OpenAI partners with Color Health to transform cancer care

OpenAI is partnering with Color Health to accelerate cancer patients’ access to treatment with a new copilot assistant. ?

What you should know:

• Color used GPT-4o to build a new copilot application that creates customized treatment plans for individual patients.?
• The application essentially pairs specific patient information with broader clinical guidelines and treatment options.?
• This can reduce the time cancer patients spend waiting for treatment from several weeks to just five minutes.?
• Color plans to use its copilot application to provide AI-generated personalized care plans to over 200,000 patients in the second half of 2024.?

Why it matters: Cancer patients who experience just a four-week delay in treatment face a 6-13% higher risk of mortality. Color’s partnership with OpenAI aims to ensure that each patient receives a swift diagnosis and treatment plan. By pairing the expertise of human physicians with the efficiency of GPT-4o, this copilot application could save lives before the year is over.??
