Students Gain Competitive Edge with Epic EHR Training Partnership

December 12, 2024

A partnership between the School of Global Health Management and Informatics and Orlando Health is providing students in University of Central Florida's health management and informatics programs with essential training on the Epic EHR. This collaboration allows students to access training modules that are usually available only to employees of sponsoring healthcare facilities, giving them practical experience with the software. The program includes simulated environments and covers various components of the Epic system, preparing students for the complexities of electronic health records and enhancing their job readiness upon graduation.

Return-to-Office Mandates Spark Exodus of Top Talent from Companies

December 12, 2024

Return-to-office mandates are leading to a notable exodus of high-performing employees from companies, as many are opting to leave rather than comply with in-person work requirements. Prominent advocates for eliminating remote work, such as Vivek Ramaswamy and Elon Musk, emphasize the importance of in-person collaboration. However, this approach may neglect the desires of workers who value the flexibility offered by remote roles. The repercussions of stringent office policies could be significant, threatening to diminish a company's talent pool and competitiveness in a landscape where high achievers increasingly prefer work environments that align with their values and needs.

Mayo Clinic Researchers Weigh the Potential of AI Algorithms in Assisting Diagnostics

December 12, 2024

In this article, Mayo Clinic Platform researchers John Halamka, MD, and Paul Cerrato examine the efficacy of AI-driven algorithms as diagnostic assistants. While studies have shown that large language models like ChatGPT-3.5 often produce inaccurate differential diagnoses, with error rates up to 83%, other AI applications demonstrate significant promise. For instance, AI algorithms have enhanced colon polyp detection during colonoscopies, effectively acting as an additional set of eyes to identify precancerous lesions. Similarly, AI has shown superior sensitivity in melanoma detection compared to dermatologists, with a recent study reporting a 94% sensitivity rate for AI versus 73% for human clinicians. These findings suggest that, despite certain limitations, AI can augment clinical judgment in specific diagnostic areas, serving as a valuable tool rather than a replacement for human expertise.
