Northwell Health launches AI-powered virtual primary care platform with K Health

Northwell Health has teamed up with K Health to introduce Northwell Primary Care Now, a virtual primary care service powered by K Health’s clinical-grade AI. The platform offers 24/7 access to Northwell clinicians and integrates directly into Northwell’s existing system, ensuring continuity across in-person and digital care.

In advance of their doctor’s visit, patients begin by speaking with a personalized AI Medical Chat that collects information about their symptoms and organizes it for a physician. The patient is then connected with a doctor virtually or directed to an in-person appointment. By the time the physician sees the patient, the intake is already complete, making the visit faster and more focused.

“This new joint venture represents a significant step forward in making quality healthcare more accessible to our patients. By integrating K Health’s AI platform with our existing care services, we’re expanding our ability to deliver comprehensive primary care that meets patients where they are.” – John D’Angelo, CEO of Northwell Health.

“We are redefining primary care and defining a new patient centric standard of care. The K Health technology will be available to millions of patients across numerous health system partnerships that K Health has formed across the country. The partnership with Northwell represents a tremendous opportunity to change primary care for the better of patients and providers.” – Ran Shaul, Co-founder & CPO at K Health.

Northwell Health joins other health systems, including Cedars-Sinai, Hackensack Meridian Health, Hartford HealthCare, Mass General Brigham and Mayo Clinic, that have partnered with K Health.
