Voice Technology for Healthcare Associations

Healthcare Associations have started employing Voice Technology so as to keep their patients engaged, well informed about diseases and removing friction in their overall medical treatment.



Healthcare is one industry where self-service has become pivotal today considering the humongous treatment costs, thereby prompting individuals to self-diagnose their symptoms and track their vitals. Voice being the most “human”, natural, flexible and rapid method of communication, is drastically changing the way we can easily address health issues.

With artificial intelligence taking leaps and strides in healthcare, we can now see and experience Voice Assistants taking on a much more serious role than simply turning off lights or playing songs. A few examples where associations could benefit from developing their unique skills for their customers are assuring medicine adherence, symptom and de-addiction tracking, tips for a better lifestyle and many more.
