The future of payment integrity lies in the ability to harness Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Generative AI (GenAI) to improve outcomes. Yet, achieving measurable success requires more than just adopting technology—it demands the ability to set, track, and optimize benchmarks that align with your organization’s goals.
This session will dive into how healthcare payer executives can establish meaningful benchmarks to evaluate the impact of AI and GenAI on payment integrity. Learn how to define key performance indicators (KPIs) for fraud detection, cost savings, compliance improvements, and operational efficiencies. Explore strategies for tracking progress, identifying opportunities for refinement, and ensuring that your AI initiatives consistently deliver high-value results.
With a focus on real-world use cases and data-driven insights, attendees will walk away with actionable steps to enhance payment integrity outcomes through benchmark-driven approaches. Join us to discover how setting the right standards can help your organization maximize the potential of AI and GenAI, driving stronger financial and compliance performance.
