How AI Inside Clinical Workflows Is Unlocking Patient Throughput
Jonathan Shoemaker joined ABOUT in 2023 as Chief Executive Officer, bringing more than 25 years of health system and information systems experience with a proven track record of transforming and delivering initiatives and solutions that improve healthcare delivery, operations, and growth.
Upholding “Do No Harm” in the Age of AI
“First, do no harm” is a core healthcare principle attributed to Hippocrates, the ancient Greek physician who is considered by many to be the “father” of modern medicine. But as the demand for healthcare continues to increase in the face of ongoing clinician shortages, “do no harm” becomes an increasingly difficult goal. Gaps and delays in moving patients through their care can lead to patient safety issues. These safety issues can lead to further delays, causing a downward cycle.
The battle for the bed: How intelligent patient flow gives hospitals an edge
By Jonathan Shoemaker Hospitals today are fighting a daily battle – not just for resources, staff, or space, but the staffed bed for the acute inpatient stay. The ability to move patients seamlessly through the acute patient journey is increasingly constrained by post-pandemic realities: staffing shortages, rising costs, and increasingly complex patient needs. These challenges are not going away anytime soon.
From Admission to Discharge: How AI Reduces Hospital Length of Stay
AI-driven patient flow technology is transforming healthcare by streamlining patient journeys and reducing length of stay (LOS) in hospitals. These tools facilitate visibility to real-time insights, optimize patient progression, and enhance discharge planning. The result is improved patient transitions, enhanced patient experience and outcomes, and better capacity and resource management. LOS is a critical metric for measuring efficiency of care delivery.
How AI Can Help Hospitals Overcome Patient Flow Barriers Original
Although health systems have seen some much-needed improvement to operating margins in recent quarters, these positive headlines mask a disturbing reality that illustrates the immense challenges most health systems still face with hospital operations: 40% of hospitals in the nation are losing money. For many health systems that are struggling financially, the key step to transforming their hospital operations lies not in hiring more staff or creating more beds.
Differentiable vertex fitting for jet flavor tagging
This work explores the use of differentiable programming to integrate domain knowledge, in the form of domain specific software, into neural networks to develop scientific machine learning systems. We propose a differentiable vertex fitting algorithm that estimates the crossing point of multiple curves. In the high energy physics setting, these curves are defined by particle equations of motion and the crossing point represents the origin of particle production.
Improved Care Coordination with AI and Automation
By Jonathan Shoemaker Every day, healthcare organizations from across the spectrum are proving their resilience. With many in the industry confronted with inflation, labor shortages, employee burnout, and other operating challenges, they nonetheless persevere and make the best of a difficult business environment. Many of the same barriers are likely to remain for the foreseeable future.
Transforming Hospital Discharge Processes Drives Better Patient Outcomes

Orchestrating Care in the New World of Distributive Access
We’re at a fascinating time in healthcare as it relates to patient access and flow. Healthcare is coming out of that period of change and disruption from the pandemic, which made us realize we weren’t quite as ready with our infrastructure and ability to communicate and collaborate as we – and most Americans – thought we were. Healthcare professionals try so hard to take care of all of us, and they do an excellent job.
The Last Mile: How Hospitals Can Use Data For Better Care Orchestration and Patient Flow
The healthcare industry has experienced an explosion in data volume in recent years, leaving some providers wondering how to realize the full value of this information to improve clinical, operational, and financial outcomes. Healthcare data holds the ability to drive a transformation of healthcare, improving everything from the accuracy of diagnoses to the effectiveness of treatments, but all that data adds up.
