AI applications improve communication between healthcare providers and patients by using tools like chatbots to engage in conversations and educate patients on their health conditions. AI also helps improve adherence to treatment plans through medication reminders, monitoring compliance, and offering support for managing medical conditions. Additionally, AI enhances patient engagement by providing access to health records, scheduling resources, and direct communication with healthcare professionals.
