Deep Medical’s AI can be used to make video calls more accessible to patients who are deaf or visually impaired. 

However, its AI can also be used to create analytics based on how a patient messages and calls their doctor. This data can then be used to help patients show up to appointments. 

In research conducted by Deep Medical, doctors were able to better plan appointments and check-ups by understanding a patient’s mobility or socioeconomic environment. During trial usage of Deep Medical’s AI analytics, missed appointments decreased by a third.
