We have recently developed a new AI tool—designed in partnership with OpenAI and powered by GPT-4o—to make access to cancer expertise more equitable. This AI tool will allow clinicians to bring specialized cancer knowledge into primary care, helping them build risk-adjusted screening recommendations and effectively manage treatment timelines. With the help of partners like OpenAI, we are continuing to make cancer detection and care accessible to more people. Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/gAVc7gn3

A must-listen featuring Dr. William Dahut, Chief Scientific Officer of the American Cancer Society. 🎧 Tune in below for a breakdown of the latest Cancer Facts & Figures report wherein Dr. Dahut highlights two key takeaways for employers: 1. It’s critical to normalize cancer screenings and expand access to screenings within your org. 2. With increased incidences of cancer in younger populations, it’s important to message to younger employees about taking non-specific symptoms seriously and understanding their unique risks for cancer. ⤵
The American Cancer Society’s report, Cancer Facts & Figures, is an annual touchstone to understand where we are in the fight against cancer. In this episode of the Business Group on Health podcast, we dig into the 2024 report with Dr. William Dahut, Chief Scientific Officer at the American Cancer Society, who explains the good news, like the reduction in overall cancer mortality; alongside the bad news, that a record two million people will be diagnosed with cancer this year; and the reasons why. https://okt.to/mgNJu6

“As opposed to automating what people think of as lower-scale labor to save costs, we partnered with OpenAI to focus on areas where you need a lot of medical expertise and depth, but where that expertise is very scarce and that scarcity comes at a high cost—like cancer.“ "We decided, instead of going broad, to go very deep in places where we felt there’d be a very big leverage.” Read more from CEO Othman Laraki about how we approach AI in cancer care ➡ https://lnkd.in/ebijfVpn ✒ PYMNTS, Karen Webster

Our AI copilot in partnership with OpenAI is designed to bridge the screening-to-treatment gap, bringing specialized oncology knowledge directly to doctors, nurses, and primary care physicians. For employers who provide healthcare coverage to their workers, the gap isn’t just a medical issue—it’s also a significant financial concern. Despite advancements in cancer care, the journey from diagnosis to the start of treatment remains laden with costly delays. As we address these delays with our AI copilot, we’re committed to working closely with employers to ensure our technology meets the unique needs of workforces across the country.
