The premise
Risk scores alone don't drive interventions. AI can translate the score into the modifiable factors and a suggested intervention bundle for the team to consider.
What AI does well here
Decompose a risk score into top contributing factors
Draft a tailored discharge intervention list
Frame uncertainty in plain language
What AI cannot do
Predict readmission for an individual with certainty
Replace social work assessment
Override clinical judgment on discharge readiness
Practice this safely
