After 60 years of escalating medical costs (compared to baseline inflation) we have the technology to dramatically drop in the cost of primary care. Dr. GPT should be allowed to handle the basics. Here's how it could work initially: 1. Dr. GPT verbally take the patient's history. 2. Anything flagged as high risk routes to an actual physician. 3. Allow Dr. GPT to request routine blood work. 4. Any highly abnormal blood work routes to an actual physician. 5. Allow Dr. GPT to prescribe routine things like blood pressure medicine, statins, etc for routine, chronic conditions. #OpenAI, #Oracle, or #epic really ought to be running a clinical trial on this. The clinical endpoint should be something like the number of adverse outcomes by the GPT as compared to the human physician. Success would be the GPT having either the same or less adverse outcomes. Our biggest obstacle, at this point, is not technical, but regulatory.
