Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed industries around the world, and has the potential to radically alter the field of healthcare. Imagine being able to analyze data on patient visits to the clinic, medications prescribed, lab tests, and procedures performed, as well as data outside the health system -- such as social media, purchases made using credit cards, census records, Internet search activity logs that contain valuable health information, and you’ll get a sense of how AI could transform patient care and diagnoses. In this specialization, we'll discuss the current and future applications of AI in healthcare with the goal of learning to bring AI technologies into the clinic safely and ethically. This specialization is designed for both healthcare providers and computer science professionals, offering insights to facilitate collaboration between the disciplines. CME Accreditation The Stanford University School of Medicine is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Very informative, detailed and clear. I learn some new things about billing and the hospital system. A good refresher course to tell where we are with AI and where we need to go for our patients.

In High School I wanted to study computer science and Biology together, but there was no option for that career track and here I am thirty years later, full filling that dream through Coursera.
PC
This is an excellent course for anyone in healthcare who is trying to learn and understand clinical machine learning.

AI applications in Healthcare have to be xyz and we as medical students should know what those xyx values are and this course does that exactly.great teacher as well.
ET
The quizzes have errors in the answers (already reported), and peer review is buggy. Received emails saying I have feedback but unable to see. Even AI grade and feedback cannot be seen.
BA
Outstanding course content and operating platform! Tremendous learning provided by the outstanding and world-class Stanford faculty! Thanks Stanford, very well done!
LO
Good introductory course, although I must admit I was expecting a little bit a more hands-on approach. Some instructors speak very fast, so I had to keep replaying the video.
MM
An excellent course for professionals with healthcare background, specially for those who want to test the water before diving deep into AI in Healthcare.
FN
One of the most important courses in this specialization.
AS
Very well structured course. Easy to understand for those without a backgraoud of bioinformatics. And of course great mentors
AS
Very informative. Please provide options including learning of UK healthcare with assessments based on that. Will give more usability to students from UK.
AS
Course is very good. It would be more beneficial if more AI persepective will add.

An excellent course for getting a comprehensive knowledge about vital components of US (and global) healthcare system, challenges and opportunities through AI and HC data. Many thanks!
This course is almost completely irrelevant to AI. A waste of time to learn it
Good course to get the terminology under your belt. You will understand how the money flows, and how outcomes are measured. I got a ton of value from the class and recommend it highly.
While an introductory course, most if not all of the information provided is commonly found in newspapers and discussion forums on healthcare and AI. Nothing that informative or groundbreaking given the course had a cost.
I found this course so useful for me. If you're someone new to the industry or already working and want to make an impact with your business or technical skills this course will be the first step.
Even though I have been working in healthcare technology company for almost 10 years now, it covers a lot of stuff I didn't know before. The class is really interesting, and it empowers me to keep going. I would really recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn healthcare.
Very informative, detailed and clear. I learn some new things about billing and the hospital system. A good refresher course to tell where we are with AI and where we need to go for our patients.
If you know little about the healthcare industry and how it works, then this survey course is for you. I am switching careers and I knew nothing about the healthcare industry other than from my own personal experiences. I am extremely happy I took this course. The ethics portion of the course was also informative and thought provoking. I did not give it five stars because I was hoping for more AI information. Also, the certificate you obtain has several disclaimers by Stanford at the bottom, which severely devalues it.
great introduction into the intricacies of relationship between healthcare providers, payers, pharmaceutical companies, insurers, and the various payment plans and models in reimbursement of providers. Also great introduction to drug and medical device approval process and steps as related to clinical trials, and measurable outcomes.
Does not mention anything about AI in healthcare
Too lengthy , questions are not objective , instructor does not touch upon points that are meant to read and , enrollees could be other than medical field not sure why lengthy objective questions are put up , even calculations related question for non usa background person not helpful. Very disappointed with too much verbiage too lengthy modules.
I learned alot from this courses, especially about basic of health care. For examples how intermediary works, hospital policy, interprofessional, etc. The manuscript in each video help me a lot, because i'm not native speaker. Thanks to all people that contribute in making of this course.
Great overview of the healthcare system with very relevant examples of AI application across all the stakeholders (providers, payers, etc.) and many different use cases.
Fantastic AI in HealthCare course with broad topics about payment models, risk adjustments, ethnical considerations with AI models and much more. Excellent teachers!
Perfect Course. I have worked in Healthcare as an IT proffesinal for more than 15 years. This course restructures all the knowledge I gain in a readable manner.
While it doesnt go into a number of topics in depth, this is the most well structured and clear overview of US healthcare I have come across in 15 years
Very generic, it is not related to IA
kind of primitive and not useful
It's very theoretical.
