Amazon Web Services announced Thursday the launch of Amazon Connect Health. This AI agent-powered platform is meant to help healthcare organizations automate repetitive administrative tasks, including appointment scheduling, documentation, and patient verification, among other things.

Amazon Connect Health is HIPAA-eligible and connects with electronic health record (EHR) software. The platform is currently partnered with EHR software providers, data integrators, and patient engagement companies, the company said.

Still, it is its first major product offering AI agents — software that completes complex tasks on behalf of a human — within a regulatory compliant platform. Amazon Connect Health works with existing clinician software to manage the administrative workflow of providers, like medical history reviews, medical coding, and clinical documentation, the company said.

Amazon Connect Health currently offers patient verification and ambient documentation. Appointment scheduling and patient insights are in preview, and medical coding and other features are set to roll out to customers later.
