This work reflects a sustained organizational commitment to developing these capabilities as a core part of how care is delivered and supported. The purpose of UCSDH’s applied AI efforts is grounded in the quadruple aim, using AI-enabled technologies to simultaneously expand access to care, improve clinical and operational outcomes, enhance quality and safety, and support a better experience for both patients and care teams. A key focus is leveraging real-time data, predictive, generative, and hybrid models, and increasingly automated interventions to demonstrably achieve impact at scale across the health system. Central to this strategy is the Mission Control vision, which brings together real-time data and applied AI–driven decision support to provide system-wide insight and action across the care continuum, including population health.
