Microsoft (MSFT) Brings 365 Copilot Capabilities to Mayo Clinic
Microsoft MSFT recently announced that Mayo Clinic, a world leader in healthcare, has become one of the first healthcare organizations to deploy Microsoft 365 Copilot.
Microsoft 365 Copilot combines the power of large language models (LLMs) with data in the Microsoft 365 apps, including calendars, emails, chats, documents and meeting transcripts, to turn words into a powerful productivity tool.
This new generative artificial intelligence (AI) service combines the power of LLMs with organizational data from Microsoft 365 to enable new levels of productivity in the enterprise. This innovative technology is being tested through the Microsoft 365 Copilot Early Access Program by hundreds of clinical staff, doctors and healthcare workers at Mayo Clinic.
Mayo Clinic is one of the first to start working with Copilot tools to enable staff experience across apps like Microsoft Outlook, Word, Excel and more.
Generative AI has the potential to support Mayo Clinic’s vision to transform healthcare. For example, generative AI can help doctors automate form-filling tasks. Administrative demands continue to burden healthcare providers, taking up valuable time that could be used to provide more focused care to patients.
Microsoft 365 Copilot has the potential to give healthcare providers valuable time back by automating tasks. Google is already testing its Med-PaLM 2 AI chat technology at Mayo Clinic and other hospitals.
