- The AI-powered prediction software uses routinely collected hospital data to identify patients who require immediate preventative support to avoid future, unplanned visits to the hospital. Notable implementations include North East London, South Tees Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Wolverhampton, and Norfolk Community Health and Care NHS Trust. The initiative has shown significant results with South Tees reporting visits reduced from 33 times to half per year for HIU individuals, Wolverhampton reducing hospital attendance by 58%, and Norfolk reporting 58% reduction in A&E attendances from frequent attenders and 62% reduction in hospital admissions.
