The healthcare industry faces unique challenges in modernising the customer experience due to stringent regulations and the complexity of safeguarding sensitive health data. With 62.8% of physicians reporting burnout, administrative burdens consuming up to 15.5 hours weekly, and member dissatisfaction on the rise, the need for innovation has never been greater. Automation is emerging as a vital solution to address these challenges, and customer experience specialists Ushur has put together a vital guide to the technology.

Healthcare automation replicates repeatable processes, enhancing both operational efficiency and patient outcomes. By utilising artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and robotic process automation (RPA), organisations can streamline compliance, personalise patient experiences, and reduce administrative tasks.

These advancements free healthcare professionals to focus on delivering superior care while enabling consumers to access self-service options.

Modern healthcare automation integrates front-office simplicity with complex back-office processes. Platforms combining AI/ML, GenAI, and RPA ensure seamless operation.

Agentic solutions, such as AI-powered agents, leverage large language models (LLMs) to deliver natural, personalised communication, transforming patient engagement and streamlining administrative workflows.

Challenges driving automation adoption

Healthcare providers are contending with regulatory complexity, data overload, staff shortages, and rising costs. Automation mitigates these issues by:

  • Ensuring compliance with laws like HIPAA and GDPR
  • Processing vast amounts of data to improve care delivery
  • Reducing staff burnout by automating routine tasks
  • Enhancing operational efficiency to control costs
Benefits of automation
