Summary
Concierge healthcare, characterized by patients paying extra for personalized access to physicians, is evolving with the integration of artificial intelligence (AI). This evolution aims to enhance patient care by reducing wait times for specialists and test results, potentially allowing primary care physicians to manage larger patient panels. As a result, AI could alleviate the physician shortage crisis and make healthcare delivery more efficient and accessible. This shift challenges traditional hospital models as patients gain more autonomy in managing their care.
