How AI is affecting this role
- ›Generative AI summarizes 50-page medical discharge summaries into 3 bullet points highlighting 'Pre-existing diseases' instantly, cutting review time by 80%.

- ›Focus on 'exception management'—handling cases where AI confidence scores are low.
- ›Learn to audit AI outputs for regulatory bias rather than generating the inputs yourself.
Ways to get ahead with AI
- ›Use AI to generate 'What-if' risk scenarios for complex corporate health policies.
