H2O.ai, the leading AI Cloud company, and its partner, The Center for Digital Health Innovation (CDHI) at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), have been honored with two Global Excellence Awards by AI Journal for their innovative use of AI in the public sector and intelligence automation in healthcare. The awards recognize H2O.ai and CDHI’s outstanding achievements and contributions to the advancement of AI and its application in the healthcare industry.
CDHI’s Ref & Docs Innovation, an AI-powered technology that automates the processing of documents coming into UCSF, was co-developed with H2O.ai. About 1.4 million faxes are received at UCSF annually, and the Refs & Docs 2.0.0 AI model is estimated to save more than 25,000 hours of staff time and 5,000 hours of clinician time annually. Currently in beta testing at the UCSF Pediatric Access Center, the Ref & Docs Innovation has the potential to revolutionize document processing in healthcare and reduce the administrative burden on healthcare staff.
H2O.ai is recognized for its commitment to democratizing AI and making it accessible to healthcare providers, researchers, and patients. Its platform helps organizations rapidly build world-class machine learning models and AI applications to deliver lasting impact for users across research, clinical, operational, and financial dimensions.
