Core Solutions and OPEN MINDS Form AI Advisory Board
In a pioneering move to enhance the behavioral health landscape, Core Solutions and OPEN MINDS revealed the formation of an AI Innovation Advisory Board. This collaborative body is dedicated to spearheading the thoughtful incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) into the realms of mental health, substance use disorders (SUD), and intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The initiative emphasizes a strong ethical commitment, aiming for responsible AI practices in delivering care.
The establishment of this advisory board represents a critical step in Core Solutions' broader vision of improving the quality and accessibility of behavioral health services. As a leader in AI-driven electronic health record (EHR) systems, Core Solutions is setting a precedent for integrating cutting-edge technologies into the healthcare sector. Ravi Ganesan, the founder and CEO of Core Solutions, expressed excitement about the initiative, stating, "The formation of our AI Advisory Board marks a significant milestone in our commitment to improving mental health and substance use disorder care through technology."
The team assembled for this advisory board includes a diverse group of professionals who are esteemed leaders in their respective fields. Members come from various organizations, with expertise ranging from healthcare management to operational strategies in behavioral health. Their shared dedication to advancing ethical AI practices is expected to result in comprehensive strategies that improve patient care outcomes.
Among the notable members are Mike Baker, CEO of Heritage Health, and Cindy Ehlers, COO of Trillium Health Resources. Each member brings unique insights and experiences that will inform the Board's strategic guidance. Together, they will work toward enhancing Core Solutions’ Cx360 AI platform, ensuring it serves the unique requirements of behavioral health providers.
