Advancing care delivery with AI-driven insights

AI is reshaping how healthcare organizations deliver care—strengthening clinical decision-making, improving operational efficiency, and reducing unwarranted variation. When powered by trusted evidence and high-quality data, AI can help clinicians diagnose conditions more accurately, identify patient risks earlier, and personalize treatment plans with greater confidence. At the same time, AI-enabled automation streamlines documentation, coding, and administrative workflows, giving care teams more time to focus on patients.

Wolters Kluwer supports this transformation with solutions such as UpToDate®, UpToDate® Expert AI, Health Language®, and UpToDate® Lexidrug™, helping organizations deploy responsible, clinically aligned AI that enhances decision support, strengthens data quality, and improves care consistency across teams.

Medical AI accelerating research, education, and evidence generation

Medical AI is transforming how clinicians, researchers, and educators discover, evaluate, and apply emerging evidence. By rapidly synthesizing vast volumes of clinical literature, surfacing relevant insights, and supporting more efficient research workflows, AI is helping healthcare teams stay current with the latest advancements. Within academic, clinical, and nursing education environments, AI-enhanced tools strengthen evidence-based practice, streamline curriculum development, and support more informed decision-making.

Wolters Kluwer solutions such as Ovid®, Lippincott® Solutions, Lippincott® CoursePoint+, and vSim® for Nursing empower institutions to leverage medical AI responsibly—improving literature discovery, supporting faculty and learners, and accelerating the translation of research into practice.

Featured healthcare solutions leveraging AI

Use cases for Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare continue to be uncovered as machine learning models ingest more data and information. When used properly, the power of AI lies in its ability to parse through large amounts of data and uncover trends that can be addressed by care providers. From connecting what some would consider irrelevant data points to alert care providers about a patient's increased risk of sepsis to ensuring auto-generated patient education information arrives at the right moment, AI can significantly improve patient outcomes while reducing costs for providers and payers.
