Description
Artificial Intelligence is more than just a buzzword—it’s transforming behavioral health treatment, compliance, and operational efficiency. In this session, we’ll explore how AI-driven documentation tools, like MARA, streamline workflows, improve clinical accuracy, and reduce administrative overhead. Beyond operational efficiency, we’ll examine AI’s role in reducing clinician burnout and addressing high employee turnover, two of the biggest challenges facing behavioral health providers today. Panelists will also discuss the financial impact of AI, its role in Value-Based Care models, and how executives can leverage AI to increase revenue while maintaining compliance. Attendees will leave with actionable insights on how AI adoption can drive staff retention, operational excellence, and shareholder value.
