AI Healthcare Case Studies

TL;DR: 12 healthcare organizations deploying AI. Elanco saved $1.3M through AI-powered processes. American Addiction Centers reduced documentation from 12 hours to minutes. Infinitus achieved 5x improvement in prior authorization workflows.

Why This Page Exists

Healthcare has massive documentation burden (clinicians spend 50%+ of time on paperwork) and high-stakes decisions where AI can augment human judgment. These are production deployments with measured outcomes.


American Addiction Centers

What they did: American Addiction Centers was able to reduce employee onboarding from three days to 12 hours using Gemini for Google Workspace, and is now exploring how to streamline tasks like generating safety checklists for medical staff, saving valuable time and improving patient care.

Key metrics: 12 hours


Elanco

What they did: Elanco, a global leader in animal health with thousands of manufacturing compliance documents, uses Gemini within its Elanco.ai platform to automatically sort, summarize, compare, and restructure information from over 2,500 unstructured policy and procedure documents per manufacturing site. The AI agent improves accuracy and consistency of compliance documentation, reducing the risk of outdated or conflicting information that could cost up to $1.3 million in productivity impact at large sites.

Key metrics: $1.3 million


Infinitus

What they did: Infinitus, one of the most trusted agentic healthcare communications platforms, automates clinical and administrative conversations at scale. Our AI agents powered by Gemini’s multimodal capabilities have completed over 5x more conversations than any other solution with payors, patients, and providers to drive revenue and improve health outcomes

Key metrics: 5x


Kyoto University Hospital

What they did: Kyoto University Hospital partnered with Fitting Cloud to develop CocktailAI, a medical document generation system using Vertex AI with Gemini and MedLM that automates clinical referral letters and discharge summaries. Doctors who previously spent 3-4 hours after each day’s appointments on documentation can now generate documents that require only minor review and corrections.

Key metrics: 4 hours


Sami Saúde

What they did: Sami Saúde, a Brazilian healthcare company, uses Gemini for Google Workspace to automate repetitive tasks, empowering care providers and accelerating access to care. This has resulted in a 13% increase in productivity, 100% of patient summaries being generated by AI, and more accurate diagnoses for improved patient outcomes.

Key metrics: 100%, 13%


Sírio-Libanês Hospital

What they did: The Sírio-Libanês Hospital adopted Gemini for Workspace for more than 10,000 employees, boosting productivity while ensuring LGPD compliance and data security.

Key metrics: 10,000 employees


Waystar

What they did: Waystar delivers mission-critical infrastructure that healthcare providers need to get paid, capturing and normalizing financial and clinical data across more than one million providers. By embedding Google Cloud’s Gemini models directly into revenue cycle workflows, Waystar’s AltitudeAI platform has prevented more than $15 billion in denied claims in under a year and reduced time spent on denial appeals by 90%.

Key metrics: $15 billion, 90%


Beep Saúde

What they did: Beep Saúde, the largest home health company in Brazil, implemented an AI-powered last-mile dynamic routing system with Google Maps to optimize its operations and manage a 10% cancellation volume. The company also uses AI to speed up the processing of medical orders, aiming to reduce costs and increase efficiency to boost its expansion plans in Brazil.

Key metrics: 10%


Gleamer

What they did: Gleamer, a French AI radiology company deployed in over 2,500 healthcare institutions across 45 countries, uses Med-PaLM and Gemini on Vertex AI to automate radiological report generation. The platform processes over 35 million exams annually and demonstrates a 30% improvement in lesion detection, allowing general radiologists to reach specialist-level performance.

Key metrics: 30%


Recursion

What they did: Recursion is a leading biotech company driven by a mission to decode biology and industrialize the process of drug discovery. Partnering with Google Cloud, Recursion built the Recursion OS on Cloud Storage, BigQuery, and Cloud TPUs — a platform that processes more than 65 petabytes of data, runs up to 2.2 million experiments a week, and has already pushed some target discovery programs to preclinical studies in just 18 months while cutting the cost of model inference by as much as 50%.

Key metrics: 50%, 18 months


apree health

What they did: apree health uses Google Workspace to implement a Zero Trust security solution with granular access controls and device management, centralizing its data access and protecting sensitive patient data while quickly migrating nearly 1,000 users from its previous collaboration solution.

Key metrics: 1,000 users


Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System

What they did: Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS), Arizona’s Medicaid agency serving more than 2 million people, built an Opioid Use Disorder Service Provider Locator using Vertex AI and Gemini to connect residents with local treatment options. Since its late 2021 launch, the platform has reached over 20,000 unique individuals across 120 Arizona cities with a 55%+ engaged session rate.

Key metrics: 55%


Key Patterns

  1. Documentation is the killer app. Clinical notes, prior auth, intake forms - time savings compound.
  2. Human-in-the-loop required. Healthcare decisions need physician oversight.
  3. Compliance complexity. HIPAA and regulations require careful implementation.
  4. Patient communication scales. Appointment reminders, follow-ups, FAQs.
