First hour: How can AI help with medical billing?
Second hour: Local pediatrician on recent efforts to send medical relief to Ukraine
Where can artificial intelligence be helpful in the future? Or, perhaps, in the present? At a recent Rochester AI conference, one presentation focused on how AI can help with medical billing. If it works, that could affect thousands of Americans who are concerned about high deductibles -- and whether they decide to seek care at all. It could affect what we pay, and how much we understand about what we were billed. Our guest explains how AI could be used. In studio:

Then in our second hour, local pediatricians are leading efforts to send medical equipment to Ukraine. Through their work with Ukraine Medical Relief Fund, Dr. Yuliya Snyder, Dr. Alex Paciorkowski, and their team of volunteers have sent blankets, wound care kits, medication, defibrillators, and other medical devices and supplies to hospitals and clinicians in Ukraine. This hour, Dr. Snyder joins us to discuss the latest on the relief efforts and how medical professionals both at home and abroad are helping Ukrainians in this time of crisis. Our guest:
- Yuliya Snyder, M.D., lead of the Child Neurology Division at Rochester Regional Health, and clinical senior instructor at the University of Rochester
