Could AI replace all administrators?

This seems like the most obvious way to trim the fat...

I dont see why it couldnt. You still need humans but not ones that you have pay moderate 6 figures

Multiple layers of admin had a flimsy justification BEFORE AI, but still managed to grow like a malignancy. This not just a matter of tech, but hopefully it helps!

Many of them yes. And I hope I live long enough to see it.

Clearly you don’t understand hospital administration. I’ll bet you there are already vice presidents of AI integration out there.

Ok, I threw this out as tongue in cheek but it’s very much a real thing:

Kaiser Permanente's new head of AI on 'two fundamental shifts' the technology will enable

The sprawling health system believes artificial intelligence should never replace the judgment of clinicians and must be carefully assessed, says Dr. Daniel Yang, who offers a closer look at Kaiser's successful rollout of a genAI tool for clinicians, among other insights.

Current hospitals and systems I agree. But new systems that are significantly more efficient cheaper will come eventually and inevitably outcompete these top heavy ***** filled disasters that we currently call hospitals.
Edit who knew that any negative term is now profanity.

just like you have physicians supervising CRNAs or midlevels, you will have an administrator supervising 4-5 AI agents.

I saw that Jeff Bezos is funding a company that will acquire manufacturing companies and streamline them with AI. I'm sure there are healthcare PEs that are already selling this concept to investors to apply to hospitals.

I think the patient facing and public facing roles will need to remain but the layers and layers and admin who only face each other is an absolute joke. They can ALL be replaced with one simple chip.

So much of administrative bs is computer based.. that can all be eliminated essentially now.. workflows need to be optimized for agentic systems not human but this is coming and coming quickly…can’t wait.
