It is bounded by the fact that while we may have infinite needs, our resources are limited. It isn&#8217;t possible to simultaneously have low-cost, high-quality, and wide-access health care. Historically, choice is outside force that defines the dynamics between the three core factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.accenture.com\/us-en\/about\/leadership\/kaveh-safavi\">Kaveh Safavi<\/a>, head of Accenture\u2019s global health practice sees Artificial Intelligence as another new external force that may shape healthcare dynamics. Safavi<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/insights-intelai\/2019\/02\/11\/ai-and-healthcare-a-giant-opportunity\/#6f5013874c68\"> said that<\/a> &#8220;what we see now is a path to unlocking that triangle so you can improve one side without breaking the other.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www2.deloitte.com\/us\/en\/profiles\/dhousman.html\">Dan Housman<\/a>, chief technology officer at Deloitte, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/insights-intelai\/2019\/02\/11\/ai-and-healthcare-a-giant-opportunity\/#6f5013874c68\">said that<\/a> &#8220;we don\u2019t have enough labor to manage everyone\u2019s health all the time with a doctor and a nurse. So we need this boost of artificial brains to be able to support people.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwc.com\/gx\/en\/industries\/healthcare\/publications\/ai-robotics-new-health\/transforming-healthcare.html\">PwC found that<\/a> &#8220;AI increases the ability for healthcare professionals to better understand the day-to-day patterns and needs of the people they care for, and with that understanding they are able to provide better feedback, guidance and support for staying healthy.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/john-frownfelter-md-facp-1777557\/\">John Frownfelter<\/a>, chief medical information officer at Jvion, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businessnewsdaily.com\/15096-artificial-intelligence-in-healthcare.html\">said that<\/a> &#8220;AI has evolved to a much more sophisticated use of deep machine learning
