Medical Chatbot

[ med-i-kuhl chat-bot ]
noun

A medical chatbot is a conversational program that answers health-related questions, such as symptoms, benefits or appointments. Because it handles health information, any chatbot used by a health plan or provider must meet HIPAA requirements for protected health information.

From medical chatbots to healthcare AI agents

Healthcare AI agents go beyond answering. They verify the member, check benefits or claim status, collect forms such as health risk assessments, schedule follow-ups and update systems, escalating to clinical or service staff when needed.
