Keywords:
AI, Predictive Analytics, Electronic Health Records, Patient Outcomes, Healthcare Technology, Data IntegrationAbstract
The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, particularly through predictive analytics in Electronic Health Records (EHR), is transforming the management and delivery of patient care. This research explores the use of AI algorithms to analyze EHR data to predict patient outcomes, enhance clinical decision-making, and improve healthcare efficiency. By leveraging vast amounts of patient data, AI can identify patterns that human clinicians might miss, allowing for early interventions and personalized treatment plans. This paper discusses the types of predictive analytics models, challenges in implementation, and the future potential of AI in EHR systems, underscoring the importance of accurate data, system integration, and ethical considerations.
