Virtual assistants in particular are poised to streamline vaccine information and deployment significantly. These tools help manage the entire patient journey for vaccination, all while relieving administrative burdens for hospital staff. For example, rather than having to call her doctor’s office only to wait on an hour-plus hold due to a high volume of calls, a 60-year old, high-risk patient can go to her provider’s website and access a 24/7 AI assistant that determines her eligibility and books an appointment for her first dose. This same virtual assistant will also follow up with said patient, helping monitor for side effects and schedule additional doses to ensure she completes her immunization journey safely and efficiently.
