The Future of Care: AI-Driven Clinical Pathways for Better Outcomes
As healthcare systems across the world embrace artificial intelligence, the challenge is no longer about proving what AI can do — it’s about integrating it safely, effectively, and at scale.
Newton’s Tree’s latest white paper, The Future of Care, explores how hospitals can move beyond isolated AI pilot projects to create AI-enabled clinical pathways that transform outcomes across entire services. Drawing on lessons from both the NHS and US health systems, it outlines a practical model for unifying people, platforms, and policies around a shared AI infrastructure.
Through a detailed case study in orthopedic surgery — from GP referral to post-operative follow-up — the paper demonstrates how connected AI solutions can reduce referral-to-treatment times, optimise workflows across radiology, orthopaedics, and physiotherapy, and deliver continuous, real-world evidence for system-wide improvement.
The report also addresses the most pressing implementation challenges — from data fragmentation and governance to workforce readiness — offering mitigation strategies built on federated data integration, shared governance by design, and enterprise AI teams.
“AI-enabled clinical pathways represent the next evolution in digital transformation. They unlock the compounded benefits of integrating intelligence at every step of care delivery.”
