Integrated with predictive analytics and machine learning, AI has exceeded the traditional approaches of health care contexts by focusing on patient outcomes and costs. This paper aims to discuss the adoption of integrated AI in healthcare systems, categorizing these by how AI predictive models help improve patient health by proactively estimating the course of their illness and its potential impact, prioritizing patient readmissions, and developing effective individualized treatment strategies. The research also identifies more important savings realised through avoiding redundant tests, better utilisation of resources, and shorter hospitalisations. In the current study, the authors present concrete findings for AI-driven Predictive Analytics based on realistic scenarios and quantitative data of health care systems. It also points to the fact that healthcare organisations adopting the use of AI technology have gained an objective that reduced their operations costs by 25% and improved patient outcomes whereby the readmission rates were reduced by between 15% and 20%. Furthermore, there is an evaluation of the ethical considerations of applying AI in healthcare, especially on the subject of patient’s information security. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to systematically review AI applications in healthcare and provide detailed suggestions for better understanding the general impact of AI in healthcare to enhance patient outcomes and manage costs. With advancement in artificial intelligence technology, there is a growing importance of how the technology can transform the health care industry.
