Wearing an N-95 mask, a full-body yellow gown, and latex gloves, Rebecca Hamilton, a newly registered nurse, was ready for her fourth shift on the medical surgery floor at a local South Florida hospital. Full of nerves and grateful for the opportunities afforded to her, Rebecca's career as a Black registered nurse is beginning at a time when the United States is encountering the dueling pandemics of COVID-19 and racial injustice.

Harnessing Healthcare’s Data Explosion With AI-Based Natural Language Processing

Harnessing Healthcare’s Data Explosion With AI-Based Natural Language Processing

In 2020, the amount of healthcare data created globally was an estimated 2,314 exabytes — which is an unfathomable amount when you consider a single exabyte is equivalent to one billion gigabytes. While it may be hard to wrap one’s head around such a figure, this much is clear: To make sense of such healthcare’s ever-growing volumes of data, we need advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools, to enhance user productivity and minimize burdensome searches. One of the most promising AI technologies to help manage huge volumes of data is natural language processing (NLP). NLP is a branch of linguistics, computer science and AI that enables computers to read, understand and structure large volumes of human prose (i.e., natural language). Though NLP has been around for decades, the explosion of healthcare data in recent years has made it an increasingly valuable tool for interpreting and filtering all types of medical text to make the data more useful to clinicians, researchers, payers and other stakeholders.

Three Tips For Working With Partner Agencies In The Healthcare Space

Three Tips For Working With Partner Agencies In The Healthcare Space

Unless your agency is full-service, it is very likely that your client will bring on other shops offering different specialties, and you may be expected to collaborate with them. This is especially true in the healthcare vertical, where the various services that agencies provide often require highly specific skill sets and know-how for navigating legal and regulatory requirements. My agency has collaborated with multiple partner agencies in the healthcare space, several of them on many different lines of business. Working as the stand-alone agency to develop, launch and manage a marketing campaign for a treatment or other healthcare product with ambitious performance goals is hard enough, but a host of other challenges arise when your team must coordinate with other agencies to accomplish your client’s objectives. If you are currently on an agency team working with partner shops on a health-related account, are expecting to do so or are just curious about this vibrant corner of the advertising world, then here are three tips to help set your agency team and your partners up for success.
