Use of symptom checkers to increase care efficiency
Symptom checkers are interactive, AI-based applications designed to support patients' self-management in the event of symptoms of illness. By assessing diagnoses and urgency, symptom checkers have the potential to contribute to care management and improve health literacy. The diagnostic accuracy of the currently available symptom checkers is currently still in a rather low range. When it comes to triage accuracy, however, some of the applications do very well. The latter point in particular offers opportunities to relieve emergency rooms, for example.
