OpenEvidence and NewYork-Presbyterian, Columbia University and Weill Cornell Medicine Expand Clinical AI Tools Across New York City and Westchester

MIAMI & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OpenEvidence, a medical AI and clinical decision support tool for U.S. clinicians, today announced a collaboration with NewYork-Presbyterian and its affiliated medical schools, Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons and Weill Cornell Medicine, to deploy OpenEvidence across all hospitals and care sites throughout the Greater New York region. This enterprise-scale collaboration will place trusted, evidence-based clinical AI in the hands of providers serving millions of patients across New York City's five boroughs and Westchester.

OpenEvidence will be available to clinical staff at NewYork-Presbyterian, Columbia and Weill Cornell Medicine, allowing them to ask complex medical questions in conversational language and receive answers that are grounded in research and guidelines, with evidence interpreted through the lens that matters most: the individual patient.

“Every patient is unique, and their care should reflect that,” said Chif Umejei, Chief Information Officer at NewYork-Presbyterian. “By making OpenEvidence available across our systems, clinicians can use AI to seamlessly access and analyze medical research in real time and use that information to deliver informed and compassionate care to the communities we serve.”

“The campuses of NewYork-Presbyterian, Columbia and Weill Cornell Medicine span the full geographic and demographic range of Greater New York, serving one of the most linguistically, culturally, and clinically complex patient populations in the world,” said Dr. Travis Zack, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of OpenEvidence. “Deploying OpenEvidence across the care teams of a leading academic healthcare system and two premier medical schools provides every clinician, regardless of setting, equal access to the best available evidence for every patient they see.”
