Nvidia Teaming Up With Tech Startup To Create New AI Model For Healthcare
Nvidia and Abridge are collaborating to develop an AI model for clinical conversations, aimed at improving tasks like documentation and decision support within Abridge’s platform. The model will leverage Nvidia’s Nemotron open-source AI family and comes as U.S. hospitals increasingly adopt predictive AI tools, with 71% using AI integrated with electronic health records in 2024.
Nvidia and healthcare startup Abridge are partnering to create a new AI model designed specifically for clinical conversations. According to The Wall Street Journal, the model will enhance Abridge’s platform by automating tasks such as clinical documentation and decision support, using Nvidia’s Nemotron family of open-source AI models. Nvidia Vice President of Healthcare Kimberly Powell stated that the model will integrate clinical intelligence early in its development. Abridge’s software converts patient-clinician interactions into AI-generated notes that are contextually aware and billable. The collaboration follows a trend of hospitals adopting AI tools, with 71% of U.S. hospitals reporting use of predictive AI integrated with electronic health records in 2024, up from 66% in 2023. Nvidia is also an investor in Abridge, which has already demonstrated success in healthcare settings. The partnership highlights the growing role of AI in healthcare, including recent breakthroughs like Tampa General Hospital in Florida, which reduced sepsis-related deaths by half using AI-driven patient monitoring. The new model will build on Nvidia’s Nemotron framework, allowing for customization with clinical data to improve accuracy and efficiency in medical workflows.
