New Delhi [India], July 20 (ANI): NITI Aayog Member-Health VK Paul said that with Artificial Intelligence, the digital health “scene” in the country is set to change “very rapidly”.
“Artificial Intelligence is going to change health care practice, public health and health professional education. We are at the cusp of revolution. Digital health has been evolving period of time but with AI, machine learning, deep learning, intelligent learning and intelligent roboticsm the scene is set to change very rapidly,” Paul said speaking to ANI on Friday at the third CII Digital Health Summit.
The summit, themed ‘Leveraging AI for Improving Health Outcomes,’ was organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) in the national capital on Friday.
Paul further said that the country should strive to lead the world in digital health and every sector of the society should contribute to it.
“In today’s summit we can see some very significant developments which are happening at a rapid pace. India’s destiny is to lead the world in digital health, and in AI for health. That is the endeavour that we should really work towards. Policy enablers, private sector, industry, academia can contribute to the health of India, India’s people and people at large in the globe,” the NITI Aayog Member said.
Rhea, a robot displayed at the CII Digital Health Summit, spoke on the contribution of Artificial Intelligence in enhancing the health care system in the country. 
“Artificial Intelligence can greatly enhance the health care system in India by enabling predictive analytics for preventive measures, automating routine tasks, offering decision support for diagnosis and treatment plans, and improving the personalisation of patient care. AI can also aid in the management of medical records and resources,” Rhea said, speaking to ANI on Friday.
In response to a question about whether artificial intelligence can replace doctors in the field of health, Rhea said, “While the AI in robots like myself can support and enhance the work of doctors, we cannot replace their experience, inhibition and personal touch that doctors provide. We are here to assist and work alongside healthcare professionals to improve patient care.”
The CII Digital Health Summit brought together key stakeholders from the healthcare industry, government, and technology sectors to explore the transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare. (ANI)
