In the life-sensitive healthcare domain, real-time access to patient information is paramount for any healthcare company. Traditional legacy systems present numerous challenges, including data silos and fragmented patient information, which can delay life-saving decisions and result in medical neglect.
By leveraging the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in healthcare, Onix has enabled healthcare companies to make the most of their technological expertise and industry experience over the years. Our latest offering is an AI-powered healthcare assistant – an innovative and cutting-edge technology solution that can advance healthcare services like patient care, thus empowering both patients and healthcare providers.
In this blog, let’s understand how Onix’s AI-powered healthcare assistant can advance this industry to the next level.
What is the AI-powered healthcare assistant?
Powered by advanced AI technology and a network of specialized AI agents, Onix’s healthcare assistant can search and summarize information, along with providing other solutions designed for this growing industry. As compared to traditional healthcare solutions, this Onix solution can deliver business value and positive outcomes 2-3x faster, using the combination of cloud, data, and AI in the healthcare industry.
Here are 6 built-in capabilities of this AI-powered healthcare assistant:
-
Unified view of patient health records
With this patient search and summary capability, this healthcare assistant provides comprehensive patient information to healthcare professionals from disparate systems.
This includes real-time connection to:
- Electronic health record (EHR) systems like Epic, Cerner, and AllScripts
- Lab Information Systems (LIS) like Quest Diagnostics, LabCorp, and Radiology PACS
With real-time syncing of patient records and HIPAA compliance, professionals can use this healthcare assistant to search for patient information based on the patient’s name, MRN, ID, or medical conditions. They can quickly retrieve patient data, including any chronic ailments, current medication, allergies, and most recent doctor visits.

Intelligent AI agents
At the heart of the healthcare assistant is the powerful AI agent network, comprising specialized AI agents that can automate and optimize crucial healthcare processes. Right from patient intake to discharge, these intelligent AI agents can effectively streamline the entire patient experience.
Here’s the complete list of AI agents and their functions:
| AI agent name | Function |
|---|---|
| Patient Intake | Automatically processes new patient admissions and triage. |
| Bed Management | Monitors real-time bed occupancy and availability for immediate allocation to a new patient. |
| Lab Orders Routing | Route any lab order and track the results. |
| Discharge Planning | Manage the patient’s discharge process and follow-up treatment. |
| Infection Control | Monitors the patient’s infection rate and compliance. |
| Pharmacy Management | Processes medication orders and inventory levels. |
| Emergency Response | Coordinates ER triage and any critical care. |
| Telemedicine Coordination | Schedule and manage any virtual or remote appointment with doctors. |
