HHS’ Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health has launched a program to develop AI tools for managing cardiovascular disease.
The initiative, called ADVOCATE, aims to create AI agents that assist patients with tasks such as scheduling, lifestyle guidance and prescription management. A supervisory AI system will also be developed to monitor safety and accuracy, according to a Jan. 13 news release.
ADVOCATE supports the White House’s 2025 AI action plan and is accepting proposals in three areas: patient-facing agents, supervisory agents and health system participation. Solution summaries are due Feb. 27 and full proposals are due April 1.
At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
