Healthcare customer service is an order of magnitude more complex than other types of customer service (e.g. e-commerce). We spend considerable effort sifting through customer service signals to identify emerging themes and issues that warrant follow up. LLMs can automate aspects of this by generating summaries for batches of inquiries in addition to our more manual tactics.

Episode groups are a common type of algorithm in healthcare, used to determine which services were part of the same visit or series of healthcare events. LLMs open up new ways of grouping episodes of care across claims and non-claims datasets and can go a step further by describing the journey of a patient in elegant prose.
