NEW YORK — Health care artificial intelligence company Abridge on Thursday announced new deals with two trillion-dollar companies, pharma giant Eli Lilly and chipmaker Nvidia, as it aims to gain an edge in the competitive market for software that supports doctors and streamlines hospital billing and operations.
Abridge, which is used by hundreds of health systems, devoted much of a midtown Manhattan event to demonstrating new elements of its platform that documents patient visits and offers guidance and suggestions to clinicians before, during, and after a visit.
But the billboard announcements were partnerships. Draped head-to-toe in black, on a day forecast to be in the 90s, Abridge CEO Shiv Rao announced that Eli Lilly had made a strategic investment in the company, and that Abridge had a new collaboration with Nvidia to develop “the first foundation model purpose-built for clinical conversations.”
