's about giving caregivers more time and peace of mind to focus on caring for patients." Google on Thursday hosted an AI Startups Summit in Bengaluru where a number of programmes and partnerships for accelerating the growth of AI startups were announced. These programmes support early-stage AI founders by helping them gain customers for their solutions using Google Cloud. The company recently introduced the Emerging ISV Partner Springboard, a 12-week programme for accelerating growth of AI startups. Participants will receive support for building go-to-market assets, access to Google AI experts for product refinement, guidance on technical architecture, best practices, and streamlined onboarding to Google Cloud marketplace. Manish Gupta, senior director, research, Google DeepMind, said, "These initiatives will provide critical support and resources to early-stage founders, helping them build and scale AI-powered businesses." Early-stage founders will receive support through the Google for Startups Cloud Programme, which will now provide $200,000 in Google Cloud credits over two years. AI startups will receive support with $350,000 in credits, to meet the increased computational demands of AI development. The company has also partnered with Y Combinator to provide access to Nvidia H100 graphics processing units and Google Cloud tensor processing units, cloud credits, support and mentorship to its summer 2024 cohort of AI startups. Google is also collaborating with early-stage accelerators and incubators, including 500, StartX and Berkeley Skydeck, to provide early-stage founders with a package of Google Cloud credits, expert guidance and technical workshops. The company also announced that it is launching Startup School: GenAI, a four-week immersive training programme designed for startups to leverage AI. Since October 29, this free online series has been offering live, interactive classes led by Google AI experts. Participants will gain practical experience with generative AI, explore the latest Google Cloud AI innovations and learn best practices for developing and deploying AI solutions. The curriculum covers a range of topics, from foundational concepts to advanced techniques, equipping startups with the knowledge and skills needed to build AI products and services.

Google Cloud to Automate Clinical Documentations for DeliverHealth

The AI solution will use medical vocabulary for speech recognition Google Cloud announced a collaboration with DeliverHealth, a clinical documentation and digital health platform, on Thursday. The announcement was made at the Google Cloud Startup Summit 2024 India event in Bengaluru. The strategic partnership will combine the Mountain View-based tech giant's Gemini AI models with the large data repository of the health tech platform. Alongside, Google Cloud also shared that it is expanding the role of AI and cloud technology in India's startup ecosystem. The expansion is aimed at introducing AI innovation for Indian startups to spur accelerated growth cycles. A large part of healthcare involves documenting patient journeys, starting from diagnosis and assessment to rehabilitation. The process involves noting down critical health information about patients which becomes the basis for treatment as well as follow-up visits. DeliverHealth already operates in the digital health space and offers solutions to clinics to digitize such information. Now, with this collaboration with Google Cloud, the health tech platform will combine its repository with the Gemini 1.5 Pro AI models to co-develop unique solutions for healthcare institutions. In a press release, the tech giant said that the Gemini AI model will be trained on DeliverHealth's extensive repository of 1,50,000 hours a month of human-curated medical notes. With this training, the two entities will develop an AI model that uses medical vocabulary for speech recognition. It will also enable clinicians to use detailed medical language and natural language processing to document patient journeys. This would enable doctors and other support staff to create accurate documents for the patient based on their conversations, Google claimed. One obvious benefit would be that doctors will be able to fully focus on patient care without worrying about the documentation process. They will also be able to easily access patient documents without having to run detailed searches of the repository. "Our collaboration with DeliverHealth is a reflection of our shared commitment towards innovation through the transformative potential of GenAI by automating tedious tasks and improving efficiency and accuracy," said Bikram Singh Bedi, Vice President and Country MD, Google Cloud India.

Google Cloud Unveils New Initiatives To Foster Indian AI Startups

The event also saw Google Cloud announcing a partnership with healthtech startup DeliverHealth to build clinical documentation solutions Google Cloud has announced a slew of new partnerships and programmes to foster the growth of early-stage artificial intelligence (AI) startups in the country. The initiatives were announced at Google's AI Startups Summit in Bengaluru on Thursday (November 7). At the event, the company said that select early-stage founders will receive $200K in Google Cloud credits under its Google for Startups Cloud Program. Additionally, AI-first startups selected under the same initiative will be able to avail $350K in Google Cloud credits. In a statement, Google also said that it has partnered with incubator Y Combinator to offer access to NVIDIA H100 graphics processing units (GPUs), Google Cloud tensor processing units (TPUs), cloud credits and mentorship to startups selected under its Summer 2024 cohort of AI-first startups. Additionally, Google will collaborate with the likes of accelerators and incubators such as 500, StartX, Berkeley Skydeck, among others to offer guidance, and technical workshops to budding AI startups in the country. Meanwhile, the company also touted its recently launched "Emerging ISV Partner Springboard" initiative at the event. The 12-week programme will offer support to AI startups for building go-to-market assets, product refinement, guidance on technical architecture, best practices, among others.
